Wouldn't it be better to email to your self since its testing the email cease fire? just a thought

Hence the problem with the squad moving in single line rather than a more spread out manner.... Well CM2 is more impressive than ever then. Thank you all for the responses.

Wow so Battlefront is taking on a lot considering there can be battalions on field shooting each other. That is some serious calculating power. Going back to the post I was reading originally then I see the enormity of complications in having tank riders. Yes I was thinking CM2 is like CM1 with counters as the basic element not the individual soldier within a squad of 8-12. I like how squads interact with other squads so the platoon dynamics are what I find is best in CM1 and CM2. Long Left Flank if Micro is what your after I am curious do you play other games with more features like that such as the Men at War series? Thank you sburke for the info

Hello folks, I was getting to know some of you in a prior not too distant posting about Tank riding which topically changed to infantry tactics/pathing/ AT around corners etc. Near the end I was struck with the idea that maybe I misunderstood the scale or representation of what the squad showed. I am new to the forum but have the CM 1's from many years ago and well played. In the representing of a squad isn't the 'game' simply displaying the unit moving but the variables/numbers/percentage covered, number of wounded within unit, moral all calculated when fired apon as a abstract of the unit? similar to a wargame with several men on a stand. OR is the 'game' computing each squad mate's fire/ his target/ weather condition/ sighting/ LOS (coverage)/ with the variable of each target squadmate? If previous is true then what does it matter how the squad looks when it moves other than aestitically (spelling horrendous) pleasing. Yes we want the troops or individual men to appear like they are moving with self-thought but does it matter at this stage of a CM2 issue? CM2 is beautiful and is basically playing like CM1 yes? If the point is how are the individuals represented then shouldnt we look to play a FPS or a game like men of war? Just curious but also am interested in understanding if CM IS representing a base unit firing on a base unit similar to a wargame. If I have a single man of the squad in the house, hanging outside the house due to graphics does that mean my whole unit is in the open? Thank you

Sounds interesting...Whats going on with this...Link dead
