She will be turning 16 in December. Her Grade 10 History Class covered Canadian History from 1900 to present day and of course I was a big help for her WW1 and WW2 sections. When she asked if I had any books on the role of Canada in WW2 and I brought her 15 books..... lets just say her project on Juno Beach was the best in the class! Some of her friends at school like to play World of Tanks and she was griping about how it sucks to start off with a crappy tank when everyone else has uber tanks. I told her should could play with the best, if she played me in CM since everyone can have the best right off the start in CM. We have played a few battles in CMFI and CMRT, platoon of infantry and a tank. She is getting better, but with sports teams and homework it has been a while since we last played. We usually play the battle twice, each of us as either side, just to show her it is possible to win as either Allies or Axis if you use the equipment properly. No allowance in my house, everyone chips in to help out and we take care of spending money for them if needed.

How many of you Steam users can make a single purchase through Steam, install it on multiple computers, and play the same game, at the same time, on those machines? I have never been able to do it and I think it is impossible to do. I purchased two new laptops just shy of a year ago and installed all my CM games on both laptops. My daughter and I can play LAN a match anytime we want with CM. We can't however play a LAN game with any of my Steam titles as they are installed under one user name on both laptops. For this reason alone, Battlefront should stay away from Steam like it is the plague. I have ZERO interest in purchasing multiple copies of each game just to be able to enjoy a battle with a family member.

I bought all three CM1 games as CDV retail versions from EB Games in Canada way back when.

Or connecting CMFB with CMBN? Thanks for the update Steve, it is nice to know some of the backstory behind the delay.

If you send me the file I will try and see if I can replicate your issue. If you know the settings for your QB I will try and create a new file and see if I have the same issue.

Are your platoons in contact with A company hq? Can A company call the mortars from where it is? Or if it is moved further away from the mortar pool?

So big then, hey? Thanks again @benpark for all your work on this and other maps. Really looking forward to having the chance to play on them.

CMFI is my favourite game and can't wait to add all these goodies and extend the timeline. Is the First Special Service Force still in this module?

@benpark I was not thinking to have a battle on the whole map but rather was curious how much of the city would be covered. Is it a 3 km by 3km map, 5 km by 5km or have the limits been stretched and you are making for us a 10km by 10km map? From what has been shown so far it looks like you have put in a massive effort into this map and it is very much appreciated.

Wow. Totally ninjad by everyone.

Edited to bold what Steve said.

If you are allowed to say.... just how big is the Berlin Master Map?

If you setup the same battle with the same opponent are you able to choose flamethrowers and have them appear on the map?

I have never encountered this before. Did you setup the battle and send out the first turn or your opponent?

Are you confused about what he is confused about? Now I am confused.

I agree. Please keep up the great work BFC team.

@CCIP beautiful looking map. Job well done.

So I just checked the editor and no trains, partisans or SS units available. Thanks for the bone about the new Red Thunder module. If these units aren't in the next module I will hold you responsible for getting my hopes up. Especially working trains.

I bought the 4.0 upgrade big bundle and then purchased CMFB later. When I installed CMFB, it was already at version 4.0 so I would think any game you buy now will be at 4.0 as well.

You can't go wrong with any of the games. Each one has its own unique challenges and units waiting to be mastered.

I count 6 shell casings in this image, looks like he wanted to make sure that guy was dead. Revenge best served with close range automatic weapons!

A possibility with this idea would be to set the HQ units as the spot objectives and the rest of the formation as the destroy objectives. The higher up the command chain, the more value for spotting, ie: 50 points for platoon HQ's, 150 for Company HQ's and 300 for the Battalion HQ.

How about some scenario and beta testing work followed by 20 minutes of napping and then back to working on some more amazing QB maps? Please?

I keep hoping the delay means there is something big in the works, think Engine version 5 or a complete upgrade to CM3 for all the titles. I know it is wishful thinking but one can hope!
