I tried searching for this but wasn't able to find anything. It appears what I think is the IR system to not have textures put on it. I put up a couple of screenshots of the issue to show what's going on.

Same thing on my end with the first tiny scenario at night with the blizzard. Framerate tanks and recovers.

What's the best way to set up quick battles against the AI? Should you leave the force selection to automatic or human for yourself and the AI?

I was his opponent I still have the saved games if needed, although I would only give his saved games due to using a common password that I use for mine. In the future I'll start using a different password specifically for CM PBEM's. Although his saved games won't mean much if you don't have his password, but if he deleted his saves already and you can get in contact with him, I would gladly give out the save files.
And I really didn't mind the artillery falling into the middle of the field, although I may be a little biased about it in this particular instance.

- Small arms friendly fire.
- Triggers as suggested numerous times.
- Slow-motion for playback.
- Unit formations as suggested, line, column, staggered column, wedge, vee, echelon left and right, etc...

I usually just bring up the task manager so I can alt-tab out while the game is loading, and check back in a few minutes, it doesn't usually take a few minutes to load (unless the scenario is large), but I prefer to be doing other tasks on my computer then watching the loading screen.

Were the 60mm rounds that were used in September 1943 the same rounds used in June of 1944 though?

Hi Examiner2,
I'm just about to start my first CM:BN Cwlth PBEM with the "We Band of Brothers" group - see GAJ signature block. Check their "how to join" info. Goto the cmx2 section of their site, select one of the posters who is a full member, then email them with the requested info. I'm sure one of the guys will arrange something for you.
Good luck,
Thanks for the help, I e-mailed a full member, just waiting on a response.
If anyone else wants to PBEM in the meantime I also have CMFI and GL, so drop me a PM.

Be advised that it focusses primarily on the US Army and while it does include some narrative about the other Allies, they tend to be peripheral.
There are the various official histories from the other forces involved that will focus on their respective experiences.

Advisement has been taken under consideration, operation reading the book has commenced.
(The guy who names these operations is on vacation)
I'm also checking out those DoD videos, pretty cool stuff guys.

Try Rick Atkinson:
Excellent overview but not much battle minutiae.
Thanks I'll check out the book.
And Jon, even though goodwood was Normandy I would still like to check out that documentary if you could remember the name of it.

Does anyone know of good documentaries covering the Italian front? In particular I would like in-depth analysis of individual battles throughout the entire campaign if there are any documentaries covering them.
Comprehensive documentaries about the Italian front are something else that I would be interested in. Feel free to throw in a few book suggestions as well, although I am primarily looking for documentaries.

A spoiler alert on this would have been nice...
I don't think that it's necessary as the air support the allied forces get is in the briefing.
Just finished this scenario, lost one of my sturmpanzers to an aircraft bomb, it didn't start to burn though so the aircraft kept making strafing runs against a knocked out tank. Got lucky I guess. Although I did suffer around 50% casualties, around half KIA and the other half WIA.

I just bought CMFI and GL, I also have CMBN and CW, just started playing the combat mission games again. I have h2h helper and dropbox and am looking for opponents if anyone is interested.

Very good read, thanks for taking the time to write it.

Looks fantastic, any eta on the campaigns?

The pic of Hitler with the kid made me wonder - anyone know what happened to the Hitler Youth kids getting Iron Crosses in late April 45? The famed last pic of Hitler, patting the kids cheek as he gives out medals outside the Fuhrerbunker? Whatever happened to them were they all killed, does anyone know?
I actually am curious as to this as well. Sorry for the thread hijacking.

I posted the following message in the opponent finder forum, but want to post this here as I figure I would have better results as to finding an opponent:
"Hey guys, I'm interested in playing some CM:BN over PBEM. I have cmbn and the commonwealth expansion. I have never played by e-mail before, so if you could help me out with the steps I need to take that would be great. I have played combat mission: beyond overlord, and just got back into combat mission with CMBN.
I look forward to seeing you on the battlefield. o7"
