Hi All ! I don't know why - i suddenly had this outburst of trying my luck @ beach assaults. I tried the Blue & Gray campaign 1st scenario Saving Private Ryan campaign 1st scenario and Bloody Omaha scenario Come on guys, the assault almost seems impossible. I can't get the hack out of the beaches, before getting 3/4's of my units KIA. Is their a 'recipe' ? (I'm not joking) As in, throw smoke? Run or Move or Slow (crawl) ? Run Zig Zag or Run straight ? Any small hints, maybe bullet points.. would be extremely welcomed ! And serves as a good launchpad to others who wish to try their luck in similar scenarios. Thanks All !

Holland would be nice... but this is Bulge we're talking about. Three-way axis between France/Belgium and Germany is appropriate. When i think of Holland, i think of Market Garden

Ok I'll have to make do with that.

Hi all . Are there presently any good helmet mods that show for instance, the two lines a captain wears ? Or oak leaves if he's a major. Etc etc. I wish to spice up some of their garb. Make the helms a bit more realistic. Thanks all.

Amazing news ChrisND ! Do you think if i had to ask whether BFC takes into account the famous beach landings for the upcoming release.. It's a lot to ask for ? Perhaps an intertwined campaign of hell on the beaches and parallel story of the 82nd 101st and others behind enemy lines? If your reply violates any rules or acts as gross spoilers I understand - but if you can tease out.... Just a bit ? I can have a happy weekend

Thanks Battlefront for this ! Much appreciated. Please, one quick/gentle question - not sure if you stated already. In the upcoming battle pack release.. will there new content, ? as in - new designed campaigns ? that have been previously unreleased.

Ok ! Gosh. It took me a year to learn that. God damn sarge. Thanks for that.

Hmm interesting - so for the arty from naval support - I do not need LOS, I simply select the HQ or spotter unit - click on point, area or line target and that's it ? Funny I thought I couldn't do this. Let me try again.

Yeah yeah I know. That's ok.. But the 4 units are located in such a way that I cannot by any means get them to look over the bloody terrain to 'spot' or 'identify' artillery spots. They just can't move... Do u have the scenario ? Do your units start from edge(corner) of screen or from edge(center) of the screen . As there is this lovely tiny terrain covered with hedges - in the center of the map.. Looks like a perfect spot.

Hi all - not sure if it's my Mac, when I got this scenario - it starts by having 4 units in a corner of the map & can't get them to move or command a LOS for battleships or destroyer fire. Is this scenario 'ok' ? Or known to have this 'glitch' ?

It's extremely well made - due to its small coy based engagements.. I wish there were many more like this.. (Sigh) Its the MOST downloaded - on BFC repo - for a reason.

@Steve can we have a campaign that links Gold Sword Juno Utah & Omaha ? + 'maybe' paradrops behind the enemy lines. hell yeah.. this probably ought to comprise easily an 11 to 14 mission campaign that i find hard no one will resist giving a ride ? Hell Yeah.

But Isil in Syria and Iraq is a pretend conflict ? It already smacks of historical and 'current' ongoing conflicts if you ask me. Making use of existing mods and skins to simulate this in current CMSF you might ask. i guess thats doable. i wouldn't call CMX3.0 bells and whistles though. The main point i agree with you, is if US is absent...

Thanks umlaut. Amazing.. So it's mainly the load time and not game speed per se, correct ? I always play with settings as balanced which gives my 2013 MacBook an easier task. If I push the settings higher... I may be OCD, but the pixeltruppen do March move run slightly slower.

Thanks for your fast reply !

Hi All., Not sure if this was asked ages ago.. just a small quick question. Mods, any mods, and any number of mods in my Z folder.... will those affect the 'speed' of the game? as in.. will it make it run slower ? Is game speed mod dependent? and without any mods whatsoever, (that is simply vanilla gameplay) would make the game run smoothest without lags. Just wanted to be sure of this. best

As long as there is one candle light - there is no darkness.

What we see now in ME. Al Qaeda, Al nusra, rebels vs Syria - it's impressive. Next game HAS to be in Middle East. It's interesting - for obvious reasons - all the rest of CM modules & games are professional armies (ie not 'terrorists per se') though the CMSF, has enemies known like no other.. What If. We will see future installments - whereby initially you think you are in a city with non combatants - then they flash an AK47 and mow a commander to the ground.

If it moves shoot it ! If it doesn't move - shoot it as well !

@dragonwynn - I meant at the Russian side. However.,, I am assuming correct ? They do 'appear' after 15/20 mins into the game. Right ?

Mission 1. Hell broke loose dragonwynn. I hate it how the russian tanks 'appear' at the back of the map after 20mins i thought i had them by surprise by moving MY tanks at the back from the right flank ! But i soon realised - I was in a surprise. let me work on the AARs for you.. i think i need 4 days/ 1 week to fully complete the campaign. Is that ok, doable ?

the modtag1 folder, goes into the Z folder guys ?

@agusto - I'm serious about war gaming excellent scenario. I look forward to more... And maybe also CMBS u said ?

Hi. I liked this scenario ! Quick comments. the recon phase was nice.. some ppl above commented that they could only see two to three at most BMPs.. HOWEVER, if you stand up your units, and remove them from the HIDE command., you will be able to see at least 2 to 3 more.. further back. The point target with arty went fantastic. The Final Assault by the Syrians was a nice surprise I won the battle as a US Minor Victory. the end report told me i occupied all positions alpha, bravo, charlie, x-ray. However, i can almost swear that i didn't occupy charlie with any of my units. could it be ? Minor bug? Just gently asking.. Other than that- I ENJOYED IT. Thanks agusto.
