The_MonkeyKing got a reaction from domfluff in Which Demo scenarios are the best ones for pbem?
Well, now I have started all the scenarios as pbem matches... I will report on the multiplayer potential of each when I am done.

The_MonkeyKing reacted to Thomm in Demo Feedback
At least during the setup phase of the "Beach Assault" scenario I saw trench sections vanish when placed in certain configurations. I think it was T shapes or right angles.
They were still selectable by their symbol but the 3/D object became invisible.
Best regards,
Thomm

The_MonkeyKing reacted to Sir Lancelot in Demo Feedback
The LAW launchers are extended even when shouldered. I noticed this with the UK troops in Breaking the Bank, but I haven't checked other factions for this problem.

The_MonkeyKing reacted to Sublime in Redfor Campaign?
All we really need is someone to convert Paper Tigers excellent MASSIVE Redfor on Redfor "Road to Dinas" campaign, which also is branching and so big your wins and losses really seem to affect things and progress. Versus other campaigns Ive had where Id lose a mission terribly - knowing because the briefing I was the absolute last chance - and fail and after the battle still progress.
Excellent campaign and sooo prescient, people talk about BFC guessing hotspots but PT even got the civil war thing right.

The_MonkeyKing reacted to Hilts in New troop behaviour
I have to say I'm quite impressed with the new troop behaviour under fire. Not tried it with entrenchments yet but in the Bank scenario I've got several exciting inter-building firefights going on which would have been impossible before as everyone just ran away. Seems like Combat Mission is fun again! I'm looking forward to the release of the patch to bring the other titles up to this standard. Well done Battlefront!

The_MonkeyKing reacted to Combatintman in Redfor Campaign?
Unlikely - there has been no mention of a Syrian campaign in any of Steve's posts. The consistent theme from BFC for this title has been simply to update CMSF1 to the new engine so with a few minor exceptions such as on map bridges, water features, mortars and UAVs, I would work on the premise that the scenarios and campaigns (albeit updated to take into account new editor features) will be the same as those that shipped with CMSF1.

The_MonkeyKing reacted to AttorneyAtWar in Redfor Campaign?
There was no REDFOR campaign in Shock Force 1 so no Shock Force 2 will not be shipping with one.

The_MonkeyKing reacted to IICptMillerII in Redfor Campaign?
As already mentioned there are a handful of user made RedFor campaigns and scenario's out there for CMSF1 that work with CMSF2. @George MC did a great scenario called "Daraya Tank Raid" that I've confirmed works in CMSF2. Highly recommend playing it when CMSF2 comes out. Not sure if George will be reduxing it at all, but as is it's still great.
Here's the link to the scenario and accompanying PDF on The Few Good Men:

The_MonkeyKing reacted to Combatintman in Which Demo scenarios are the best ones for pbem?
Depends on your preference of course but, bearing in mind I've never done PBEM, I would say that @George MC's Passage at Wilcox would be one of the better bets.

I found a video AAR of this battle on youtube:
*** Spoilers ***
Do you guys also encounter this <LASER WARNING> - <SMOKE CYCLE>? In my playthroughs I found that I have no choice but to brute force my way through. All avenues of approach are being covered by heavy weapons it seems.

The_MonkeyKing reacted to IICptMillerII in Shock Force 2 Beta Showcase Video
Hi everyone,
Here is a cinematic video featuring Shock Force 2! This is meant to be a showcase, similar in concept to a gameplay trailer. Keep in mind this is footage taken from a beta build of the game, and things are subject to change and all that. Hope you all enjoy!

This is a recent opinion piece from West Point:

Nothing will teach you how to play CM better. But it's a quick and interesting read.

Hmmm, I can't find this scenario anywhere in my BS folder. Not under battles and not in the campaign folder either. You sure it shipped with BS?
