I honestly think they will make one in the future. But not in 2016.

Really cool list! I have to say I support number 3 far more than the rest. I would really like a Korean War or Vietnam War CM. I wonder if they should try to add an Afghanistan CM set in 2010 or 2011. I think that could be a nice addition to the Combat Mission Series. But might induce rage due to Taliban fighters picking off your Platoon Leader 3 minutes in But we'll just have to wait and see what Battlefront decides to do!

I used to have a problem like that, I couldn't type or anything. Turns out I had to click number lock or something. It's great that your problem is now fixed!

I honestly think that the time limits are fair. You're normally taking the role of a squad leader -> Battalion C/O, so there is always someone higher above you. The time limit is there also for realism. Because when commanders give orders to smaller groups (ie; platoon, company, battalion, etc...) they give them a time to complete it.

Lieutenant Crawford was a well-liked man. He grew up in a small town on the southern tip of Indiana, Owensville. His friends called him ambitious, quiet, and well rounded. He didn't really show off, but when there was a task to complete, Crawford was the man! His Senior class consisted of 17 students. He decided to become an officer in the United States Army. He graduated college with flying colors in 1942. His specialty was Airborne, so he volunteered for the 82nd Airborne. He passed and was granted the rank of 2nd Lieutenant, and made a platoon leader. Being a platoon leader is hard work. It takes a certain kind of person and a certain kind of will to handle the task. With that, you always need a second guy, someone you can count on. Crawford found Wilcox. Wilcox was a hard worker and a veteran of North Africa. He was Crawfords Executive Officer, always serious but sometimes he was laid back and fun. Crawford's company, Able, was tasked to hold the town. They put numerous foxholes and barbed wire down. Around 10 minutes into the battle, War Correspondent Jeffery Lee took the following photo. Crawford is scouting out the enemy while Wilcox surveys the situation. Around 30 seconds later, Wilcox was struck by a marksmen's bullet into the neck. He died instantly.

(Got some more shots from the game as well.) German Panzergrenadiers of the 3. Panzergrenadier Bataillon, 3. Kompanie, attack a fortified town held by A Company of the 82nd Airborne Division! A Soldat crouches next to his fallen buddy, determined for vengeance!

"These Jerries aren't going to take this town! You can count on it!" That was the last thing Corporal Fitzgerald said to Private Lyell in their foxhole. A moment after, a 60mm mortar shell lands directly on Lyell, killing him instantly. Corporal Fitzgerald had it better off, he was pierced by shrapnel in the chest, arm, and neck. He was transported to an aid station behind the front. From there he rejoined the 82nd Airborne in Operation Market Garden. He was with them all the way till Elsenborn when he was struck by another mortar shell on Saturday, December 16th, 1944. (Private Lyell on the left, Corporal Fitzgerald on the right)

Thank you to everyone! I assure you I have now made up my mind! Carson

Steve, I am amped up so much and I haven't even had one taste of caffeine today!! Could you give us a rough estimate of when you think they'll be ready? I don't want to pressure you guys or anything I just sort of want insight. If you don't want to say anything you don't have to! Carson

I'm obviously new to the forums so, Hallo! Das ist toll! (I'm of German Decent but I actually don't speak it. I just like to sprinkle it in when I write or talk.) I've played Combat Mission before and love it! I am a tactical gamer so I love sitting down and making countless scenarios in "Quick Battle" to play out in CMBN. One thing I want to know is should I buy the Market Garden & Commonwealth DLC or buy CMFB?! I want the public's view as I am at a crossroads and believe me, I am the type to shut out everything and just start screaming "WHAT DO I DO?!" Well, figuratively speaking that is what my brain does. I've also checked out some of the forums participant's AARs or DAR's. I have to say I love the community here! I have now figured out that I am, again a novice when it comes to Combat Mission. Actually, I wasn't really good at it in the first place. But I had some good inner confidence but that all washed away when I saw the community! So I hope to see your guys views and opinions on the matter! NOW FOR THE QUOTE OF THE TOPIC : "Old Soldiers don't die, they fade away.." - General Douglas MacArthur Carson
