I Don't have a map in particular and ill have to look around tomorrow after work. To give an example there has been plenty of times I have spent a good amount of time building a nice troop composition as the attacker just for the enemy defense plan to be two huge groups hiding in the forest not near the objectives. Attached isn't a great example but I find on new maps (especially new games) this doesn't happen as much and the AI plans are more fleshed out.

Yeah fresh install I'm still at 482.

I have 482. I will do a full reinstall and update if it changes.

Did Rome to Victory add a lot of QB maps? When ever I launch a quick battle and look through the maps I don't see many new ones. I see that some of the maps now have R2V as a requirement, but the maps themselves are not new. Same with GL, I only see a small handful of QB maps. Looking at the store pages I see that both R2V and GL mention adding quick battle maps. I only ask because I seldomly play against real people and I find that the AI plans in DLC maps are far better.

How many new quick battle maps are being added?

I agree, it'll have been 1 year at the end of the month since each of the new modules were originally teased.

Any word on the update, i'm fiending for more CM content.

I'm just a little curious if any of you feel the same way as me on how quick gunners from half tracks, mobile AA, tanks, ETC, get killed from small arms fire. I know they're sitting ducks but a lot of times when I roll them into a position after 1 or 2 rounds they get hit and killed(sometimes the first). This is frustrating because I find its only with gunners or crew sticking out, i can move a infantry squad or a crewed weapon in the same spot and somehow the enemy misses more and they're survivability is much higher. Is anyone experiencing this/ is this supposed to happen or am i just really unlucky. Mark.

These are awesome, great work and thank you!

I wasnt able to find a 'SMG' squad but there is the squads that consist of nothing but STG's. The month has to be September and the German (heer) formation is called "Panzergrenadier Battalion (Panzer Brigade).

As Mord said earlier one of the big differences is lethality of everything. I find that my soldiers are alot more likely to get killed by shrapnel from an explosion (near and far) or a single shot from a small arm. I find at the end of one of my games in BS or SF i have a lot more lightly wounded soldiers where in all the WW2 titles usually they're critically wounded or dead. And tank warfare is very different with slower turret turn times and a much worse spotting ability which really adds to the realism and excitement in a match. I do think its worth it if you do have the slightest interest in the Second World War, some of the battles get very intense and bloody.

Yes sir, lost a little more than i would've liked to but that's war. I agree, in the picture of the pz4 and the burning panther the house looks almost out of place.

These look great! awesome work.

Never a Dull Moment in the Courland Pocket.

From what I have read no, the only real "new" things they are adding is on map mortars i believe, could be wrong tho.

Yeah for real! I know it would be a hard and a whole bunch of work and I know there is "other games" for that. But in a combat mission game working with a friend doing combined operations would be a lot of fun. Having to re map out an entire strategy because your ally made a poor choice or having one player surrounded and having the other player attempt to break the siege, etc.

Hey guys, I know ive seen a couple posts similar to this one for other games like Italy or shock force where someone uploads every user/developer scenario and campaign. Does anyone know about or have one for red thunder? Thanks, Mark.

Does anyone have a link that works for the downloads? I downloaded it on my old computer but now all links are removed. Thanks,

Yes please! with Q1 coming to end I am ready for more.

So after a little bit of testing i have found a way to stop the crashing, its not really a fix but a bypass i guess? Well when the game is loading whether it be because you're loading real time action or saving etc. When this happens if you try to press any key or click on the screen it will cause the game to "stop responding" which explains why it only happens to me in turn based and never real time. So all you really have to do is to be patient and let the game load. I assume most of people know about this and had more patients and brains then me, but i hope it works for anyone else who has a similar problem.

I'm not sure if anyone found a fix but i am having the same issue. I recently bought a new computer and now every 20-30 minutes of playing then on one of the command phase it just stops responding and will not start responding again unless i close the game. This happens while i play CMFI CMFB and CMFB. Dont know what causes it because it doesn't matter about the size of the battle or anything like that. If anyone has more help on this that would be awesome, i dont think its my computer either because its much better than my previous one which ran CM just fine with out crashes.

Any more news on the module? i'm dying over here.

I did tests as well and had the same results.
