    Thanks for sharing this.  Very informative.  I recently picked up Flashpoint Campaigns as an alternative to CM, which is what I play 95% of the time.  Flashpoint is actually a really good companion for CMCW, it's a level up but still tactical, w hexes at 500m.  

    Now I just need time, dang it, I've got no time.

    I'm really, REALLY, thinking to get this game. Its on sale, but idk if im gona like it.

    Slight clarification:

    To which I posted:

    I should have said:

    For sure we have found and fixed a couple of things that are Steam specific issues.  However, since we're not 100% sure how the Steam version got shorted a few things, we're going through things a bit more to see if we've missed anything.  We should have something up for you guys soon.

    Thanks Steve.

    OK, time to clear up some stuff.

    We are jointly publishing Cold War with Slitherine.  Until the Slitherine launches there is no Steam version and Slitherine isn't planning on launching until June.  Registering ahead of time doesn't do anything in terms of accessing Cold War.  Having a pre-order key from us also doesn't get you advanced access to Cold War.

    So why is Cold War going to take a few more months to come out for Slitherine?  Because they asked us to put in some multiplayer support that no Combat Mission has (so far).  And it needs to be extensively tested.  Which is why an otherwise nearly complete Combat Mission game with traditional features isn't being released by Slitherine sooner.

    Does this mean you guys are going to have to wait until June to get your hands on a version of Cold War with the new multiplayer features and Steam version?  Yes.   Does this mean you will have to wait until June to play Cold War that meets normal Battlefront release standards?  No. 

    Confused?  Well, no need to be! 

    The features Slitherine has asked us to put in require lots and lots and lots and lots of testers.  Waaaaay more than we can do with our traditional method of testing.  Fortunately, we know exactly where to find people who want to help out.  A lot of people :D

    As soon as Cold War is up to our usual quality standards you will be the first to know.

    Is there any news on CM Black Sea (Steam) update on bug corrections?

    (US infantry ammo bags, muzzleflash, and other stuff)

    49th Recce - Hill 113

    in Combat Mission: Beyond Overlord

    Probably a hand full of people still play this, so anyway...

    Ok a update, i got a major victory! Tips: you have to use the mortar and the 6pounder to blow up some houses in the start, them advance with infantry, i took the town with few casualities and keep the HQ alive, them moved the mortars and 6p close to the church, with almost all myinfantry alive i moved to forest with the light tanks support, they smashed all german infantry in that wood, i started to get some casualities, them reached the flak 88, by that time the flak was surrounded with my infantry, one turn and they got rekt, so, on the other side of the road my mortars, tanks and that 6th keep shreding the germans there, and i reduced with the infantry that survived the forest fight. Omg, why they make so difficult, two mortars, and most of the breen carriers were out of ammo by the end of the 25 turn, but, it was a major victory. Man, 10 hours to pass two missions in this game. Whorthy the money already :D

    I don't know that I've ever played this scenario, but, I definitely recommend you consider upgrading to CM Beyond Normandy and the newer games. I don't think I can even run CMBO any more.

    Let me tell you a little story :D

    I always wanted to play CM series, but my currency is really bad, its really expensive to buy the game via-site, so i waited, i did played alot of other games in the meanwhile but i always keep CM in my mind. (i would guess 4 years, and i had to do other real life stuff to). So anyway, fast forward the Steam release, i bought CM2 full pack because for some reason it's really cheap to buy via-steam in my country.

    I live in Brazil, so, i would pay 600 reais for the CM2 full pack via site, but on steam i payed 150, the minimum wage here is 900 reais, for a comparison for how expensive was via-site.

    Them i though, why i would skip the old games? So i went to GOG, waited for a sale and bought all the 3 old ones to :D, now thanks for my obsession (not really) i'm want to play the old them move on to the new ones. End of the story.

    = I passed 49 recce but now i'm stuck on 5th glosters go east, i cant figure out how to use mortar with HQ spot, and it seens to never work, btw, all the missions are this hard? lol
