greywulf58 Posted April 26, 2012 Share Posted April 26, 2012 As mentioned in an earlier post of mine, I've been playing war games for almost 40 years now. I won't repeat what I said in that post. What I like about games (simulations) like Combat Mission is that it brought back memories of my days playing PanzerBlitz or Panzer Leader, the "Beer & Pretzel" games. Unlike those games, with the computer game you don't have to worry about finding a place to set up the game, you can leave it set up for as long as you like, and you don't have to worry about loosing components of it (well, if you back up the games that is). You also don't have to read a set of rules the length of a good novel...rules like ASL (however reading the manual does help). When I started playing CMBO years ago I couldn't get over how fun it was. Sure, the graphics weren't what they are today but they were, are, and will always be one of my all time favorite games, no matter what game type. What I like about the new Combat Mission series is the module. Some may not like them as much as some others but I feel this is the route to take with a war game such as this. Just hoping it continues. Chris. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

greywulf58 Posted April 26, 2012 Author Share Posted April 26, 2012 Moon. Now you have me thinking of even more stuff to look forward to. Maybe I can be a play-tester for a future CMSF module. I did some limited play-testing years ago for Battlefront. That game was about the airdrop on Arnhem. I forget what the title of it was but it looked good.
