PAEZ Posted September 22, 1999 Share Posted September 22, 1999 I was wondering if there are cross-river,with boats, or rubber boats or anything like it. Is there swimming? IF not on CM, how about CM2? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Big Time Software Posted September 22, 1999 Share Posted September 22, 1999 No swimming, but there is fording (terrain type dependent) and rubber assault boats. Steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brian Rock Posted September 23, 1999 Share Posted September 23, 1999 Last time I recall it being discussed river crossings were in the "nice to do but probably not" category. Nice to see boats made it in. Putting a river partway across a campaign map could be a great bit of fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fionn Posted September 23, 1999 Share Posted September 23, 1999 To clarify: River crossings in rubber boats and suchlike are in but MAJOR amphibious assaults into the beaches aren't. Just because I'm a grognard I made a couple of scenarios of beach invasions when i first got CM.. BTS are right not to put them in. It wasn't much fun. The US forces were hacked to pieces before they got to the beach. By the time they disembarked many were panicked and by the end of the game the survivors had all been captured. Small-scale river assaults could be fun though BUT if you want to avoid a slaughter should be planned for very carefully. ------------------ ___________ Fionn Kelly Manager of Historical Research, The Gamers Net - Gaming for Gamers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
