Liveload Posted September 1, 2019 Share Posted September 1, 2019 (edited) Just got this title and am surprised that development stopped on it. There's a huge amount here. It would be amazing with just some tech updating. You have me on board for such an endeavor, especially if we can squeeze an Iran-Iraq war title out of it, too Edited September 1, 2019 by Liveload 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The games have more than enough tools at their disposal to be interesting. The issue is just lack of imagination and poor research. If you set some Grants and Panzers to fight over a 2kmx2km map of flat desert sure that's not very exciting. If people think that's how all or even most of the fighting in North Africa happened wellllll... Avalon Hill - 'Tobruk' says HI! Loved that game.

Sgt.Squarehead Posted September 24, 2019 Share Posted September 24, 2019 (edited) Wrong thread.....Still want to see CM:A brought back into the fold though. Edited September 24, 2019 by Sgt.Squarehead 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
waffelmann Posted October 14, 2019 Share Posted October 14, 2019 I simply want to say, how cool an update of this game would be! Really, really cool! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Erwin Posted October 15, 2019 Share Posted October 15, 2019 As mentioned b4, the code for CMA seems to have differences from the other CM2 titles - note how the graphics for faces etc are different for example. It's probable that BF would have to reprogram and there may not be enuff market to justify the expense. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
waffelmann Posted October 15, 2019 Share Posted October 15, 2019 I'am afraid that you are right. But if it be mentioned from time to time, it maybe will be achored in the subconscious of BF... Inception!!! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeyD Posted October 23, 2019 Share Posted October 23, 2019 CMA was the baby of Snowball studios, now merged and renamed 1C-SoftClub (which distributes SEGA products in Russia). I wonder if anyone in the organization even remembers they put out a CM title nine years ago! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
macout Posted March 10, 2020 Share Posted March 10, 2020 (edited) To be even more correct: CMA (maps, models, scenarios, battles, unit specifications info) was made by 'Apeiron' (known for "man of prey' ('maradeur'), 'E5', '7,62' titles). In the following year+ or so after CMA release both Apeiron's lead developers died in unrelated accidents, company ceased to exist with them. Snowball was publisher\producer, Battlefront was assembling builds\quality control. Edited March 10, 2020 by macout 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
z1812 Posted November 28, 2020 Share Posted November 28, 2020 Just to say once again that this is a great wargame. Hopefully it will receive some attention from BFC. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Re any further development, the question is who may actually own the rights to CMA if the original developer is out of biz. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
macout Posted January 17, 2021 Share Posted January 17, 2021 (edited) Depends on contract details between battlefront and some unknown party, which could be developer 'Apeiron' (rip), production fund 'Snowball Connection' (rip) or publisher 1C (still kicking). The latter was also owner of both 'apeiron' and 'snowball connection'. Also for history sake, official trailer (probably was already posted somewhere here...)

Looks like it was made with CM:SF, there are no camoed BMPs in CM:A and the terrain set looks different too. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Erwin Posted January 18, 2021 Share Posted January 18, 2021 They may have made mods. I have CMA mods for camo'd BMP's. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Suchy Posted January 18, 2021 Share Posted January 18, 2021 Looking at the soldiers' figures, it seems that it is a modified CMSF after all. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Erwin Posted January 18, 2021 Share Posted January 18, 2021 That's interesting. Where do the soldiers appear? I played the whole video and only recall seeing vehicles. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nope, those are BMP-1Ps (with AT-4).....They aren't even in CM:A. It's CM:SF with a shalwar kameez on. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The clip is from this: It is not important, if this is a early iteration of CMA (with old models) or simply a clip of CMSF to lure the people, because I think we have a consens, that CMSF1 was the base of CMA, or not? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Impressive that you noticed that <1 second of soldiers running by and could identify the models... It would be interesting if Russia got a different version. Not sure if game developers do significantly different versions for different markets. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
