Combatintman Posted August 6, 2021 Share Posted August 6, 2021 I suspect it is the British Army's version of Combat Mission which Steve announced as something that BFC had been working on as part of a British Ministry of Defence contract over the last couple of years. If you want it apply here: Home - British Army Jobs (mod.uk)  5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Definitely for amateurs. Unless there's a CM e-Sports scene that's gone under my radar! Please let there be a CM e-sports scene. With maybe some defence industry funding for prize money... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mirekm61 Posted August 7, 2021 Share Posted August 7, 2021 differences Expansive maps with 1m x 1m resolution allow for short and long range action across complex terrain. Now resolution is 8x8m.

holoween Posted August 7, 2021 Share Posted August 7, 2021 Basically sounds like shockforce with a 1x1 grid 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cyrano01 Posted August 7, 2021 Share Posted August 7, 2021 (edited) All sounds perfectly reasonable to be using CM Pro to model confronting HM enemies, got to be more fun than extracting data from the RARDE wargame for use as base scenarios back in the 80s was. What does concern me a touch is the rest of the Pro catalogue. Kind of hoping that nobody is making heavy use of 'Nuclear War Simulator: Professional Edition, especially not in, say, Tehran, or Pyonyang or anywhere really...

Glubokii Boy Posted August 7, 2021 Share Posted August 7, 2021 Isn't the 1 x 1 meter resolution already in the game...I seem to recall that this has been stated before...that the grids are 8 x 8 meters but the actual resolution already is 1 x 1 meter... Am i wrong here ?   0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Artkin Posted August 8, 2021 Share Posted August 8, 2021 For sure. Seems like a SF2 thats been gone over a hundred more times. I do really like how bfc didn't sell their game short on the features list. It makes the game sound as good as it really is. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Am i wrong here ?   No, you're correct. The game currently calculates in 1x1m squares, but we can only issue orders in 8x8m. The only new feature on the list seems to be the ability to change and add military equipment, which basically means it's a Combat Mission that's modable. And with a few features to import/export statistics after a battle.  0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlexUK Posted August 9, 2021 Share Posted August 9, 2021 Is it not also possible to export a full battle replay as one file? I think that was discussed (and hopefully coming to standard CM soon). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
