MrTimn Posted June 7, 2022 Share Posted June 7, 2022 (edited) My second map project in CM, with maybe a scenario to follow. I wanted to explore the failed Russian river crossing near Bilohorivka and ended up creating this map based on satellite imagery and the various images and videos of that event. Currently just quick battle maps with no AI plan, so HTH only. I'll try to update this with AI plans when I get a chance.

Artkin Posted June 8, 2022 Share Posted June 8, 2022 (edited) Lol I didnt see this, last night I posted a quick ****ter bilhorivka scenario using pontoons on the Orsha 3 map from CMRT. I will convert it to this map and post it here when done Edited June 8, 2022 by Artkin 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Artkin Posted June 8, 2022 Share Posted June 8, 2022 A Diving Team scours the riverbed for any obstructions or mines, while their platoon's ИПМ (IPM) Underwater recovery vehicle waits idle in the water. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
danfrodo Posted June 8, 2022 Share Posted June 8, 2022 wow, that really is amazing. Nicely done. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Artkin Posted June 8, 2022 Share Posted June 8, 2022 So I just converted my demonstrative scenario to this map using my Russian troops but leaving the blue troops. I deleted the bridges since the scenario involves "creating" them in the first place. The briefing is in the other thread. This scenario is perfect for showing how these brigade level engineering vehicles are used in combat.

I'm actually playing this HtH with someone else because we're interested in the premise but we're in the dark as to what reinforcements we get if any.) What the hell someone's playing one of my scenarios? Two people. Well that sure is flattering. Glad to hear! I apparently did not write down the reinforcement timings so I'll do that now. I don't remember why, but probably so I didn't spoil things for either side if played pbem considering there are no AI plans. I now realize that I never adjusted the BLU's veterancy, considering they were there on this scenario originally. All I did was replace the Russian side, adding my own flavor to this preexisting scenario. Oops. Additionally I did not really intend for this to be played PBEM in the first place, apparently. Now that I'm reviewing this, the BLU side is crazy strong compared to the Red. The better player must take red and know their chances of success are very, very low. I really intended for this to be a showcase scenario of how to employ brigade level assets. Any fighting done is a bonus. This is definitely different than most scenarios as it opens up potential for simulation of real world forces and tactics in a way. Sorry about that. It sort of disappoints me that I released this in it's state. I was probably just happy to post it. I really just wanted to show off the Brigade I created (it's in the thread posted below. You can play with it and make your own scenarios with it too). If you want a really good historical CMBS scenario to play, I highly recommend the Hostomel Airport map which was released somewhat recently. There are 2 on these forums. I recommend both, but the newer one is more up to date and is larger. I will post the BLU first, and then the RED. So ignore your opponents side as to not spoil things. BLUFOR REINFORCEMENTS: 20 minutes: 2nd platoon of 1st motorized rifle company + 2 drones 25 minutes: 4th platoon (Weapons) of 1st motorized rifle company 30 minutes: 3rd platoon of 1st motorized rifle company 30 minutes (+ or - 5 minutes): 6x 152mm guns + battalion mortars (6x 120mm Mortar) 30 minutes (+ or - 10 minutes): 3rd motorized rifle company + 6x 122mm guns 40 minutes: 1st platoon of 1st motorized rifle company + HQ 60 minutes: Battalion HQ REDFOR REINFORCEMENTS: 15 minutes: Bridging platoon 40 minutes: Advance guard (1 MBT platoon, 1 mechanized rifle company (MTLB), ATGM platoon, Mortar battery). 50 minutes: Battalion HQ + battalion signal platoon The briefing is in this thread here: I usually don't go the extra mile to add briefings to my scenarios, I just create them schizophrenically and leave them to rot on my hard drive. They're usually left 80% finished. It's really strange that you post about this now, because just last night I was recreating something like this on a CMCW map Rumpenheim Rumpus. I barely finished placing the engineering assets down. I was trying to find a nice wide river instead of something small like the Siverskyi-Donets. Sorry if there's any disappointment, I should flesh this out. I usually jump back and fourth between games when my interest is there to create stuff - mainly from the TOE's I've created. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm super glad to have gotten a response! Since adding the briefings to the scenarios honestly seems pretty trivial, shall I go ahead and copy-paste them? Or will you? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Feel free to do whatever you'd like with the scenario, at this point I've moved on entirely and I don't see myself spending the time to revisit it. If you would like I've sort of completed another, larger version of that concept. I'm not sure how it will play out just yet but I think both sides will be struggling. The only rule is not to cross the river with tanks until the bridge is fully built. I WILL be adding a briefing to this one with more of an explanation of how things work. I might add more stuff to it too, not sure yet. Feel free to preview or try it out if you want something more PBEM friendly and less of an experiment. It's a Ukrainian pincer attack on a town while the Russians rush to reinforce it by laying a bridge.

I gotta ask, though - does this come with a mission briefing? Also, could I please have the reinforcement timeline/schedules for your first MRB scenario (the one you made before the rive crossing one), so I can add it to the briefing? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No briefing yet (I will add one eventually when I officially release it) for the Rumpus scenario but yes it is for CMBS Sure but I admit that scenario kind of sucks.
