BFCElvis Posted September 12, 2022 Share Posted September 12, 2022 I guess the title kinda says it all. https://www.battlefront.com/red-thunder/cmrt-battle-pack-1/ I also see that another thread has been created saying the same thing. Just felt there should be an official one too. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

danfrodo Posted September 13, 2022 Share Posted September 13, 2022 you are seriously giving me two campaigns and 13 standalone scenarios for Red Thunder, summer of 1944, for $10? Hell yes I am in for that! Order placed! Hopefully it will be here to coincide w the start of the rainy season. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
George MC Posted September 13, 2022 Share Posted September 13, 2022 If anyone not sure this is a link to a diary about one of the (largest) scenarios in the pack. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
danfrodo Posted September 13, 2022 Share Posted September 13, 2022 Thanks George MC, can't wait to fight it out. Fighting w german mechanized troops is one of the most fun tactical bits of WW2. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phantom Captain Posted September 13, 2022 Share Posted September 13, 2022 (edited) Super excited about this to be honest. I am in the final stages of The Breakthrough to Kovel which also focused on III Germania and the Wiking Panzers. I CAN'T WAIT to have ANOTHER campaign focused around these units!! And, I mean, it's @George MC stuff!! Edited September 13, 2022 by Phantom Captain 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aragorn2002 Posted September 13, 2022 Share Posted September 13, 2022 Excellent timing with the darkness of autumn ahead. Very curious about those master maps too. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't you just play any scenario and imagine that it's the SS-Wiking or any other SS-division you are playing? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DerKommissar Posted September 13, 2022 Share Posted September 13, 2022 Definitely a buy for me. Out of curiosity: Are there any QB maps in this one? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After all those bitter years of you waiting for the RT module, now F&R 'just' been released and more content is already almost here. Better make sure you don't get a heart attack! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

danfrodo Posted September 13, 2022 Share Posted September 13, 2022 This is gonna be great. YES I AM A FANBOY. just to save some folks the trouble of saying I'm a CM fanboy and thinking they've insulted me when they haven't. And training scenarios for proper use of german mech infantry. That's lovely. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No additional QB maps. But there are 14 master maps which could/can be used as custom maps for a PBEM, basis of other player made scenarios etc or chopped up - could also be converted via adding AI plans to QB maps. The workload to create a bunch of QB maps was bit much fir me. Cheery! Edited September 14, 2022 by George MC 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheery! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
George MC Posted September 14, 2022 Share Posted September 14, 2022 Mind I put together this twitter thread a few years back. It’s one of the campaigns and also there is a standalone. https://twitter.com/georgemcr01/status/1160289586838462464?s=46&t=zWE5Z7g0QfXjVS90ATZiOg 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

George MC Posted September 14, 2022 Share Posted September 14, 2022 The Master Map name list is linked to scenarios and campaigns so names won’t mean much in themselves I think? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ts4EVER Posted September 14, 2022 Share Posted September 14, 2022 I will certainly get this. I don't pre-order though, especially not if there is no release date. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It will be in our greedy hands in a couple of weeks. Mark my words. So postponing to spend your 10 lousy bucks sounds a bit silly. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
danfrodo Posted September 14, 2022 Share Posted September 14, 2022 I like this look at summer of 44. Overall, it's a landslide as german forces are overrun everywhere but locally germans were able to punch back hard w mobile forces. It only delayed the russians locally in general, but should be excellent well balanced fights w lots of maneuver. I'm especially interested in seeing how I can use combined mechanized arms against soviets in meeting engagements. I was thinking this morning that when I was a kid I liked three things: football, baseball, and toy soldiers. And I realized I still basically like the same three things (well, throw in guitars after age 12). But toy soldiers are the only thing I can still actually play . 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
