Are there any patches I need to Install?<HR></BLOCKQUOTE>

To get into the flow of things without too many complications, I'd download the 1.05 patch. Go and Play....

After that, I'd say go to CMHQ (http://combathq.thegamers.net/) and download the mods you like best. It really does add a lot to the game.

After you play a while with those, come and get the 1.1b23 patch. And just enjoy the game in the latest stage.

The only reason I suggest you do it in increments is because:

1. You'll be playing quicker

2. You don't NEED 1.1b23 just yet (even though it does rock)

3. The mods add a lot, but take some time on slow connection to download...

4. You'll be playing quicker

The most important thing to do is to not visit the message board! GO AND PLAY!

What do we do with a terrible liar? Well, Great liars we send into the clergy.

Good liars we groom for politics. Moderate liars we supply with sherrif's badges

and guns, and the bad liars, well, we make them heroin whores. So what the hell

do we do with the Terrible Liars? Well, it seems we turn them into physicists

0. Thank (whatever your religion is) that CM arrives;

1. Install the game;

3. Download the patch 1.05;

4. Get and install the MadMatt Mod Pack;

5. Visit the 3rd Party Mod section in CMHQ, install them all you like.

6. Get all scenarioes from Wild Bill Wilder and his WB Raiders;

7. Get the CM scenarioes/operations database and see what scenarioes are available

8. Read all the tactics discussions; tutorials and papers in the forums and around the Combat Missions Web Ring;

9. If you really want to play head-to-head against another hunam player, but don't mind the glitches, get the beta patch;

10. Kiss your old life, family, work, food, water goodbye.
