Wild Bill Wilder Posted July 20, 2000 Share Posted July 20, 2000 I'm curious. Has anyone yet played all the scenarios that came with the game? What about operations? And are you visiting the support sites to get the scenarios being offered outside the game? If so, how have you found these to be in terms of playability? ------------------ Wild Bill Lead Tester/Designer Combat Mission-Beyond Overlord billw@matrixgames.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sniperscope Posted July 20, 2000 Share Posted July 20, 2000 Hi Bill: I am been downloading them. I have played some and most have been enjoyable. To this day the Wiltz is still the one that haunts me. I refuse to read any spoilers on it. When I am good and ready I will again attmept to take the town. Love that scenario. FYI: SS Peiper and I played for 3 hours last friday night on that Cityfight scenario you sent us for testing. What a game! We are set to continue tomorrow night at 10pm. I have started writing a short report regarding the scneario. Will keep you posted. sniperscope Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wild Bill Wilder Posted July 20, 2000 Author Share Posted July 20, 2000 I was wondering Sniper! I did not want to interrupt you in the heat of battle but I'm glad to know its going well. As a general rule, I too have been impressed with the quality of "outside" scenarios. There is real talent out there. Good luck in the bloody streets of Vossenack! ------------------ Wild Bill Lead Tester/Designer Combat Mission-Beyond Overlord billw@matrixgames.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IntelWeenie Posted July 20, 2000 Share Posted July 20, 2000 I've played about 3/4 of the original battles and 1/2 of the operations (or at least parts of them). I have downloaded several user created scenarios, but have only played a few of them, so I'll reserve overall comments. The ones I've played have been pretty fun, though. The my favorites (so far) have been "Wyler" and "Maastricht - Tough Tanker". ------------------ "Belly to belly and everything's better" - Russian proverb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was making a training scenario for Battalion scale forces,and I accidently saved my playtest over the original!!!!! It took me a few days to get over that one...

howardb Posted July 21, 2000 Share Posted July 21, 2000 Personally I like the operations best but there aren't that many of them. I like the rating system on the Wilder site though. Keep making operations people they are immensely enjoyable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wild Bill Wilder Posted July 21, 2000 Author Share Posted July 21, 2000 Thanks, Intel. Did you play the full scenario or the Tanks only..Maastricht? Task Force Rose should be a very good operation, Mch.. Nijmegen has always been one of mine. I love the different approach to the battle. It was a mean puppy to design. Thanks Pathfinder! ------------------ Wild Bill Lead Tester/Designer Combat Mission-Beyond Overlord billw@matrixgames.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wild Bill Wilder Posted July 21, 2000 Author Share Posted July 21, 2000 I have two new operations that should be ready within a week or two, Howard. I'll notify you as to where to find them...WB ------------------ Wild Bill Lead Tester/Designer Combat Mission-Beyond Overlord billw@matrixgames.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
:USERNAME: Posted July 21, 2000 Share Posted July 21, 2000 Ive quit playing till the patch. Playing as the germans in the Villars campaaign the first time was intense. Wasnt sure how the campaigns worked or what my objective was but it was a blast. Lewis Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobVarak Posted July 21, 2000 Share Posted July 21, 2000 I've played about 15% of the scenarios from the game. I like to try to save those for PBEM. Generally when I play solo I play quick battles. As for the user-created scenarios, I download them as fast as they're put up I've played many, many of them and with the exception of a few clunkers I've found them to be entertaining. ------------------ Rob Varak Editor Site on Sound: The Web's Premier Site For Musical Discussion www.siteonsound.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeff Pattison Posted July 21, 2000 Share Posted July 21, 2000 Played Drive to Mortain and a Day in the Calvary operations. Most of the time, I have been play testing an operation that I have been designing based on the fight between 2nd Battalion 9th Infantry and Kampgruppe Muller in Front of Rocherath-Krinkelt culled from the accounts by Doubler(Closing with the Enemy), DuPey(Hitler's Last Gamble), and Quarrie(Order of Battle Series, No. 4 and 5). Also, a boat load of quick battles. Don't really want to play scenarios until I've figured out my handicap against the computer or I've had an opportunity to play against a human player.
