New to CM and some excellent reading ideas.


Recommended Posts

I just want to say that I discovered CM my reading the latest issue of PC Gamer. Great review and great demo. Placed an order for the game today.

Since I have only played the demo I am wondering if the Waffen SS troops are depicted in camo smocks/helmet covers?

Although this question has probably been posed before, any chances of an Eastern Front CM game? Anyone interested in reading two excellent books on the Eastern Front should pickup a copy of Paul Carrell's excellent books "Hitler moves East" and "Scorched Earth". Perhaps the best books on the subject. They are expensive but well worth it.

Look forward to receiving the game and keep up the great work. Private Dietz

Yo Pvt. Welcome to our collective. Let me be the first to point out the search hyperlink, it's right below the post reply hyperlink. I only point this out because you'll get that reply a lot (as in, that was discussed already, use the search). It's good advice, you just get tired of hearing it smile.gif.

CM2 will be East Front. The specifics are unknown considering they're (BTS) still working on CM1. Don't get caught up too much in the eye candy, even though most of it is quite good. The true brilliance lies underneath the hood. As for the how the SS troops are depicted, I don't know. I have yet to play a scenario with them.

Thanks for the book info. I'm compiling a list from this forum (yes, you guessed, there was a topic just yesterday on books) and others. I hadn't seen those mentioned though.

Welcome again
