JessRobinson Posted December 21, 2000 Share Posted December 21, 2000 I've been mostly a lurker at this forum for the month I've had CM. I've enjoyed reading the insights of players more experienced than myself and it's helped my game quite a bit. This forum is wonderful and very entertaining - you all can be passionate about historical details one minute and then simply hilarious the next ........although I still don't quite get the Bloody Peng thread...... Anyhow, now that I have a fat 11 days off from work staring me in the face, it's time to dig in in front of my computer and play CM until my fingers bleed. I'd like to hear from you more experienced players which scenarios are your favorites. Of the 10 or so scenarios I've played so far, my personal favorite is Move It or Lose It (played as Allies). I love the non-stop action immediately from Turn 1 and the tough fight to take both bridges. What are your personal favorites? I'm interested in hearing about scenarios from the CM disk as well as user-created scenarios (a link to where they are posted would be great). Thanks in advance for your input...

420 Posted December 21, 2000 Share Posted December 21, 2000 Have you tried Move-It-or-Lose it as the Germans? Try Higher Ground if you're up for a sneaky commando raid with elite SS troopers. South of Sword is a great scenario if you like tank battles. Also try any of Wild Bill's creations, you can't go wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Splinty Posted December 21, 2000 Share Posted December 21, 2000 I loved Wild Bill's Elsdorf scenario,nothing like heavy tanks going at it! ------------------ Nicht Schiessen!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grim Posted December 21, 2000 Share Posted December 21, 2000 Try Midnight Madness at Prum (allies first) for a winter nightmare - my favourite so far. Elsdorf was also excellent. A Walk in Paris is a must, particularly if you've been there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joseph Porta Posted December 21, 2000 Share Posted December 21, 2000 Oh yeah, Elsdorf is a great one. And 'All or nothing', too. (I played them as Germans and loved every minute)... ------------------ Greetings from the land of Vikings Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Firefly Posted December 22, 2000 Share Posted December 22, 2000 Patrick Ware did a linked series called 'No Rest for the Weary', which is very good against the AI (it's only really playable as the US). It's available at CMHQ. ------------------ His men would follow him anywhere, but only out of curiosity Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CATguy Posted December 22, 2000 Share Posted December 22, 2000 I love the mad minute but as the Germans that 155 is brutal. Hitdorf on the Rhine can be scary for the US and is fun online. Action at Komersheidt is another that is fun. ohh hell most of them have been except for chance encounter that has been played to death!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bimmer Posted December 22, 2000 Share Posted December 22, 2000 I really enjoyed Wiltz (from the CD) as the Americans, and the ASL scenario The Big Cat's Den (as the Germans) available somewhere (probably ASL4CM). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DEF BUNGIS Posted December 22, 2000 Share Posted December 22, 2000 I must say my favorite is still the very first scenario I played when I got the game in the mail. "Sherbrooke Fusiliers" Frickn' **** blowin up every where from turn one. Wild Bill holds a very, very close second place with "Vossenack - A second job". ------------------ The counter-revolution, people smilling through their tears. Who can give them back their lives, and all those wasted years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GriffinCheng+ Posted December 22, 2000 Share Posted December 22, 2000 Personally, I love tank battles, so hugh tank battles like "South to Sword", "Eldsof" are very attractive to me. I have not rated them though. Griffin. ------------------ "When you find your PBEM opportents too hard to beat, there is always the AI." "Can't get enough Tank?"

This scenario is GREAT. Frantic action from the first turn onwards and I'm already looking forward to playing this one over and pursuing some different approaches. Jess, good post, and I hope to see a lot more .02 from the "vets" as to good scenarios to play, especially the first go around. ------------------ S-l--o---w Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest MantaRay Posted December 23, 2000 Share Posted December 23, 2000 The best scenario in my opinion is Wild Bill's Night at Cheneux. Has the best atmosphere of any scenario that came with the cd. Close second may be Singling Shootout. Fun Fun Fun. Ray ------------------ When asked, "How many moves do you see ahead?", CAPABLANCA replied: "One move - the best one." New CM Site.
