What would people like to see in a CM website?


Recommended Posts

I've been considering making a website, about CM of course. However, I don't really want to have nothing but maps, mods, and AARs, because it seems like there's already a bunch of sites with them out there. (No offense to people with these sites, I visit and love 'em all) What would people like to see? Give me enough good ideas, and I'll build it.

No one but the enemy will tell you what the enemy is going to do. No one but the enemy will ever teach you where you are weak. Only the enemy tells you where he is strong. And the rules of the game are what you can do to him and what you can stop him from doing to you. -Ender's Game

It would be a big task, but how about a sort of encyclopedia of units. Each unit in the game would be listed with a historical description, strenghts and weaknesses in the game, tactics specific to that unit, and a list of mods available. Have it ready by Monday and I'll give you some feedback. smile.gif

I'm currently implementing a statistics page for all units on my website (Dogs of War) tomorrow I should be finished the infantry and will move on to Support and Vehicles.

I'm trying also to gain more members as my website acts as a members club for serious PBEM (or soon to be TC/IP) players. We are attempting to host the first tournament fittingly November 11, Rememberance Day. Come by join the members club, tourny and say hello.

Also naked women washing P-51s.

Maybe naked women shooting MP44s from the hip.

Oh, and definitely naked women 'grooming' artillery horses.

Ooh, ooh, and naked women in cowboy hats firing .50 cal MGs from jeeps doing 60 mph down the Champs Elysees!

What? It's time for my shot? But...oh, okay.

damn Chupie, you're getting me excited.

Info on each vehicle/unit please!

Relative strengths, weaknesses, historical use and formation, (ie. 'm4, typically deployed three at a time, X made, etc)

or 'king tiger' only X made, deployed with Gerbilhamsters on Tricycles etc.

Sorry, no naked women. I still have parents, after all. I suppose I could start the Combat Mission Kartoffelmorser club, though. Any other ideas?

No thanks, at least not now. It's a great idea, and so far the best one.

Seriously...this what I would want to see in a new CM website:

1. Scenarios

2. Mods

3. Tactics and Tips

All of my CM needs are currently met by Mad Matt and TGN.

I understand that you want to break away from the norm that is the CM Webring at the moment. You might want to go with a more historical bent or find a niche and stick with it. Just my two cents.

Did someone compare this to the Peng thread? I've apologized for less.

Well, I dunno about you lot, but after first getting into this game, I wanted to see lots of pics about the real thing and read real stories - I went and bought books about it!

So.. lots of WW2 shots of tanks from the real campaign, maybe next to similar in-game shots. Definitely a pic of the day where anything goes,

Oh and penetration. Lots of penetration, hot lead shooting..exploding..oh!

well I had to join in!
