Holman Posted June 7, 2003 Share Posted June 7, 2003 Given the importance of fortifications (Tobruk etc.), will there be any changes to CM's modelling of fortifications? Will there be actual building types (enterable and exitable) representing different kinds of bunkers and blockhouses? Can we place tank ditches in the editor? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tha_Field_Marshall Posted June 7, 2003 Share Posted June 7, 2003 I would like to see bunkers that have a tile(correct term?) like a house, where forces including AT guns can be placed maybe something similar to the factory, so that they can be made fairly large. And could be placed in the map editor. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

phil stanbridge Posted June 8, 2003 Share Posted June 8, 2003 I honestly don't think we'll see anything new apart from the obvious things like graphics and sound. Maybe they can tweak a few things here and there, but I'm not expecting mircales. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M1A1TC Posted June 8, 2003 Share Posted June 8, 2003 Different type of bunkers would be a welcome addition, like a mortar pit, anti-air bunker, or a tank turret. Also I would like to see armored trains. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd like to see an immobile form of the on-map mortar with more ammo, purchasable with fortification points. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shadow 1st Hussars Posted June 8, 2003 Share Posted June 8, 2003 All I want is the ablility to blow the roofs off of buildings with 25lb guns, then using 3" mortars to blow up the German Paratroops inside. An Ortona op just wouldn't be the same without it! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boo Radley Posted June 8, 2003 Share Posted June 8, 2003 Will the dust clouds given off by moving vehicles allow them to be spotted even if said vehicle is out of LOS? Like if it's speeding behind some dunes, or a ridge? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Considering they didn't promise anything beyond what you mention, you'll likely not be disappointed. Shadow - are you sure you're not talking about 6 pounder anti-tank guns? Lots of photos of them being used in Ortona; I wasn't familiar with the use of 25 pounder guns used there in the direct fire role. I would love for rooftops to be modelled seperately, too; hope they do so in the rewrite. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tooz Posted June 8, 2003 Share Posted June 8, 2003 Just give me a large enough OoB and different terrain tiles so I can play all of my CMBO favorites using CMAK quality graphics. I REALLY am NOT looking forward to orderring green Italian troops to attack a strongpoint crossing a flat, open desert. Changing all of those "sneak" orders for my Eyties will surely be a forgettable experience. What will will be able create in CMAK? There weren't too many SS troops in this theater after early '44, so will our options be limited? No King Tigers--but Ferdinands! Can we depict those rare battles where Italians fought Germans? It happened... I am looking forward to using different units and vehicles. I am excited about using Grants and Lees. Variety is everything. So, maybe charging across open desert with crap Italian TANKS might be entertaining. :confused: The most pressing question I have is: will I EVER be able to play Blitzkrieg and Pacific war CM before I die? I ain't getting any younger... It looks like we will wait two years to replay CMBO and CMBB using CMX2, so, when will we get other theaters? Please, God, let me live long enough to use B1s and Ha-Go tanks! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael Emrys Posted June 8, 2003 Share Posted June 8, 2003 Originally posted by M1A1TankCommander: Also I would like to see armored trains.I don't think there were any armored trains in the area covered by CMAK. There were a few instance of rail artillery, but as far as CM is concerned its effects will be no different than any artillery of that caliber. It was used by the Germans at Anzio as harrassing fire as the rate of fire of the single gun was too slow to be of much use in tactical situations as covered by CM.

Now there's a question... Will we be able to play CMBO scenarios in CMAK utilizing the better graphics? Now that really would rock. :cool: 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good point. I think this may require BTS to perhaps make a special "soldier wearing shorts" 3D model becasue I don't think it will look right if they stick with the up till now standard "long sleeves/pants" soldier models we have seen in CMBO and CMBB.

GriffinCheng+ Posted June 8, 2003 Author Share Posted June 8, 2003 Will there be any "cardboard" tanks included? I am not worried about "bagpipes" of the British! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
