PlatCmdr Posted August 26, 2003 Share Posted August 26, 2003 Ok Cheery-Cheese-Chuckers, it's been awhile since I last lurked in these parts, but I thought I'd share with you a new scenario I created for you to gnash your teeth upon, "Continuation War." Nothing as twisted or enraging as a Soddball scenario, but a nice long scenario nonetheless, where the Fins put up a hardy slug-fest against a very determined Soviet aggressor in '44. Enjoy. You can find it at ScenarioDepot [ August 26, 2003, 05:45 AM: Message edited by: PlatCmdr ] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Edward Windsor Posted August 26, 2003 Share Posted August 26, 2003 Quick updates on Brood games: Dave H and I have finished Cheery Waffle version one. It's pretty bonkers and the Russians have a definite advantage, but a little fine tuning (which I gather has already been done for Take Two) should make it a worthy addition to the Soddball canon. Further feedback is available on request. I give it a :mad: :mad: :mad: I am still reliving the misery of the Eastern Front with Mikey, in a grinding battle between green/conscript forces and "light" tanks. It's hard to say exactly what is happening on the bleak steppes, but unfortunately it appears the Krauts may have the upper hand. It could be the moment to call in my KV reserves. In a race against time, Axe and I are trying to complete our AAR before the impending nuptials. Paula is praying we don't get too far into extra time, otherwise the honeymoon may have to be delayed... MG is on fire - the turns are returning at a fast and furious rate. Although it is a monstrously huge encounter in every sense, at this rate we could be finished before CMAK arrives. Speaking of which, all that dust looks rather testing - I just hope my kit is up to the job of playing it...

If she doesn't like it, tough!! Hee hee hee. "What's so funny?," the woman calls from the kitchen. "Uh, nothing dear. One of the Brood just made a funny joke." {aside} "Me!" *He looks over his shoulder again* "That's nice dear," says the women. "Have fun with your game."

Further feedback is available on request. I give it a :mad: :mad: :mad: My Right Honourable Friend Mr. Windsor has downplayed his thorough demolition (71-29) of my German position in Cheery Waffle 1. At the end of the game I controlled exactly zero VLs. His gamey rush to my home flag with a couple of T-34s ended perfectly for him. An entire platoon of fresh German infantry was hidden in buildings within a few meters of his buttoned tanks. They were heavily armed with grenade bundles and panzerfausts, but time ran out before they could use them. :mad: Oh, and there are significant changes to the units and the map in CW2.0, which I think is much improved. My other Right Honourable Friend Mr. Soddball complimented me on my whine about a "Forward Recon" scenario, which I don't believe I have played. If you are talking about my battle with Prinz Eugen, that was a QB on one of Biltong's maps. I have to give him credit, the uber-Finn spanked me pretty solidly. Soddball, I still have not received any Traveller e-mail from you. Try me here at work david.m.hutchens@census.gov MasterGoodale, I'll get the first turn to you this evening in our new bloodbath. I'm hoping Becket gave you the First Quadriplegic Guards Army. I might just be able to manage a draw against them. :mad: edited because those three-letter words can be so hard to spell [ August 26, 2003, 08:39 AM: Message edited by: Dave H ] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have absolutely NO mods right now and some of them look good so I'd like to see if I can add another level of realism to the terrain and vehicles. :mad: I also need to know the easiest way to install them. :mad: Thanks! :mad: I mean, I hate you! :mad: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Becket Posted August 26, 2003 Share Posted August 26, 2003 Busy Tuesday Stuf Axe -- I got the latest version of PBEM Helper, not sure what the version is. But the Play Movie thing rules. Once you start, you can just sit and view all the movies (neat idea, you hit a function key and it quits the current movie, and loads the next one). Goodwhale -- I suggest getting CMMOS and all of the mods from www.combatmission.com Best bang for the d/l buck are Gordon Molek's various armor sets and AndrewTF's uniform packs.

MasterGoodale Posted August 26, 2003 Share Posted August 26, 2003 What does CMMOS stand for? I want terrain mods too. Download size is not an issue on my end (is it on the server end?) :mad: And Axe and smope please give "Blood and Scones" an angry face rating of 1-8 (8 meaning the scenario was great and full of furious combat and hot lead and TNT) when you're done. I'm hoping to make one good enough for the Scenario Depot one of these times. :mad: :mad: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It backs up your default BFC bitmaps, applies the new mods (with selectable options, saving you trouble). There are several terrain mods for CMMOS on the site as well. I use Captain Wacky's high res gridded terrain. With the flow of new CMMOS mods slowing down, I've gone ahead and grabbed some new non-CMMOS stuff as well -- Tom's skies are AWESOME, as are Tanks A Lot's shacks, and the rest of AndrewTF's uniforms.

Becket Posted August 26, 2003 Share Posted August 26, 2003 Oh, IMO the mods that make the biggest difference in the game are Andrew's uniforms and Gordon's winter German & Soviet tanks. Winter games are pleasure using these mods. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MasterGoodale Posted August 26, 2003 Share Posted August 26, 2003 ok, I'll give these mods and CMMOS a whack. I better have my turn waiting for me when I get home maggot. I got a lotta fury to dish out to your ass. :mad: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
