Dr. Rosenrosen Posted August 15, 2003 Share Posted August 15, 2003 My PBEM friend and I have played lots of scenarios and QBs, but for some reason never an operation. I'm curious to see how reserves and a potentially shifting map change the strategy. What's a good operation for first-timer operation players (but veteran CMBBers) and why? I guess I've always been wary of the scale of operations and don't want to put that much energy into an operation that turns out to be poorly balanced or something. Suggestions?

Becket Posted August 15, 2003 Share Posted August 15, 2003 Without a doubt, Blitzkrieg on the CD. Dergatchi Roadblock comes in a close second. Der Manstein Kommt, from the Stalingrad pack, is an awesome bowl of fun, but the more experienced player should take the Germans.

Blitzkrieg is an excelent PBEM operation to start with! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kingfish Posted August 16, 2003 Share Posted August 16, 2003 'The beginning of the end' by jwxspoon is still rated as the #1 Op at the scenario depot. Others I would recommend would be 'Dergatchi Roadblock', 'Der Manstein Kommit' and 'Failure on the Aksai'. A good one against the A.I. would be 'The bitter end'. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prinz Eugen Posted August 16, 2003 Share Posted August 16, 2003 Originally posted by Kingfish: 'The beginning of the end' by jwxspoon is still rated as the #1 Op at the scenario depot. My vote goes to this. Good fun in PBEM ! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr. Rosenrosen Posted August 16, 2003 Author Share Posted August 16, 2003 We started Blitzkrieg after such a positive response. I'll let you know how it goes, but by all means keep those suggestions coming. We're always interested in having more options once we're done with this game (or perhaps having a couple going at once). I was looking at one called Mobile Defense, which I also believe is on the CD. Anyone tried that one? Dr. Rosenrosen 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
