I will report you with ideas, historical innacuracies, game balance, playability, etc. or whatever other needed information. Only ask me for them. Although i supose you will have a lot of testers in the future. Alex. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
British Tommy Posted December 14, 2003 Share Posted December 14, 2003 why not post the scenario's at the Proving grounds site? the site is dedicated to the CM games and it's where budding scenario designers post their beta scenario's to be reviewed by others. Each scenario has it's own disscusion area and the site has an active messageboard 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hans Posted December 15, 2003 Author Share Posted December 15, 2003 British Tommy, yes I should and will. Thanks for the reminder Oren-M yes I believe we have spoken before. Its the Arab Legions attack towards the Al Quds on the 20th of May 1948. Notre-Dame de France is the attack on the Hospice on the 23rd of May. Yes I do plan to do many more Blood Feud scenarios. I have severe problems getting any material however. Being in an Arab country I cannot get to any Israel website nor import books on the subject. I am trying to establish contact with the Royal Jordanian Command and Staff College. If you have any material (maps, diagrams or OOB) from the 48-56 period let me know. Lucho and Alex please email me and I'll get you started. I do have one little problem in that my copy of the finished CMAK has stilled not arrived, so references to the manual on things like dynamic flags etc are not completed. Also some names of the soldiers have not been converted (In the Thai vs French scenario for example). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lucho Posted December 15, 2003 Share Posted December 15, 2003 Can we expect Easy Eights disguised as Israelian Super Sherman with US Airborne as israelian ones against PzIVJ from the Syrians fighting for the control of the Golan hights? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hans Posted December 15, 2003 Author Share Posted December 15, 2003 Perhaps if I can get the data. In the first two the Jordanians of the Arab Legion are represented by the British (Their commanders were British and so was the equipment). The Israelis are Italians with Hebrew names. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hans Posted January 22, 2004 Author Share Posted January 22, 2004 Gentlemen my apologies The real world interfered with the reality of CMAK. Fortunately I'm now retired (well untill I go out and find another pesky job) with lots of time and I'd like to get back to these scenarios. If you are still interested please reply to this message or send an email to Wayne100@emirates.net.ae - please put CMAK in the subject line or my spam killer will do in your message. Thanks 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was in the middle of a playtest when the scenario vanished without a word. :mad: I'll not soon be playtesting a scenario for this author.

Hans Posted January 24, 2004 Author Share Posted January 24, 2004 Sorry about that Panther but my understanding was that scenarios should remain at PG only for a short time, I was unaware that designers shouldn't withdraw the scenarios when comments had dried up after a week. I also found it fustrating to be unable to update the scenarios, or in some cases to upload the scenario at all. Word was placed on the forum that I had withdrawn the scenarios, but the design of the message board sweeps them away to quickly. My email remained available in the briefings. Any information you have would be appreciated. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any information you have would be appreciated. The way The Proving Grounds works, and GJK can tell you far more about this than I can, is that the scenario stays at TPG for as long as it takes to get it playtested to "YOUR" satisfaction. If you think it needs more work you can leave there till we get to CMx2. Either way when you pull one let the people that are working for you know it. Those guys are giving their "FREE" time and there is nothing more valuable than that. Panther Commander 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
