Jeff Heidman Posted November 9, 2002 Share Posted November 9, 2002 I am interested in finding someone to PBEM this with. Is it pretty balanced? Fun? Do front line determinations work better than they did in CMBO? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeff Heidman Posted November 12, 2002 Author Share Posted November 12, 2002 Has nobody played this yet? Or is this board just not read? Jeff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
demoss Posted November 12, 2002 Share Posted November 12, 2002 All the people who would know are still waiting for their turn calculations to finish so they can come back and answer you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Agua Posted November 13, 2002 Share Posted November 13, 2002 I've finished the second battle and haven't started the third yet, I hope to clear all the front buildings by the end of this battle, and then work on crossing the large open area before the last set of buildings prior to reaching the Volga. So far, except for the time it's taken in setup (the reason I've paused between rounds now), its been a blast. Just what you would envision as well - a real grind 'em down.

mike_in_texas Posted November 13, 2002 Share Posted November 13, 2002 Agua, I checked out this operation, and it's apparently unplayable on my system with the amount of time it takes for the AI to move and process the turn. Do things speed up as the battle progresses, or do you have a supercomputer? Thanks, Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Agua Posted November 13, 2002 Share Posted November 13, 2002 Mike, Well, the speed of the turn calculations is based on the determinations of all the various LOS, hits and damage, so it varies from turn to turn. Yeah, I've got a pretty fast machine, but it still takes between 10-18 minutes to calculate a turn. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeff Heidman Posted November 13, 2002 Author Share Posted November 13, 2002 Well, this is the "Red Barricades" of CM, so it should be big and brutal. Who wants to PBEM it? Jeff Heidman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Potvin Posted November 14, 2002 Share Posted November 14, 2002 Jeff, Would love to play that scenario one day, but...unfortunately, this is my "no CM:BB" time of the month. I need to keep away from this most addictive game or else it will swallow my life completely. I'll look you up when I have the time. -Potvin (a.k.a.
