Hoopenfaust2 Posted June 6, 2002 Share Posted June 6, 2002 Every one must play at least one invasion (or airborne assault) scenario tommorrow. Next June 6th we'll all be playing CMBB and there won't be any "beach invasion"scenario's in that game so...just for old time sakes, and for our troops in '44. Download clubfoot's beach mod for more immersion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael Dorosh Posted June 6, 2002 Share Posted June 6, 2002 Can't I just drown my 1/72 scale DD tanks in the bathtub and call it a day? Aside from Clubfoot's scenario, what other beach invasion scenarios are there???? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mord Posted June 6, 2002 Share Posted June 6, 2002 Michael I think Clubfoot did an updated version of his beach mod that featured a British or Canadian landing scenario. Can't remember off hand. Mord. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Michael Dorosh Posted June 6, 2002 Share Posted June 6, 2002 Actually, if you guys haven't checked out the article in National Geographic yet, there is a great two page spread of an actual contoured terrain map of one of the invasion beaches; great fodder for a scenario designer.

Hope I don't miss it. I love NGS maps. Always look for them in used book stores and suchlike. Michael Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tiborhead Posted June 6, 2002 Share Posted June 6, 2002 I plan on playing a rather large co-op battle with the missus tonight. We will each have our own company to command, and will take turns in the orders phase. I suggested a regular hot-seat match, but she doesn't like the competition. I designed the scenario a while ago, simulating the fighting a few kilos in from the beaches. The good thing is, I don't remember much about the force composition I used, so it shouldn't be too unbalanced. Anyway, it's not a matter of a good, challenging game*, it's about spending "quality time" with the GF, and a rather simple way of observing this important day together. * It should be known that I suck at CM. So even if I did know the enemy's forces, I'd still have a hard time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lcm1947 Posted June 7, 2002 Share Posted June 7, 2002 Well just got off work so I'll switch over to the game after reading some posts here and do just that. Good idea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
