Anticulturist Posted August 30, 2003 Share Posted August 30, 2003 Hi all I bought in EB, Combat Mission: Beyond Overlord Special Edition. I like to know if I got the American or European Edition. I was looking for the SS troops and I could not find them, and I read somewere, this is one of the signs this is the European one :mad: Thanks 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Panzertruppe Posted August 30, 2003 Share Posted August 30, 2003 Hi, Because of restictions in the European market(no swastikas...no SS insignia..ect) CDV had to change the names only. The units are in there...just with different names (SS is Waffengranadier). There are some mods that change the CDV version to the original names. Look for them in the "newbie help files" or do a search. Besides the names the game is the same as the Battlefront edition. Bill 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anticulturist Posted August 30, 2003 Author Share Posted August 30, 2003 Thanks for the answer. Unfortunate, it seems I got an European version in US. Anticulturist 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KG_Jag Posted August 30, 2003 Share Posted August 30, 2003 CDV is a European company. If I'm not mistaken, all versions of CMBOse are the politically correct/hitorical revisionist version. That means no SS except on the game selection screen. You can change that (and much more--e.g. add swastikas in place of German cross) with mods that are available. They were originally prepared for CDV release version of the original CMBO. Since the BMPs are the same in all versions, you can use all CMBO mods (and even some CMBB mods) in your version (whatever it is) of CMBO. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
