The CMBB intro brawl solved?

[[Wiking]]

We had a discussion a while back about which piece of music should be used in the CMBB intro. I know we could give suggestions to BFC so I'm just asking: What has become of that?

[Prinz Eugen]

I'm all for the national anthem of Russia. Have no idea what the intro will be like, but I'm hoping this makes it in !

Screw that, I want 'Run to the Hills' with Iron Maiden.

I believe they decided on "Pardon my Panzer" by Boxcar Willie.

The music for CMBB is Mussorgsky's Night On The Bare Mountain. I have a review copy, essentially the full game save for some unfinished vehicles and a chunk of the scenario editor. The new armour rules, the less-easily spotted AT guns and the flat expanse of the steppe are going to make tanks a lot less effective than they are in the close-range bocage fighting., while artillery will become more of a major player.

[Firefly]

Back in the USSR of course. Second time I've plugged that today.

[Fieldmarshall]

Bah!!

It SHOULD be Ivan Rebroffs- Cossack Patrol..or another version of same.

Or the Deutschlandlied..much catchier than the Russian Anthem...or Vorwarts Vorwarts! (catchy but I dont understand a word other than Vorwarts..)

[Mies]

Anything from the Leningrad Cowboys I would say!

I believe you meant to say "Night on Bald Mountain", yes?

...or anything by Barbara Streisand, of course.

That would be a great sound mod!!

[THumpre]

But is Georgia always on your mind, mind, mind....?

[patolino]

Saturday night's all right for fighting

[Dryfear]

In case you don't know what that song sounds like...

Many listening options to choose from.

Neil Diamond's "September Morn'", in honor of every damn day I will check my mail box in anticipation.

I think that the song chosen isn't energetic enough...oh well as long as i play the game...

[Wind Warrior]

If they go with Moussorsky "Night on Bare Mountain" is a good choice--its scary enough. Better than other Moussorsky choices, like "Hut of the Baba Yaga." :cool: Come to think of it, that might not have been bad either.

Oh, go fondle a wolf or something.

[Hakko Ichiu]

Either the sound track from Aleksander Nevsky or Liza Minelli's Greatest Hits.

[ASL Veteran]

How about these fine selections:

"The Great Gate at Kiev" Mussorgsky

"Prince Igor: Polovtsian Dances" Alexander Borodin

"Mars, the Bringer of War" Gustav Holst

"Marche slave" Tchaikovsky

[Epée]

Opening (choir) of Tchaikovsky's 1812 Overture.

Beautiful. And really sets the mood.
