Col Deadmarsh Posted November 14, 2009 Share Posted November 14, 2009 Hello all, I lost my CMBB disk years ago and because of it, I stopped playing this fine game. Recently, I found it again stashed away in some CD case and I'm itching to get back into playing some email games again. Looking around the website, I see that they never made another WWII Western or Eastern Front module. Looks like they left it up to the Theater of War people to take over. So anyways, I was wondering how CMBB stacks up against TOW which looks pretty slick on the surface. Is there anything about CMBB that the newer TOW doesn't have in terms of gameplay? How do the two stack up against each other? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
costard Posted November 14, 2009 Share Posted November 14, 2009 Hi - welcome back. TOW has a campaign style to it - surviving units carry over, get promoted, win medals, upgrade, etc. It is far more polished graphically. It still didn't hold my attention for long. IMO, CMBB is the superior game. A lot of us are watching out for CM2:WW2 (CM:Normandy or somesuch title), due out early-ish next year. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoMac Posted November 14, 2009 Share Posted November 14, 2009 Col. Dead, If interested, how about small 600-700 ( Company Reinforced ) point QBs, However, I only play AXIS. Just PM me your address, and will send over a file along with some House Rules to make CM alittle better. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However...after loading up the game, I'm now having graphic issues with images that blink on and off. Is this that Vista issue I keep hearing about? Do I need to buy the patch? Also, where the hell is everybody? Every forum seems to be empty these days, including TOW. I remember when there were 30+ posts a day in these forums just a couple of years ago. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vergeltungswaffe Posted November 14, 2009 Share Posted November 14, 2009 Everyone is in the Shock Force forum, because that's where we talk about CM:Normandy until its forum opens, in the not too distant future, apparently. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
