TCMHQ Posted June 14, 2011 Share Posted June 14, 2011 Gents, I uploaded my first CMBN scenario to the Repository a few minutes ago (hope it will show up during the next few hours). This scenario was originally released as an add-on for the CMBO beta demo, at Christmas 1999. It was later also released as part of the Gold Demo. It depicted a meeting engagement late in the war between an American rifle company supported by Sherman tanks, and a German rifle company supported by assault guns. The terrain depicted a rural crossroads overlooked by a forested hill. Chance Encounter has remained a popular scenario and versions of this battle have been recreated by third parties in Combat Mission: Afrika Korps and even Combat Mission: Shock Force. (quoted from WIKIPEDIA) Because of the differences between the CMx1 and CMx2 game engines I had to make a few changes to the original OOB (no German Volksgrenadier units and no "tankriders" in CMBN for example), but I believe this won´t spoil the gameplay. I hope you like the new detailed map and some of my "artistic ideas" (sort of) Chance Encounter CMBN comes with five AI settings for both sides, so you can play it as single-player scenario , but I suggest to use it primary for H2H games. My next offer will be a remake of the CMBO classic "Valley Of Trouble". If you find flaws or bugs, feel free to drop me a PM or discuss it here. I am open for your constructive suggestions. Some comparison shots (old CMBO version versus new CMBN version): Kind regards Tom 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frankster65 Posted June 14, 2011 Share Posted June 14, 2011 Beautiful stuff sir! Really brings back memories of playing CMx1. I bet you started something here. I bet there is going to be a heck of a lot of people remaking some of those classic missions from CMx1. Thank you for starting this trend. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lets_All_Fight Posted June 14, 2011 Share Posted June 14, 2011 It's really good; way more intense than I remember it being. The map is excellent too - really benefits from all the changes to the editor. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sawomi Posted June 15, 2011 Share Posted June 15, 2011 Instant classic. I especially like all the 'easter-eggs' to find. Very, very good one. Many thanks Tom. I hope we will also see 'Riesberg' and 'Last Defence' from you, to get a full collection. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaptainFoobar Posted June 18, 2011 Share Posted June 18, 2011 Ive just played it for the 3rd time, The old magic is back, I love this map. Tom, this does justice to the original... I love the compound around the church too, helps those green german squads grasp a foothold a little bit better Well done! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
