On one hand, the time period from late 44 to the end of the war is one of the most interesting imo, but on the other hand I feel like I've barely put time into CMFI... I'm holding off on it for now, I feel bad rewarding battlefront for doing some re-skinning and then releasing combat mission normandy again. For serious, this game is $55 USD or $72 AUD for 7-8 additional vehicles and white texturing on helmets and the ground. I was disappointed when I first launched Black Sea and saw the exact same interface and controls and I'm feeling it again now. This game hasn't evolved at all past giving the buttons a gradient it seems, some new features or improved ways to control your mens would be fantastic and would justify the cost slightly.

dtkozl posted:I've had AI do plenty of amphibious attacks, some of them even worked! Same here, I've had seaborne invasions before. Once it seriously threatened me, the other times it was more of a distraction, but took critically needed supplies and men from other, more important, theatres to keep it in check. Anyone up for some AT:G? I've never, ever played against anyone, either hotseat or PBEM, before, so if there's someone that has some patience for a newbie, I'd appreciate it!

My first game is probably gonna finish soon so I could be persuaded to join another.

Two or three, including myself, bought it from the LP so we certainly could get a fairly large sized game going.

I actually played Peoples Tactics a bit and really enjoyed it, and when I found...I think GH's thread, I was like "yes! must get!" I just had to wait for my tax refund.

Well if we got 6 people I could start another using the 6 player map I built for the previous game. It's fairly well balanced and diverse enough to be interesting.

Come back when you've also barely put any time into CMBN (plus expansions), CMBS, and CMRT and bought Final Blitzkrieg anyway.

Saros posted:There's a mod that delays the AI declaring war the better part of a year so you can actually build forces and factories. Do you happen to have a link handy? Google can't seem to find it, and it wasn't immediately obvious on the mods section on the matrix forum which one it might be.

I have three ATG games on the go right now, but the big ones move slow enough that I can probably handle more, especially when I'm not stopping to take screenshots every five seconds.

Hell yeah the Matrix ATG key I bought off a guy for $10 was successfully added to my Slitherine account so I got a Steam key out of it looks like I'm joining the ATG party as soon as I figure it out!

I would join another ATG game as I'm pretty sure we're toast in that first one. Also, if anyone wants to try a smaller 1v1 or 2v2 send me a message.

I have fond memories of playing close combat and having to repeatedly take Churchills with 6lb guns against Panthers and the occasional Tiger. Good times. The 105mm howitzer version was absolute loving murder against infantry though.

TehKeen posted:I miss the AVRE in A Bridge Too Far... CC2: ABTF was great. "Oh, a couple squads of Germans want to hole up in that building?" <engineer tank arrives> *BWHAM* <entire building collapses> Playing the other side was cool, too - I had multiple time where I managed to drop a mortar round into a British flamethrower tank (forget the designation, open-topped and IIRC hauling a trailer full of fuel) for action. Although CC3: ñìåðòü íåìåöêèé was my entry into that series, and where I discovered that it was worth concentrating all fire onto the lone flamethrower guy, especially if he was still grouped with other troops. Also, to allow enemies to enter the factory before area-firing the explosive barrels. Dammit, now I want to reinstall these and see if they still work on Win7. (Can't remember if I have any Matrix versions, or if they're all the original CDs.)

Is there a breakdown somewhere of how the mechanics behind auto-reinforcing units works in AT:G? Sometimes my units replenish in one turn, other times it seems to take ages, even with enough production and land capacity to meet the demand. Edit: Oh, apparently it takes one turn for each step in the chain of command. Kibbles n Shits fucked around with this message at 04:07 on Apr 7, 2016 |

I really wish Combat mission had a replay option. I just played Bear Claws and a Brummbar got destroyed by a garand shot bouncing into the hatch and cooking off the ammo. I was a total idiot though and I closed the match assuming I'd be able to re-watch it somehow.
