CMBO/CMBB Anthology of useful posts!

11/06/03

Unfortunately, forum maintenance has resulted in the links to these old threads no longer working. Well, it was good while it lasted.

Since I had made that collection in mid 2001 after having purchased CMBO, perhaps it is time for a new anthology of wisdom which includes CMBO/CMBB/CMAK. Just a thought. smile.gif

Good hunting, all!

Being a total newbie here I think I can make a good suggestion.

I am playing the Demo now (ordered the full version, but have to wait :( ).

If some of you old timers gave some tips on how to play the two scenarios provided it would go a long way to helping me and others into this highly complex game.

Just a suggestion. I look forward to reading as much as I can in the near future.

Some simple suggestions

Lead with your infantry

Keep your armour back in a supporting role

Determine where the enemy strength and concentration is

target that concentration with arty or mortar fire
if that doesn't work...

use lots of smoke then advance quickly from cover to cover

how's that for quick and dirty?

a few more hints


How to get your armour whacked:

- A quick guide for Panzer Commanders -

1.) Always scout with armour, not infantry. Tanks with closed hatches are great for spotting AT teams and other threats. (Don't forget to close quickly within 200 m of all suspected hideouts for cover of AT teams :) )

REMEMBER
In Combat Mission if a PIAT/Bazooka/PanzerShreck/panzerfaust round (Anti tank Shaped Charge) gets a "hit" anywhere on ANY tank in the game there is close to a %90 chance that tank will be ko'd (K-kill) and if not K-Killed then immobolized with an M-Kill is very likely. These weapons at their MAX range can be deadly out to 200 meters ! (but at that range a hit is VERY unlikely :)

2.) Always go head-to-head with enemy armour, especially if you have weak armour, a puny gun or both.

3.) Avoid moving your tanks into hull-down positions, move them up a hill and wait...

4.) Always attack PAK bunkers with single tanks from the front.

5.) Open all hatches on your tanks during an arty strike so that your TC gets some fresh air.

6.) When facing heavy armour, never try to use fast tanks to get flank shots, they might overheat or run out of gas.

7.) When an airstrike is approaching, don't move your armour into some scattered trees. Let them sit in
open spaces to confuse the enemy pilots.

8.) The tank is the ideal weapon for street fighting, never forget that.

9.) When using lightly armnoured tanks, ignore enemy HMGs. Show them your flank or rear so they'll be
embarrassed.

10.) Always commit your armour within the first 5 turns. You will never need it later in the game.


P.S. Someone else made up this Top Ten ways to get your armour whacked but I don't know who to credit here, and I did edit it a little myself. Fess up, if you wrote the orignal list and I would be happy to credit you with its authorship smile.gif

I'm so happy that this anthology of tips has been created. As a green/new/newbie/fresh/dead-at-the-side-of-the-road-roasting-hotdogs-off-his-flaming-vehicle-hulk kind of player I shall devour the knowledge presented. Perhaps I shall even dedicate my first surviving vehicle in your honor.

Related to the 'how to' guide for tank destruction, I learned very quickly that my German "Chance Encounter" drivers ought to read their owners manuals before wheeling through town to face down the American invaders. "Hmmmm, it says we're 'lightly armored' and best suited for ambush. . . "

[markshot]

Well, I might as well bump this thread that I started.

But I will also offer an observation. In the pre-Internet years (actually more correctly the pre-Web years). There were occassions were one might find a decent strategy guide in hard copy for a particular game. Of course, 75% of them were just trashy regurgitations of the manual (when games used to have manuals).

In the age of the Web, it seems that anything you want to know for a popular game can be found on the Web if you take the time and effort to look for it. The quality of this information you find on this Web site far exceeds what one would typically find in a strategy guide; even one that is well written.

Okay, time to go back to lurking and see if some of the master posters put up some juicey educational tidbits!

Well, as a new guy to CM, this thread has been of great use to me. Thanks to all the people who have shared their tactical knowhow with us stupid newbies! :D

[BigFatGeneralSafeAtHQ]

Great set of info links. Most invaluable to a complete neophyte like myself.

[McEvilly]

Hot dog! This is what I really need! :D

[Sando]

Checking in to say "Well done". This is exactly what a newbie, such as myself, needs.

[bjornkri]

Uhm, what happened? I sat down with a nice cup of tea, ready for a cozy reading only to find that every link I click gives me this page:

You have requested a topic that does not exist!

» Please use your browser's back button to return.

:eek:

[markshot]

I am not sure what happened. I'll contact the admin about it.

Thanks.

[bjornkri]

So, no news? Hope all this information isn't lost forever :(

It is not looking good:

(1) I sent two emails to one of the Admins, Moon, but he have not heard back from him.

(2) Even if I knew why most of the links are broken, there would be nothing that I personally could do the fix it. If it can be fixed, then BTS would have to fix it. I suspected that they either archived some of the older threads or did some form or reorganization which either purged or invalidated older threads.

(3) A while back someone had attempted to make an offline version of the anthology. It was a very good start, but they had neglected to taken into consideration that many of the threads had multiple pages; as such they lost a lot of valuable discussion. However, here is the link which still may be of some use:

Unfortunately, forum maintenance has resulted in the links to these old threads no longer working. Well, it was good while it lasted.

Since I had made that collection in mid 2001 after having purchased CMBO, perhaps it is time for a new anthology of wisdom which includes CMBO/CMBB/CMAK. Just a thought. smile.gif

Good hunting, all!

[ 08-27-2001: Message edited by: russellmz ] Hi Russel,

Is this list still available somewhere else?

Tnx,

Bernard

[markshot]

The list is not the problem; it's the links. The posts still exist, but their URL's changed. Thus, the list which I posted here doesn't work anymore.

In any case, all that material was mainly three years old and primarily CMBO oriented. Although it was educational, there are a lot of more recent posts on various topics that take CMBB and CMAK into consideration. Spend some time browsing the forums and build a new list. As many have suggested, search for posts by "JasonC" as more often than not they will be a detailed analysis of tactics and weapons systems.

[Zarquon]

If we find the threads in the archives, we might rebuild the list. It's incredibly helpful when helping someone to play the game...

Is there a way to speed up the timer in combat mission barbaarossa to berlin

[Joachim]

You can fast forward 10 secs by pressing the fast forward icon, and ff 2 secs by pressing shift or ctrl and that icon.

But no function to get twice as fast.
