  • Cheers to Slitherine for giving me a free copy of Combat Mission Shock Force 2 along with the DLC!
    Honestly forgot I owned that book, it's good fun to read again. Now that I know the game better, Combat Mission is a lot more fun to play. I wish someone would do a bit more with the game in terms of the overall scale, UI and campaign side. The actual gameplay itself is pretty great.
    By the way, pro-tip! If you want to play, play in turn-based mode. It lets you skip the minute of resolution, meaning you can actually fast forward time compared to real time mode which lacks that.

    I always wished Combat Mission had a co-op feature. Imagine doing a company scale mission with each player controlling a platoon, or a combined arms operation where one player commands the infantry and the other armour. It would make those larger scale missions more manageable and a blast

      This is possible! You you can give out your orders, save your turn and send it to your friendly player, who then ends the turn and send it to the opposite team. I already played a 2vs2 match in fortress Italy. 2 Companies of British paratroopers against Italian and German Soldiers... the poor guy, who had to play as Italy...

    God I love Combat Mission, it's such a unique game that really makes you use tactical knowledge like no other, it lets you actually use the tactics of the real world in a way that would be called "roleplay" in ARMA. It really is the ultimate in WarGaming. And as a fun side note, it has some excellent youtube creators! Usually Hapless is an example, he's currently making tutorial videos for the steam release, Josey Wales is another excellent player but with a less frequent upload schedule. I really can't recommend getting into this game enough, it will single handedly change your outlook on wargaming!

    Hey Rimmy - In Combat Mission there are still sometimes things that are simulated but not portrayed in the graphics (yet). For instance when you were worried about the flat seemingly devoid of cover terrain at the 10:35 mark - depending on the terrain type the simulation takes into account micros cover. Natural deviations in normal ground.

    I always liked the Combat Missions series. The idea was to make a strategy war simulator that played like chess, so it was alright if it took a long time because you weren't expected to be in a rush anyway. You even had the option to play it like Chess-by-Mail, with two human players able to upload their decisions to the game at their leisure so you could spread the experience out over time, instead of having to block off several hours at once. I was a bit bummed when graphics compatibility issues made it impractical to play on my new desktop years ago, but the basic premise is still sound. I would be keen to see how the series is these days.

    LOVE this game. Hadn't even heard about it before it was announced that it'd hit steam, got the demo and fell in love. Bought the full DLC package. The campaign is pretty epic as losses are carried over from mission to mission so you don't just have to win, you have to do it with minimal casulties as well or you'll be screwed over down the line.
    Worst part is that you have to unlearn pretty much everything RTS-gaming has taught you over the last 20 years though, or you will have you face smashed in on a regular basis. Video-game logic gotta go, and you have to actually go back to your basic training from the army (you know, if you've ever been in one) to figure out how to best do stuff. And that is the amazing thing, shit I was taught back in basic IRL actually WORKS in this game.

    I’m so excited for this fucking game you have no idea, I’m shitting my pants right now, it comes out September first.
    I’ve been playing CMBN for years, I’ve been playing combat mission since I was 6 years old, I’m 23 now, insane.
    You should do a video on combat mission: battle for Normandy, it has a lot of DLCs and an updated engine, it’s been their main focus for a few years!

    Slytherin deserves all the points for giving you a free copy. Clearly the superior Hogwarts house

    Oh wow, this is a blast from the past. Didn't think they were still making these games. Though graphics look much about the same :P

    I remember playing my Dad's copy of Combat Mission... Normandy, I think it was? when I was a little kid. Fricken loved that game

    I love Men of War series, but I always wished it was more in depth and with more micro. This game seems to be just what I wanted, I have to check it out. Thanks for this Rimmy

    I'd highly recommend you try the turn-based mode of this game. It makes it a lot more tactical and cinematic

    You've got to check out Graviteam tactics, it's very much like this but full campaigns with less micro but greater macro by giving combined orders to platoons. Honestly it's incredible, it's got a big skill wall to start but my god it's an amazing simulate commander game

    Wouldnt mind mind more of this, but i imagine the editing would be a hastle. If they implement a speed up time feature, thatd be ideal to watch I think.

    I'd be up to see the final blitzkrieg combat mission. I have a couple of the earlier games in the series. I loved the we go system(what they call the simultaneous turns system.)

    game seems to remind me a lot of a, say, 3d Close Combat that i used to play as a little kid on the Mac.

  • @laserprawn

    If you play turn-based it will compute each turn and replay it in chunks, but you can fast forward and rewind. The original Combat Mission games only had the turn-based mode, and honestly most CM players still use it (as you've noticed the game can really drag on in real-time mode).

    • @RimmyDownunder
      @RimmyDownunder  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Yup I figured this out later. Kinda backwards but yeah, turn based is faster than real time :P

    There's actually a mod that changes the UI color for non-confirmed enemy contacts to greyed out so you don't confuse them with the red "?" markers.
