Over at Otto's other site, WW2f, there is currently a Combat Mission Beyond Barbarossa Tournament going on (see my sig). I don't know how many CMBB/CMAK players we have here (I know there are a couple)... any interest in something similar here? We would do it via PBEM.
What, about the game? See: Combat Mission You can get cheap copies off eBay. It's not a FPS, however.
It's also worth checking out a local PC Game store; my local 'Game' had copies for CMBB for only 99p a while back!
I am disappointed that your 'current status' is only currently 'OK'. At what point are you expecting it to be 'Astride the world as a conquering tyrant'? :mellow: We do expect performance when combating these types from across the pond you know...
Sounds interesting but I've never been any good at tactical games. I always lose. I prefer first person shooters as it feels more like you're in the soldiers boots. Day of Defeat is still the best IMHO. Bit dated but addictive.

Ah the "chap" smilie!! Smashing use of a smilie wouldnt you say?
Guys I run The Few Good Men. A sort of military chat/wargame club. I run a heap of Combat Mission campaigns and tournaments. New members always welcome or perhaps we could build a little FGM v WW2Talk tournament? Let me know if there is any interest.
Excellent well if you can get a couple of guys together I can easily put something together for us to play.
It does actually work on Vista. Its more the DX10 graphics cards. There are workarounds for it. Windows Vista
There dosent seem to be a lot of response on this thread re the CM tournament. I have just completed a couple of CM missions and having got the knack of handling the troops, would be interested in the tournament. Presume that every player plays in a league or knock-out, with the winner of the mostest going forward on points won? Let me know, thanks
Unfortunately I don't think there are enough people on here who play regularly to do a tournament. Perhaps we could set up some PBEMs for those who want it?
