Anybody playing? I just downloaded the Bundle, trying to get the feel for the new system (long time Combat Mission Player) and I just can't get the views to feel right, but it's growing on me.

Would love to get a H2H game going, something small.

Looks like I'll buy the other series Fortress Italy and Gustav Line, and it appears they have an Eastern Front Red Storm game coming out, based on Bagration.
There must also be a flyable computer available for Nefarious to do FSO. So he doesn't keep talking about it for eight and a half hours on Friday night!

I've played the CM series for many years.  Don't have the time to sit down and do a H2H, but I enjoy e-mail versions.  Learn with the "elite" settings, much more realistic than the easier ones, and avoids the useless complexity of "iron."  Clearly the best tactical WWII game ever (I exclude FPS games).

Let me run a few missions and maybe we can start a PBEM.

There used to be a few guys here that were into the CM1, I actually played several games with people here in the Oclub.
