No problem, just the questions above.&nbsp; Also I asked why Mobius didn't like SPWAW just out of curiosity.&nbsp; The first part of the original post was answered but then the second part wasn't.&nbsp;

<t> I asked this at gamesquad but didn't get an answer there.&nbsp; What was the reason for making the control, firepower, cover etc...&nbsp; squad level, rather than platoon level counters?&nbsp;&nbsp; Are we meant to be moving squads on their own?&nbsp; (Like advancing one squad while the rest of ...

RE: Convince me that I should buy it instead of CBN

<t> Sorry, I see why that would be confusing. <br/>

Ok, the issue isn't "more player control is better than less". It is player control over the really important inputs, which are the ones that most control the outcome. <br/>

So, in pzc you tell a platoon which route to go and that ...

<r> <QUOTE><s>[quote]</s>IMHO the CMBN infantry model is vastly superior and so is the command system. True, there are LOS issues and it's not perfect, but I can't recall having experienced a better representation of infantry combat. The infantry move quite realistically, certainly way more ...

<t> He wanted the critical stuff contrasted so that's what I gave him.&nbsp; To be sure I think both are excellent computer games and are worth buying, but PzC:O is one thing and CMBN is another.&nbsp; I think the discussion is worth it because what is really at stake is not which to buy, or what ...

RE: Poll: Force60 or 40:40?

<t> I think the preference is muddled between two different things, one being the concept of a reaction phase itself, and the other as people just prefer shorter or longer intervals between turns. example --<br/>

RE: Stubble Hoppers - The Infantry Game

Great to hear.

I also would like to withdraw my earlier impressions about infantry in the open being too survivable to Mad Russian.&nbsp; Sample size was too small, having played a lot more, I think it's actually pretty well balanced after all.
