You know no one ever responded to Joe's Taliban thread. Maybe this place is running on autopilot since Christmas. Usually they shut down political threads asap.

Of course if anybody can get a response it's the AgentS/Max86 team. Where's Ray Stevens when you need him.

Even if Matrix or the Development team ignore us, if we can keep it up, at least it's a minor embarassment. Like they said all game related problems need to be dealt with in the forums. So here we are and where are they?

Politely, always politely.

I wish I was half as clever as some of you guys here. All I know how to do is be persistent and complain.

There is another issue in the PBEM game I'm playing against Joe. I notice flashes, and poof, my unit is gone. I don't know if it was naval gunfire or a direct assault. I also noitced I can't move some AT units. I think your fort level has to be reduced to zero before they are allowed to move. Maybe this turn I can move those suckers if they haven't already been overrun by Atilla the Hun. Tim, Michael, any comments? I can't ask support, they won't answer "game" related questions. Thanks.

There are a few scenarios, where some units cannot move. I suspect that it is meant to be a stationary defence position However the player doesn't know this till you wish to move it. The player ought to be told by some means.

As for AT units, if you click on the unit and look at the usual menu on the left, Withdraw is not there. Instead if you right click, and look at the pop up menu, withdraw is an option.

The left menu is inaccurate for AT units.

Not including the non-core Matrix titles like "Officers" (ugh), CCME probably wins the award for the most "ignored" game with the most potential. I just don't think it has a large enough following. But give me a patch, then some kind of campaign and more definition in unit specs and I'll buy the next expansion [:)]

Reporting in as requested by Matrix Support, that all "game" issues be addressed in the forums. Withdrawal bug, occasional freezes, still not fixed.

Of course there has to be someone here to address. Thanks.

Too bad the rules can't be put into some kind of configuration file so they could be adjusted depending on the scenario and unit types.

Just call us the Lost Company of Combat Command Matrix Edition.

Fix the bugs Matrix, they are minor from where I sit, but serious enough that many people have shelved the game. I could be wrong, but how the heck would I know, there ain't anyone around to tell me it can't be fixed. Shoot, we even have people who volunteered to fix it, and they can't even get the courtesy of being told an answer one way or the other.

Thanks for complaining guys!
