I guess I should have put it differently. What I meant to say is people have already paid full price for many of the scenarios currently in the lineup. Perhaps the new version will be released with a comparable suite of new scenarios as the the original at release. In that case...a stand alone release makes sense.

Wow I’m excited! For sure owners would get a good discount because the description hints that we can still use the old scenarios. I guess... that owners WILL get a discount reg. TacView also. Would be a nice addition for my sims... but 62€ for the advanced edition omg...

If there was a line I could stand in to get CMO on launch day, I'd be there already.

A bit of a bummer for me since I got this game in February but given that I already blasted away more than 400 hours with it (more than I do with most other games of the same price), I feel it evens out. Of course, this does leave me wondering if there are any additions to or removals from the Database and how many of the original scenarios we'll be able to mess around with.

Just to answer some of the common questions

* All CMANO scenarios can be loaded in to CMO, so you will to play all your existing scenarios. The aim is to have CMO recognise your installed DLC for CMANO so all the content you already bought will just appear in CMO, assuming we can iron out all the technical wrinkles to make that happen!
* All base game scenarios from CMANO are being updated to add support for new features and generally improve them in CMO.
* CMO uses a new file format so while you can load up CMANO scenarios on CMO, you wont be able to take CMO scenarios back to CMANO.
* There will be a significant incentive for players who want to upgrade from CMANO to CMO, so you will not be paying the full price if you already own CMANO. Details TBD.

This product may require a separate sub forum, I suspect there will be a lot of interest.

This is really great news, fantastic new features that show the Dev's have been listening to us; Line of Site, ground terrain, and many many other improvements. I'll never get to play another game again! [;)]

I've been playing since release date and its the best gameing investment I've ever made - ever - and I've been playing wargames for a long time. So we should probably let the Devs answer some of our questions before haranguing them over how much it will cost - I suspect that if their track record holds true it'll be worth it.

Bravo to the team.

Speak of the devil! Thanks Iain.

Awesome! I want to pre order NOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Got a rough ETA, like this year, 1 year, 2 years for release?

Will the standard version of TacView also work with CMO?
How long will support for current CMANO continue for?
TacView capability was mentioned in a table sometime back for CMANO, is this still happening for current CMANO users?

Looks nice though...

Yes I was wondering about the ETA, it's my birthday on the 28th of September...hint hint 😉

It's great to hear that all the DLC should work with the new game and there will be a decent discount for CMANO owner's...

Looking forward to CMs release..

Excellent. I have had CMANO since the beginning. I have no problem paying a bit for a new version. We've received from the developers years and years of updates to the game engine, new platforms, updated user interface items, for no charge over the years.

I for one am Thrilled to hear this news, and couldn't be more excited. Just go ahead and take my money now.

Thanks to the Devs for listening to the community and making this already incredible sim, even better! [&o]

For those of you that want "everything" for nothing, I'm sorry you have no appreciation for the work done by the team, new and old.

I'm extremely excited for this. I've always hoped that the integrated TacView feature would come to Command. That alone will be worth the price of admission to CMO for me. All the other new and improved features are great as well. I love CMANO and I can't wait to see how CMO improves upon it. I just hope we don't have to wait too long to get our hands on it!
