New entry/gamer.

Hello to all,
I am a new comer / addicted to close combat (too much addicted I'd say).

The only major "criticism" I have toard the game, especially when the grand campaign is played, is that a relatively tiny 2 platoon formation decides the destiny of an entire sector which could have been the scene for a whole battalio, or even 3 battalions.

I understand where it comes from, a big number of platoons over a big map in real time would make the game playable with considerable difficulty.

Still, I wonder whether it would be possible tood the game in such a way to have 10 or more platoons deployed per map/sector, and whether any such mod does exist.


My second question that I hope shall find an answer here, is how to install a mod, taking into account that I bought my game through GOG, and that it seemingly can be launched thorough the GOG application only (alas, I can't even update the game to last versions, since I can't see any option for that through GOG)

Thank you for your time and help,

Adar

Some mods have an installer and when you run it it gives you the option to follow the installation path for the steam version or for gog/matrix

If you dont have installer, you must create a folder, place the mod files and create a shortcut with the /D switch method

for example C:\Matrix Games\Close Combat Last Stand Arnhem\Radzymin44 (installation path)
"C:\Matrix Games\Close Combat Last Stand Arnhem\CCE.exe" /D Radzymin44 (shortcut)


To install a mod in steam version, heres a thread and a youtube video
