Close Combat: When?

[GaryChildress]

Will we ever see a totally new Close Combat?

In the meantime I'm wondering what would be the best installment of CC to create the following mod in?

This is what I'd like to do...

I'd like to take 51 existing CC maps and link them together in a large strategic map that looks like the following:



Each battlegroup would represent a single company of a larger unit such as a brigade or division. In other words the unit scale would be 1 to 1 instead of a single battlegroup representing a regiment or such as has been the case in previous installments.

Ideally I'd like the setting to be contemporary instead of WW2. So, in other words, I would probably need to use units from Close Combat Modern Tactics, but use a strategic map system from either CC:LSA, CC:TLD or CC:WaR. Is this possible? And which CC installment would be the best one to create this mod in?

Thanks for any help.

I hope not. Theres already so many mods & versions now that to add a completely different game would be useless.

Not bad. I would like to see a strategic map for CoI & Cc3. [:D]

I think CC Modern Tactics still needs that mega-update (that the others got), doesn't it?

Try any of the MMCC3 mods and you get your strat map.

Europe, Bloody Omaha, Operation Mars, Kursk...

As to the OP.

I'd like to see the games made playable.... they've been getting steadily worse with each patch.

I tried to go back to CC but find the interface and presentation so clunky. We have scroll wheels on our mice now [;)] IMHO there should be a slighyly newer engine and improved interface. Just vulcanize the wheel don't reinvent it.

I see now the spam bots are telling jokes

[junk2drive]

Made me chuckle. I wouldn't mind the spam posts as much if they all had a joke. Maybe Matrix can setup a forum just for bots? New members can only post in that forum.

I'm still hoping to some day see a new CC using the campaign mode from CC2 A Bridge Too Far.
