I've had some technical issues running it on steam during the pre-release beta period.
I'll try again, but some of the larger scenarios were getting bogged down.

Luckily my brain and skill level can't handle playing the large ones, I try to stick with tiny and small:)
This is good news, and I am very happy to see it.
I pretty much stayed away from CMx2 after some nasty issues I had with CMFI copy protection and updates (I was the horror story poster child).
I am assuming Steam makes Battlefront's previous copy protection scheme go away.
So I will be happy to open up my wallet again.
I have the game on my hard drive right now. I can get this game registered through Matrix and Steam even though I bought it last year from Battlefront? Thanks and if any threads on how to do it greatly appreciated.
Thanks guys

If you go to the link in my first post, there is a link there that takes you to redeeming your Battlefront keys for free.

Thanks for the advice here. I'll say that Battlefront got me sorted too. And quickly. Very impressed.
Got me Steam key - thanks for the heads up - very convenient
Still have not done any of the ones I own yet. Hopefully soon. :peace:
A hypothetical scenario (at the time of creation) from Combat Mission Black Sea had a real world ambush caught on drone video.
From the post: An infantry ambush on tanks in this exact(!) place was foreseen by a game developer at battlefront 8 years ago and put into a scenario.

Where are the mods for the "Russian Z forces" and territorial defense guys? I've been looking but haven't found any.

On the BFC forums and two CM discord channels there are a few guys working on mods. These new mods have probably not been posted at CMMODS IV yet. The screenshots I posted are from a scenario idea / mods I'm experimenting with. I don't know your handle (forum name) on the BFC forum. If you want, send me a PM on the BFC forum (might be able to PM on this forum also?) and I'll assist.
I'll do that! Same handle over that.
