Combat Mission Cold War is set in the tipping-point years of a conflict that gripped the world for 45 years. Between 1979-1982, both the NATO and Soviet Warsaw Pact militaries began the shift away from industrialized warfare of the early 20th century and towards the modern digital battlefield of today. Combat Mission Cold War simulates several “what if” conflict scenarios between US and Soviet forces centered on the strategic Fulda Gap and environs in West Germany.
Combat Mission is a game developed by Battlefront.com. One of the most realistic tactical simulations ever made, Combat Mission covers a wide variety of military settings, from World War 2 (Normandy, Market Garden, Sicily, Italy and the Eastern Front) to fictional modern conflicts in Syria (Shock Force) and Ukraine (Black Sea).You can find out more about Combat Mission by visiting www.battlefront... and especially the forums.

Aww yes, he's back!
Great content as ever and worth the wait. I know you’re a busy man so thank you for finding the time to keep the fans entertained 👊🏻
It's worth noting, the T-72s advancing would absolutely be accurate. The soviets had a very strict time table one that lives are less important than the momentum of the advance. The only issue with the scenario is the soviets did not lead that attack with artillery barrages
Good to see you back
Having been to the NTC multiple times I can say that you do not want to be out in the open. Many times I have seen a single dug in tank wreck havoc on the advancing enemy who went forward because that was the plan.
I find these videos absolutely invaluable for trying to glean insights on how to play better. That being said, do you have any interest in doing longer-form, or more raw-gameplay, videos in Combat Mission: Cold War?
It's an option and something that I suspect I'll end up trying, the trick would be making hours and hours of tactical waiting, forensic analysis and ordering micro interesting.
@@usuallyhapless9481 Oh, of course. However, I don't think it's really a contest of trying to make it *interesting* so much as *educational*?
Can you demonstrate the second Soviet Tactical Training Mission (the Meeting Engagement with the MRB)?
Great vid Hapless….IDK I think that in these campaigns where you repopulate the same map I think it would be interesting to see the wrecks remain….more immersive and adds to FOW….since targets didn’t burn at NTC I can’t tell you how many times we’d roll up into a hull down and scan…and see tons of wrecks and check em all for movement AND of course the blinking yellow strobe of the MILES gear indicating they were dead! Again smoke and dust obscuration is only kinda implemented here but I can attest that at times you could barely see 100m in any of the engagement corridors at NTC…that said TTS and later had no issues with any of it BUT…at NTC MK I eyeball observation could be tough…and confusing with wrecks at range
Persistent battlefields would be fantastic- they are doable in CM, but you need to open scenarios in the editor to add wrecks in the correct locations and unless you get a 3rd party to do it for you then you're going to be able to see what you're up against, which is a bit of a spoiler usually.
Thanks for another great video! To date, I've only played the CM WW2 titles, but this series is **really** making me want to take a crack at these battles that we expected to fight when I was young.
Good vid, is it crazy to think how long we fought in steel helmets before switching to fibres. ;p
The Strategist is back
Neat and tidy, as always, UH. Thanks for putting this together
Another great video! Shame the first play through had a corrupted save. Maybe it was caused by the recent update that fixed the campaign’s 2nd decision point bug?
Anyway, I look forward to the rest of the campaign.
Sweet, I've been fixing for a dose! Needing to replay stuff must have sucked as you're currently low on time, judging from what you said last vid, damn bad luck!
Just wondering, is the insurgency campaign put on ice because of the cold war release, or will we see more of that soon?
Thanks for the great content!
Glad to see you back - I hope all is well! Also, I'm loving the series :)
Great video, Enjoyed watching it thoroughly.
Great to see you back!
Really enjoying the Cold War content, Keep up the good work Hapless!
Another great video mate!
Great video as always. Looks like the M60s are still very OP atm.
9:20 - he says he's using the release version still
To be fair he was the defender and had the high ground for spotting.
Very entertaining video!
Wondering if you have any insight to how grenades work in the Combat Mission engine. I've only had luck getting my troops to throw these on the defensive and I would love to figure out how to get the men to toss grenades during the attack such as taking a trench at the top of a hill or when storming a building. It seems like pixeltrupen need to be stationary for a period of time before they will choose to throw grenades.
I'm not sure what the exact throwing distance for grenades are but try getting your units within 20m or so of the enemy and then use the "target" command on either the enemy or the ground they're standing on and they should start chucking grenades within 30 seconds or so.
Troops will throw grenades at enemies or target orders within 4 action squares from their position. They can do this automatically (such as when you're on the defense), or if you give them a target order at a nearby location.
battledrill.blogspot.com/2017/05/battle-technique-throw-grenades-over.html
I'll have to do some more testing with the target orders. Have not had a lot of luck with them so far. It seems like one of the big requirements is that the unit is stationary for a period of time or has no other move orders. Pausing and then moving in the same turn or putting pauses in move orders does not seem to allow grenades. Makes it difficult to use against defensive positions since it requires that you are stationary more or less for an entire turn within close range of the target. Target order also sadly limits to ability to throw grenades from reverse slopes
Assault command should do it.
@@karlhungus545 I will give that a test. Unfortunately it is not always a clickable option due to how the coding works. But potentially a solution for attacking with a full team.
Cool but I want to see the real war now.
Any chance you'll be doing a video of the 'other' choice in this campaign (the 'spoiling attack')? I just got my as$ handed to me in that one!
You ever beat it?
How do you install the other combat mission games I can only find shock force 2 and Black Sea
They are all coming to Steam at some point, but you can pick them up directly from Battlefront here: www.battlefront.com/index.php?p=home
@@usuallyhapless9481 so this is we’re you can tons the world war 2 ones
Fitgirl repacks and the pirate bay.😊
You should make a discord man!
Not mine but: discord.gg/WZdKnQuEyf
It is great, but stupid AI ruins it a little. How about PvP matches?
It's great they have a turn based mode for all you disabled guys. Makes you feel like you're not completely useless. Really kind of the game designers to be so inclusive.
Let's goooooo
