I adjusted the H2H bonus points, for both designers and testers, to 10 bonus points per SM. These changes went into effect on August 1.

Originally, it was 20 bonus points per SM.

IMO, test point bonus totals were too high and needed to be brought into line with ladder scores and rankings.

Thanks! ]]>

Kazaki, Russia, Central Front
5 August 1941

The German encirclement at Roslavl (actually consisted of three pockets) was having great difficulties. The Soviet forces in the northern part of this trap, reacted by driving Northwest towards the Moscow Highway and the Desna River Crossing. Here at Kazaki, the retreating Soviet Army found the 292.Infantry Division and it's headquarters and overwhelmed them. The 292. was over extended and engaged in heavy defensive fighting to close the encirclement that they failed. The Soviets were pouring through this widening gap -- supplies, infantry, artillery. Guderian himself and personally ordered several units to form up into a battle group at Kazaki. A tank company, self propelled guns and artillery under General Martinek, artillery commander of 7 Corps were ordered to close this gap. But the weather has delayed their arrival.

Please note that I have sent all CM H2H scenario developers a :pm: ...and I'm posting this public notice here too.

Please send me the status of your H2H submitted scenarios by August 10th.

I need to know if you are still actively testing your scenarios.

If I don't receive communications from the CM scenario developers by this date... I will consider your scenarios to have been "abandoned"... and I will delete the scenarios and all associated test reports from the CM H2H testing area.

Thanks for your cooperation in this matter.

Testing of "French Fire on U.S." is going on (CMAK).

Will release several CMBB 1941 scenarios for H2H Testing sooner than later.

For your time, thoughtfulness and dedication to the Combat Mission simulation. Your contribution to the honor and memory of the dark days in the past cannot be calculated.
The most important thing is that these scenarios are small "memorials" to the past that reminds us and others that these men, represented in the scenarios, and the war will not be forgotten.

Very interesting, with lots of little holes to concern yourself with as the attacker. Lots of goo ways to get to the flags, and I don't mean lots of cover, but you have provided the Fin side with multiple ways to each flag.
Second, I am an infantry nut so I do not mind all the infantry that I have to move around, but more importantly you have provided enough to be able to put pressure on each flag with about a company in strength. This is about the right feel for attacking where you have the ability to find the enemy, engage and move another platoon to flanking positions. With alot of the Fin attacks comming while crossing very open ground. I love it. Moving to engage the enemy through some rather heavy fire in no cover all while trying to flank him is worth it. And you get to practice it again and again.
Third, the amount of armour that the Fins have seems very good, it does not overpower the game at all, and I fi9nd myself trying to have enough ammo to make it to the end of the battle and still provide enough support for the action at hand.
Fourth, I am thinking that it might be very tough to make it to the farthest flags, but the jury is still out on this one. I am making some good headway but I will need to have everything go well or I will run out of time. The group that I have moving to these far away flags have met not enemies yet so they have been moving constantly through trees towards the farthest flags, It will be close to see if I have enough time.
Well that is all for now, enjoying the battle, and will be updating this as the battle nears it's completion.]]> First, the map is great.
