Close Combat Series - The Thrill of Combat, The Power of Command!

pzjager's mod Stalingrad Operation Circle has been completed and is now available for download. Following 14 months of hard work, pzjager decided to release the mod on the battles start date of January 10th, 1943, 65 years ago. This battle covers the final period of the Russian assault on the city and surrounding areas. From pzjagers release info he says, "The mod begins with the astonishing attack of the Kessel on the morning of January 10th, on all the northern, western and southern fronts, on a line going from Orlovka to Malo Rossochka on the north, from Malo Rossochka to Marinovka on the west and from Marinovka to Beketovka on the south. All the historical Axis units are here present, including the two Romanians divisions and the Croatian regiment which were encircled in the Kessel after November 23rd, 1942 and shared their destiny with the rest of the German 6th Army." The mod consists of 35 new maps, the remaining nine are modified maps from Der Kessel. We also have tons of new data, sounds, BGs, stratmap and units as well as many other changes.

zCharles has also released his Warhammer mod. If you haven't heard of Warhammer visit the Wikipedia entry. zCharles' mod features entirely new units, weapons and some sounds. A new stratmap is also available. All of the maps are either from the original CC5 or from mods. Several have been modified to include items and objects from the Warhammer universe. It does his include his latest soldiers.adb update, in case you downloaded this previously. Players must be warned however, the maps used have not had their names changed. If you unzip the map pack into your main CC5 maps folder you risk overwriting critical data from other mods. You should create a new CC5 install and install this mod exclusively to it.

The Meuse Crossing mod by Tejszd is getting some more attention. Volksjager_cn & Tejszd plan on upgrading Meuse to version 3.5. The list of changes and ideas for new fixed are in this thread. AG81 has started a new mod, The Battle of Vukowar. This battle took place in the Balkans war of the 1990's. This particular city was defended by a small force or regulars and militia against massivly overwhelming odds. Most notable about this battle was how the defenders managed to destroy a large percentage of the enemy tanks and hold out for so long. AG81 has a forum now for the mod, visit it here and stay tuned with all the updates as they come in. Mafi has updated his RTB Tool to version 2.16. A full readme with all the updates is included with the download. The Battle for Ebro mod by Nomada_Firefox and team has been updated to version 2.0, download Ebro 2.0. This mod was updated quite a few months ago but due to the language barrier we've only found it now. There is a long list of updates and fixes in the readme file, in Spanish. We originally covered Ebro 1.0 in this article from July 2007. Kostas1977 and Polemarchos have embarked together to construct a new CC5 mod entitled, "Crete Maleme Sector." This battle takes place in 1940 when German Paratroopers jump into battle to take control of the small but strategically important island. Polemarchos has created a Crete Intro Video with some very inspiring and familair music for our enjoyment.

We have added the original article from the USMC Gazette to the Combat Gallery. All six pages which covered or mentioned CCM were scanned. In order here they are, cover page, page 12 - CC and Infantry Tactics, cont on page 14, page 20 mention, cont on page 22, page 91 - CCM Scenario. Combat Modern Tactics which was based on the original CCM was released back on November 14th will have its first patch released soon. The patch will address several overlooked details with referencece to which vehicles can load soldiers as well several bugs and gameplay will be address and it will be adding more units and countries to the game.

Over the years during the winter months CCS traffic traditionally increases. This year we've seen an enormous increase. December alone seen 1347 Gigabytes in traffic. This month was about to crash that record untill some measures were put in place so we did not go over our limit. We'd like to remind everyone that this site is privately sponsered by five members of community year after year no matter what. If you would like to contribute to the sites costs for whatever reason you can. On the left hand side of this artile you may click on the "Contribute" button to find out how. All contributors will have thier name added the list if they so wish.

There are a few projects for content on this site that have been on going for quite some time. These projects will hopefully be finished in the coming months and added here to CCS. They include a Battle Group Speed Guide where you can check any BG from most every CC5 mod and check its speed in relation to opposing units. We also hope to add Cross of Iron and Modern Tactics mods to our download database. A stalingrad operation Circle stratmap guide and install guide are in the works, as well as an airstrike guide. Coming sooner than these projects will be a possible fix of the CC5 mod Karelia2. It has been noted the install.txt does not work on all installations so a fix will be made to make it compatible. Lastly rouge5 has created a WW2 Weapon Icon Library. It will be added soon in either download or html form. Do you have a new or updated mod to release?
