Hello Everyone,
I recently cleaned out my basement and came across my good old close combat CD's and am very happy to find that there is still interest in this game. This is a great site so a big thanks to whoever takes care of this place......all the info a fellow needs about CC is at his fingertips.
I used to play on TH a few years ago playing ABTF it was great fun to play H2H even though a noobie like me got is arse kicked the first few times. I stopped playing because of router issues but I'd like to come back hoping that hamachi will cure all that. I can't find ABTF but I do have CC3 and CC4. I'm thinking more guys play CC3 so that's what I'm playing now against AI using the Real Red mod.
I have a few questions though.
Are there any router issues using Hamachi, or will I have to play around with ports and stuff?
Do you guys report to a ladder? I went over to TH and things are pretty empty there.
How does H2H work in CC3? In ABTF the guys would just use the maps that came with the game, put in a few VL's and portion out points between Allies and Germans (Germans getting less). Is that the same kind of thing that goes on with CC3, or do you guys just play the battles and Campaigns that come with the game?
Anyway that's it for now. I hope to started soon (I've got to get dust off vs. the AI first) I'm in the central time zone for North America and usually have Friday mornings to myself....(wife is working at that time...ha ha) So in my TH days I was even able to play guys in Europe just fine.
Hope to meet you guys on the battlefield someday soon!
Frank
