House rules are subject to discussion. I'd appreciate however a decent turn rate - let's say at least 1turn/day. Anybody?

I will take this on. There is a good template for house rules by Wynntergreen leading to good and balanced Meeting engagements. I will post a link to it later. Basically it limits tanks to 33% of force composition. So a Large Meeting Engagement me as Axis? Tell me what you think of it...

Hello Strachwitz. The above rules are perfect for me. The only small problem is there is a scarcity of good maps for large QB. Maybe you can propose a nice map, not very open, with room for manouver.. If not we will have to choose one from the GL module.

Hey Fuchs. I found a beauty of a map by Pete Wenman. But it is massive 3x2 km! Do you think your PC could handle this? If yes I would propose a huge Meeting Engagement. I got two games of this scale running so on my side it would be a pleasure as CM truly shines at this scale. Lots of room to maneuver, tank battles galore and infantry fighting for the objectives...and no worries, my turn rate is pretty decent as we should aim for a 2 hour match...

I sent you an invite for our shared dropbox folder. There you find two maps. Choose which one you like. The bigger map has not implemented VLs and setup zones yet, but I would provide them if you want to test this one.
