48 hrs in update and new scenario.

Thank you all!

What a ride the last 48 hours has been. CWB has reached my own expectations for the first 48 hours and the back end info I have from Steam suggests folk are having fun (I don't collect any of your data but I can see in general how long people play etc) Obviously I can't please everyone and like all areas in life content people tend to stay quiet and get on with things whilst the less happy want to share.

I have tried to read all the feedback and welcome the negatives as well as the positives. Even the things that may not work for CWB may have their place in future projects. Some small QOL changes have been made and more will come.

For now though thanks to all who played and indeed considered playing, I appreciate your time. Now onto the good stuff.

Beyond the Elbe

Beyond the Elbe is a re-jiggered version of yesterdays Dutch debut scenario (Which is a little tougher now as it was over easy) . This time you will find it in the PACT tab and lead the VDV in an effort to capture the bridges. Of course your opposition will not be the same as yesterday. The Dutch have friends for a start.

That's it for now, unless something catastrophic happens I plan on a day off.

Chris.
