I am surprised that so many people seem to have missed this but there is a new interview with Charles Moylan up on SimHQ and it has some juicy new work in progress and vehicle model pics of Combat Mission 2: Barbarossa to Berlin. Head on over for yourself and check it out....

BIG ASSED UPDATE ALERT!!!!

You wanted it, you definitely needed it and as always, I delivered. We got tons of stuff to get through so lets not dawdle.

First up is a collection of all the old TGN Depot Scenarios and Operations that were posted before our move. Over 200+ battles with descriptions which you can download RIGHT HERE.  6.65 megs of scenario madness.

Once you get your fill on those you might want to chew on the latest from Mr. Evil himself, Rune and his RUNEPAK-7 Scenario Pack which is available from HERE.

Mods, good god do I have mods for you. 

From Marco Bergman comes a complete Sherman Mod collection (8 new mods paks!) with just about every option you can think of. Have a look for yourself HERE.

Tonight's POTD gives you a little teasing glimpse of the glories within! 

Fernando Julio Carrera Buil offers up two new mod selections. The first is a nice Mono and Bi-Color PSW scout car set which is available in HERE.

The second mod is based on the MDMP StuG/StuH with some altered coloring and new side skirt options. This mod can be found waiting for you in HERE.

Juju has gone wild with fire and explosions in his latest Fire and Explosion Replacement Mod Pack which is smoldering in the Special Effects Mod page located HERE.

And since he is such a mod slut, he also has a new Generic Unidentified Marker Pack also parked in there. Check it out, its VERY NICE!

Rounding out the nights festivities is Jonas Comba as he offers up a small but effective new Winter US Helmet mod which you can fetch over HERE.

I still have many more mods to hack through in the upcoming days so stand by as there is much more to come. ENJOY and thanks for hanging in with me over the past few weeks of turmoil.

For most of this week my hometown of Cincinnati has been wracked by violent protests and riots which came about after a recent police shooting.  The areas of the most of this violence is in the heart of the city which also happens to be where many of my friends, loved ones and relatives live.  It is also the same area as the nightclub that I work at on the weekends and last night violence hit just across the street from there.  For this reason my concerns aren't exactly focused on updating this site right now.  

My apologies to all my viewers and mod authors but I can assure you that I will try and work out something with the host of mods that I have so we can get the goods to the people.  For now though,  I am just making sure all is in order here at home and I watch sullenly as my hometown rips itself apart.

Thanks for your patience...

While not quite 100% to normal,  the Battlefront.com Forums are up and functional. Email notifications functions are still broke but it seems to be a bug in the software. There is a new link to access the forums which you will need if you used to have a direct hotlink into them. It is now:

 http://www.battlefront.com/cgi-bin/bbs/ultimatebb.cgi

Please make note of the change. A regular (and big at that) CMHQ update should be completed for tomorrow.

I apologize for the delay in the update. You may have noticed that the Battlefront Forums are currently down (we were upgrading them) and that issue is keeping me from getting a proper update ready over here. Rest assured the next update will be huge and include mods from Gordon, Marco and Fernando.

I do have a small mod that was posted before all the problems reared their ugly heads. Juju has updated his German Icon mod with a new version and two icons to choose from. The new one is SWEET and can be found right HERE.

Welcome back my friends to the Webpage that never ends, come and step inside and blah blah blah. Okay lets get to the goods.

Day three of the Molek Modathon is in full swing and this time we have a nice Field Camo Mod ready. I mistakenly included a picture of this mod along with the earlier Black Camo mod so now you can see it for yourself right in HERE.

You might have noticed the impressive POTD that is up above.  Yeah, I know its been there all week but there is rhyme to this reason.  That picture also serves as a nice new Splash Screen/Menu Mod. Check it out right HERE.

Rounding out tonight is a another offering from Wolf as he has updated his Hi-Contrast Mods which now include both Grass and Snow. For those that want the maximum elevation discrimination in their game play these mods are a most and you can get them for yourself right HERE.

Coming up tomorrow (or whenever I get the next update ready) I have a another pack of the old TGN Scenario Depot files. This next pack has over 300 Operations and Scenarios and is laid out a little better format  than the first pack. Watch for it soon!
