Default Re: Do you use CBM?

Even SP can be challenging (unless of course you make statements about SP vanilla compared to MP modded).

And I avoided it before but I will also add +1 to previous comments. I loved CBM under its original creator (Zen, back in Dom2 days) but less and less as time goes on. I know what they want it to be, but I just didnt see it that way. Particularly in shutting down strategies. The "game killer" things they fixed did not seem to really be the automatic-end-of-game they were touted to be except in a particular group of gamers.

And now CBM has come so incredibly far. IIRC no nation is untouched? And almost all answers, guides, wiki pages, etc have to say whether its the CBM or Vanilla version being answered for. It seems difficult for anyone to play in both so they are forced to choose either one type game or the other to become proficient in.

DISCLAIMER: only my humble opinion of course
