From the battlefront.com forums:
It was bound to happen sooner or later. As Combat Mission:
Barbarossa to Berlin becomes more widely known it will attract a
larger and more “mainstream” player base which will undoubtedly
contain members from the following groups:
MMORPG freaks.

If you ain't spending 25 hours a day seaching for the Glass Sword of Nerdonina, then you ain't playing.
L33t FPS players.

And you thought all the "Peng" threads were filled with competition and vile conversion. They have nothing on the chat logs of your typical Counter-Stike game.
WWII Online refugees.

Sooner or later people will get sick of waiting 4 months for each new peice of equipment to be released. However, old habits die hard, so expect gaggles of new CMBB players who will start designing Missions that use nothing but KT's and JSIII's on a flat open field.
The real reason Wittmann was a Tank ace is because of his leveling up in the France and Polish Campaigns.

Along the same lines as Everquest players. Fan of Final Fantasy will soon begin flooding the BTS boards with questions like:
"How do I open Zhukov's Sphere Grid?"
or
"Why can't my 6 person party defeat the 'Evil Tiger-of-Sturm' monster?
If you fed a Zerg Vodka, would it yelling "Urah!" while rushing?

RTS junkies from Command and Conquer to Star Craft will be looking for their next big fix. Saddly they will spend most of their time driving their tanks through the woods desperatly looking for resources to harvest.
Be afraid, be very afraid...
