Fair enough. I just wanted to read your reasoning.

Yes but what about area denial? You wouldn't need spotters for that. Just use your indirect fire during setup. I gotta have at 81mm mortars at the very least.

This change seems too easy. I wonder what else can we get?

It's buried in the "Gustav Line" thread. They talk about it there.

Looks as if there was a huge tectonic shift between frames 12 and 13.

Excellent read. Thanks!

Someone helping with the code does not hurt either.

Ohhh...yea...I've had that Marine moment too. I get into a big hurry to get somewhere and take a chance I know I probably shouldnt take...and then all are dead. That only happened once.

Yea...not quite that many...but yea. I feel your pain. Shermans are notorious for going "BOOM". Particularly if they don't have "W" in their name, as in "Sherman M4A3W". The "W"'s have a "wet stowage" compartment that has a mix of water and some other chemical (glycol I want to say) that keeps the ammo from making those big booms. So...the lesson is here, in the future, don't do that again. :cool:

That's brilliant.

Then whatever you do stay away from CM:Shock Force. Don't do it! Stay away!

Hi. I'm new here. Soooo...ummm....yea....when's the MG module coming out and will there be flame throwers and stuff? Oh yea!.....HI MOM!

B-E-A-youteeful! :cool: Next step...50 round drum! Then...full auto!

ABT! (About Damn Time!)

Outfrickinstanding!

Did you give the command to fire? Or did they fire on their own? They will not use their AT assets unless told to or there is something worth shooting at with their AT weapon; for example a tank.

CMBN: Lots of bocage and close in and ugly fights. Newer units. As of yet Allies consist of US, and British Commonwealth modules. CMFI: More open, hilly and rocky terrain. Older units but still fun. CMFI is a newer, prettier engine (IMHO). But it has been buggy for me. It has crashed on me several times. I have not played it recently because there is a patch coming...sometime this year...(sarcasm) There will be an update for CMBN to bring its engine up the currency with CMFI.

One of the best Battlefront movies I've seen yet! :eek: Glad there is something new that is CM related on the home page.

All together now..."WHO'S STUART MOD IS THAT?"

Well stated.

Well...hell...I made the mistake of starting to read that at the end of my lunch. Interesting.

You know you are on facebook too much when you are looking for the "like" button on here.

:eek: WOW! That's some fast shooting...and standing up too! No muzzle rise indeed. I never realized the bolt could be fired so fast. Just goes to show you that good training and can improve a weapon. Interesting input. Mostly as I suspected. I do recall how the CIA made the Mujahideen use the SMLE for the longest time during the Soviets stint in Afghanistan. Until the US upped its support. It would seem to testify to the quality of the rifle.

The US had the Garand and the M1 Carbine. The idea was proven in battle. And it was not like they are unable to make an automatic weapon. They have the Bren, Sten, Vickers and Hispano (I'm sure I'm missing one or three). Was it a lack of material? Was it just easier to use what's already in the field? Or was it a doctrine surrounding the bolt action rifle over an automatic rifle. Were the brass afraid that ammo would be wasted on an automatic rifle? That's my one big dislike about playing with the Common Wealth. There is not the apparent fire downrange like the US has.

According to the last paragraph in that wiki, "After the Tunisian campaign, many M6 Fargos had their 37 mm gun removed and reverted to a cargo truck role as the (WC-52)." Maybe there were a few in Sicily. But not enough to warrant the resources to make one for CMFI, in my humble opinion. I'm willing to bet. Although...that is AWESOME! :cool:
