  1. I could be pulling this out from where everything I say in class comes from, but this is as I remember it. This topic was touched on several months ago (searchings a pain so I won't suggest it), and from what I remember, if air support shows up for both sides on the same turn, they do some abstracted air combat and whoever wins gets to bomb the tar out of somebody (friend/foe, it's all the same). However I don't remember who stated this. I tihnk it was someone with authority, but then again it could have been G.W.B. However, your situation would refute this unless they're one side's CAS with really bad aim.
  2. Ummm, yeah. I would like to take this chance to say two things. First, "Hi Mom". But more importantly. Steve, Charles, Kwazy or MadMatt. Isn't it about time our little arian friend here got banned? He has yet to contribute anything positive or intelligent to the forum. He serves no purpose and quite frankly I'm tired of his daddy's money and attempts to buy me. I'm not for sale...punk!

But can we be positive that the anchor in question is a tattoo. I imagine that a woman sitting on your lap with several hundred pounds of steel hanging from her read would be quite painful. More so if she was quite attractive.
  4. Can I get $5 on Maximus making eurotwerp cry? Please pass the beer. BTW, perhaps you should reclassify him as a flamethrower instead of AT. Probably a bit more accurate, but would still draw the same number of yellow lines.

If what you say is true (not really but) then sloshing fuel hitting white hot exhaust manifolds can flash over (problem with panthers). Gasoline engines , in WWII, used carbs almost exclusively. Diesel, as far as I know, must be injected. So pooling diesel is from a pressurized leak that would make a terrible pool and /or mist of fuel. Not likely. Perhaps your newsgroup guy is saying that all fuel tanks leak (you can pressure test tanks) but thats what I think. Lewis<HR></BLOCKQUOTE> Along these lines, my father's a mechanic for a shipping company and I remember him telling me that it is possible to weld a fuel tank that still has diesel in it. Doing the same for a tank with gasoline would be VERY George W'ish.
  6. Or maybe houses lose their leaves in the winter too.
  7. In a campaign against Ted I had been overrun completely in the first battle. His tanks were just roaming around cleaning up my last little pockets of resistance when either a King or Jagd (I can't remember)- Tiger lumbered past a 'zook that his infantry had missed. One shot, one dead kitty. My boys didn't fare so well against the 5 tanks that came to pay their respects.

I used to think I was a moron for not knowing the muzzle velocites of any of the weapons modeled in CMBO. Thank you Veca for making GW look bright. Seriously though. Every once in a while we get some uneducated, ignorant punk around here. But it goes a long way to remind me how lucky we are overall. Most boards are dominated by idiots. If you ever want a good laugh check out the conversation on the Gangsters2 board. It really makes me appreciate the high moral and intellectual capacity of most of the members of this board.

  10. Welcome Luke, I hope that this game (lifestyle) provides as much enjoyment and education for you as it has for the rest of us. In response to you question, it doesn't really matter which side you start as. However, the CM engine is best at playing the defense so I would recommend playing as the Allies for the scenarios that come with the demo. Once you buy the full version (and you will), it pretty much comes down to personal preference. The Germans have a more different types of units, but the allies have spiffier uniforms. Enjoy!
  11. Combat Mission get's even more props from Firing Squad. This is a nice little review about some of the computer gaming underdogs. http://firingsquad.gamers.com/games/underdogs/page3.asp I have no clue how to make link clickable with the board so maybe the link works, maybe not. But check it out. ------------------ Upon the fields of friendly strife, are sown the seeds of Victory. ---Douglas McArthur

  13. I've followed most of the stuff that's been going on and just can't help but add/detract a little from this. As a student, which I assume most of us have been at one point or another imagine this. You are assigned a gigantic project that is to take an entire term. Now, this project is basically your child. It dictates your entire life. You spend every day working on it, don't take weekends up to contribute more time to it. Skip a vacation that you'd been wanting to take because that would be time away from your project. Now, 6 months later you finally finish it and present it to your Proffesor. He takes a cursory look at it, throws it in the garbage and berates you about it being a steaming pile of ****. Now, how do you respond to this? Apologize for not spending more time on it? You might. I on the other hand would probably cold-cock the insufferable prick. The gentlemen at BTS spent years fine tuning this masterpiece and I think that the least we can do is treat them with respect when we ask for enhancements. ------------------ Upon the fields of friendly strife, are sown the seeds of Victory. ---Douglas McArthur
  14. <BLOCKQUOTE>quote:</font><HR>Originally posted by Los: I thought the differnce between junior member/member had to do with penis size? Los<HR></BLOCKQUOTE> Well, you're partially correct. Most members DO have a junior member. Altough I'm not sure about the size thing. Perhaps you are thinkinf of the difference between "junior member" and "junior member +" (we won't go into the "W" modification). ------------------ Upon the fields of friendly strife, are sown the seeds of Victory. ---Douglas McArthur
  15. Oh Captain my Captain. I do believe that I found a solution to your problem. Perhaps this has already been suggested to you but I was too bust to read all the mindless dribble coming from these obvious cretins in response to your honest question. Now, I've had a similar problem and found that it is not actually a problem with Combat Mission, rather is specific to your operating system. I'm not sure how to resolve it on a Macintosh, but if you run any version of windows I can help. First you need to restart to dos. This will clear your registers so that the rest can take place. Next you need to go to your root directory (typing c: should take you there). Next what you need to do is clear your cache by running "deltree *" which should permanently rectify the problem. I hope that this is some help and you can, as I did, get rid of this frusterating timid AI problem. ------------------ Upon the fields of friendly strife, are sown the seeds of Victory. ---Douglas McArthur
