  1. No, I am away from PC at moment doing some travelling and using a nexus to post. I only bumped this thread to try and prove my point that it was not just one campaign afflicted by the bug. I had assumed that the BFS squad would work out root cause and then do impact assessment on all campaigns? That could of course be what they are doing? When I get back, and if nothing has been updated I will pursue further.... But as I am not playing at moment I am not too bothered, and even when I do get back plenty of other scenarios to keep me occupied....
  2. Excellent news, I hope the pack does well and you get rewarded for your efforts, this will add weight to me to buy vehicle pack. Thanks for the heads up....
  3. I have bumped my thread re campaign issues, I would hazzard a guess that whatever was underlying issue needs to be back tracked to other campaigns, missing 6pdrs in Scottish corridor were also noted in some other threads?
  4. Bumped to show it was not just one campaign nerfed by the bug... Has this campaign been fixed?
  5. Mr picky here.... I think more than one campaign, but I agree with your general sentiment. I am still travelling so until I get back I will not be able to dig out specifics re the campaigns. I am hoping they know root cause and then from that they will fix all campaigns.
  6. Thxs for the link, does explain / offers a reason why the war has stayed cool so far during summer, a decent attempt at explaining what Russia's long game is.
  7. You would be very welcome, we are not too far from Oxford and always good to talk about CM. Well I think so even if my better half thinks I am a bit boring... (OT Just working out sites to visit, I think I will start with ironworks as that seems easy walk. So many great places to see in a short time...)
  8. Thanks for the reports Doug, and yes some luck but also you made the right calls with positions of the Panthers, you recognised the threat and moved in time to counter what Bil was attempting. The M10 duel was a 50/50 die roll I guess? You are right it was all about the tanks and without that edge your infantry would have had a tough time, saw one of your HMG teams on your right got mortared to death, Bil certainly had the edge with those. BTW, I just got back from meeting Bil FtF and brought him a consolation drink as I happen to be in Richmond this weekend and he kindly agreed to meet me. We had a good chat about the game and it was really nice to thank him in person for all the previous AARs he has done for this great community of players. Thank you to both of you for the entertainment. Cheers H
  9. I would say the game is nearly done? Well played. I think it was a tough map and with the well placed Panther's Bil had a couple of chances but they did not pay off for him. The duel with the M10 and Panther if it had gone the other way would have changed the game. (Statement of the obvious). You roll the dice and sometimes lady luck does not shine on you.
  10. At least you have gotten late war... Some of us dream of early war!!! Reminds me of a Monty python routine... Think you had it bad!!!!
  11. You see that is the trouble you mention one, then the others need some love too... I missed TF Panther?
  12. To the OP how long did it take you to complete all the content that came with the game? A rough guess is all I ask.
  13. Thanks for the update and road map. I too will add my voice for the old campaigns to be fixed, if possible? I guess it depends on what broke them?
  14. Hmmm as I was typing above you posted latest turn, yes looks grim....
  15. No shame in that as the terrain was against you, not easy to flank those Panthers and I did not see how it could be done until you showed the Sherman's moving down the valley not using the road. Then I saw you had a shot at it, but that limited window has now been closed IMO, and I guess your opinion too. The only thing I might have tried is to lob some smoke rounds in front of the Panther, did you consider that?
  16. Doug has (might as i do not know, but appears that way) nailed the tubes on Bils right, but I think he is sorting out tubes on Bils left flank?
  17. Just seen this thread and posted in Bils IMO yes Allies would call off assault, but if Bil can obtain a draw I think he will have done very well! Not his best game for sure and why he kept trying to deploy the mortars when it was clear they were too exposed and IMO needed to pull back and deploy elsewhere. If he can keep Sherman's alive as a threat that should keep Panthers at bay and lay some zooks side shots if Panthers come forward to play. I would be setting some armoured arcs for the zooks to keep tight control on ammo usage.
  18. I think a draw here would be a moral victory. IRL the allies would be pulling back IMO.
  19. Hmmm not sure BFC have in house scenario makers? I could be wrong? How about all the new content being created? Is that not doing it for you? Just out of interest how many hours play did you get out of the scenarios shipped with the game?
  20. Yes it is now become a lot harder and that M10 has had lathing problems right from the start, driver must have been a newbie.... I guess the AT gun did not attract the Panthers attention? We await to see the next cunning plan....
  21. Hmmm mind reading again are we? He made a statement, it did not say it was about you.
  22. Yes I think you are right the elevation might make smoke less effective. When looking at the smoke from the hit Sherman it did not seem to help because it reversed up the slope. Hard to tell with tree foliage off. I think Bil had one shot at flanking and it looks like it is close to failure.
  23. Yes going to be very tough for Bil, I would have lobbed some smoke rounds in that area DF from the Sherman's. He has to get to the side and where they are now he will lose. He has one maybe two turns before the Panthers close that option for him. I am hoping he can pull something out of the bag.
