  1. Yes Jung, I feel I'm not alone amongst my euro compatriots when I admit to being partial to the odd fine cigar enjoyed with a rare cognac as I recline in my Louis XIV original leather backed armchair and crushed velvet smoking jacket. One must allow the occasional indulgence of a gentlemans vices.

    I'm back

    Welcome back. Sincere condolences for your loss.
  3. Thanks to Clay and the rest of the team. Looking fwd to trying out 1.1.6 when I get home from work.
  4. I think they were trying to disguise it's true use when it was being designed (by calling it a smoke launcher). Possibly because of arms limitations imposed as a result of the Treaty of Versailles.

  6. Thanks Hub. A pox on the lumpish oaf who penned thee with such ill grace!
  7. Am on holidays in Spain at the moment. Back on Saturday. P.S. Staying in a hotel with a free self service bar. Fantasto!

    Mine drop pods

    bboyle, Yep. I was well and truly roystered by mines on that map. I think it was jby doing the dropping. No complaints here. It's a legitimate and very effective tactic. It does make it nearly impossible to attack on that map (which was difficult anyway because the bots can't seem to navigate around it at all). FYI: Near the end we had 6 dropships stuck at various points all over the map. T'was a bit of a farce really. And have you noticed how you almost know which team'll win depending on the map. Some maps favour the defender. Some the attacker. I think if we had more human players it'd help. I dunno...

    Mine drop pods

    I agree that they are overpowered. I can speak as someone who's used them and had them used against me. You can actually drop multiple mine pods simultaneously straight on top of or around AFV's.
  10. adzling, Lined up beside the others your 2 new AFV's look very impressive indeed. The 6 wheeled Paladin is an improvement too. Well done. Think of the delicious irony the first time you are killed by one of your own creations. I imagine you'll feel a mix of chagrin and pride...

    Infantry

    Doesn't make much difference.

    Infantry

    Bump! Had some great infantry battles last night. That two hills map. Squads of infantry at close range in trenches that had been dug by a Cutter earlier. It was good because I could actually see something. Usually if I'm infantry in the grass I'm flailing around blind. I know some people turn off foliage for performance issues. In order that they don't have an unfair advantage I propose the following: Get an old pair of spectacles and glue some grass clippings to the outside of the lenses. Alternatively keep a potted plant handy near the computer. When controlling infantry in cover place the plant in front of the monitor. Hey Presto! The foliage effect without the performance hit!

    New Turrets

    I thought maybe you had subverted it's IFF sub-routine using some new fangled Cutter infiltration software. Now there's an idea...

    New Turrets

    I dropped a 76mm Turret behind aittam who was busy in his Cutter trying to capture an AAD tower. The turret had a close range shot at the rear of his vehicle. It didn't even look in his direction let alone fire a shot.
  15. Well with just 2 reloads... The TD probably needs a bigger gun if it's to justify it's turretless design imho. The Apollo is pretty small and it already carries the biggest gun in the game. With a turret.
