I think it depends on the vehicle. But I never go slow. Nor do I carry men on the men when I'm in snow. With armored cars and tanks it seems I bog more going slow.

For now we just have Juju Bones 2016 Battlefront should have some tie in with Osprey with Juju as the artist. Win -Win-Win for everyone. Battlefront advertises Osprey through it's graphics, Osprey (or military miniature company) gets exposure and Juju gets more exposure as a game feature designer. Might be a bit of gelt for some people. I tell you it could be Big! A game company could make some money-through subtle advertising of military 'stuff'.

"Hey Mac which way to Ike's Command Post? You got any Lucky Strikes?" "Yeah I got some Luckies-but first you got to tell me who plays 3rd base for the Brooklyn Dodgers." Yes you can use US icons for the Captured US vehicles-but screen shot below you also have to mod the icons for drivers etc. No biggee. Just a copy and paste / renaming exercise. My icon set is a mod-soup so it's nothing I'm releasing. This is just a road map saying it can be done. Any icon set for Final Blitzkrieg has to have this mod. It's late-I'm off to bed.

One of you Icon Gurus-could you investigate if that could be done? I haven't exploded the full game files yet. Demo didn't have captured units. I suspect it just a copy and paste exercise on whatever the German Icon is for the American units. Might confuse the other player in a PBEM-but then again-that's the whole idea. Right? And if this can be done-I suspect both PBEM parties need to have the same icon mod for it to work in their face off.. As it is the icons are a dead giveaway as can be seen in the screenshot. You turn on the scenario and the German vehicles don't fire on the US oooooooohhhh evil. Look guys the cavalry BUWAHAHAHA My video card can't handle the full dealership scenario-so I split it up (Armored and Track) and imported some captured American units from the scenario using them hence I discovered the grey German stock icons.

Final Blitzkrieg Dealership
Tempestzzzz replied to CMFDR's topic in CM Final Blitzkrieg Maps and Mods
I had problems with WinRAR lately. But I also use 7-zip with no problems. Go figure. http://www.7-zip.org/ I found the following out about AGEOD games (full game downloads or patches). I couldn't unzip the file because my anti-virus was on. The anti-virus either corrupted WHILE downloading OR when I tried to extract the files downloaded. So there is my 2 cents-either use another Zip file utility-or turn off your anti-virus when downloading or extracting. FWIW. What OS are you running and AntiVirus? I'm Win7 with Microsoft Essentials AV -
Action on Lanzerath Ridge
Tempestzzzz replied to Tempestzzzz's topic in Combat Mission Final Blitzkrieg
IanL -thanks I didn't know that. National Guard unit heh. HINT from a veteran CM player (have all the module). Not a spoiler and isn't covered in training. Not obvious to first time player of CM. You can move the fortifications. Not just troops and vehicles-but fortifications They are not permanent. If you were a commander where would you dig a foxhole(s)? SPOILER way below No man in my virtual pixel command sits in a jeep reading his dirty picture magazine while eating a Hershey Bar. Every swinging d**k is out there preparing positions. Including drivers. -

Would there be snow traces around the engine compartment given that it is warm/hot?? -
My 1st battle in FB. Action on Lanzerath Ridge. Playing as the Americans. F******* Mg 42's- I really hate that sound now :^I. Passed out like lollipops to every German it seems. It was a 'near run thing' -no spoilers. Oh man I wish I had a video of the lone carbine equipped GI taking out the German HQ's unit. Pretty proud about this minor victory on IRON level. I have to say though-I am really looking forward to see how someone will improve on the uniforms on the German side. Because the stock uniforms look EXCELLENT. Solid game play against the AI.

M5A1 Stuart (Late) question
Tempestzzzz replied to AttorneyAtWar's topic in Combat Mission Final Blitzkrieg
A shield. Weird but there it is. Guess this happens when you try to put 10lbs into a 5lb sack. http://afvdb.50megs.com/usa/m5stuart.html Says an armor shield was added-why one side and not the other? Who knows. I've seen M5 pictures without the plate. M5 manual shows with and without. Odd little tank. Manual even instructs about the 30 cal being used as a dismount weapon. See pg 37 through 42 of the pdf with drawings. https://www.ibiblio.org/hyperwar/USA/ref/FM/PDFs/FM17-68.pdf -

CMRT Rokossovky's Impasse Campaign
Tempestzzzz replied to ThePhantom's topic in CM Red Thunder Maps and Mods
I downloaded it and just peeked at the briefing, maps and layout. Looks like some effort was put in to this to give it polish. Will play it this week. I'll give some feedback without giving away spoilers.
