  1. British troops need really white legs and knees or be sunburnt. Anyone else notice none of the troops ever have red hair ?:eek:
  2. Thank you for all the hard work everyone at BFC. Its fantastic what you guys are doing for our hobby. Just a question for us guys that like our battles bigger and longer than most. Will a small ammo dump ever be included in the games so we can resupply the troops and mortars ? My happy pixeltroopers love shooting everything up and ammo is an issue in scenario's longer than about an hour and a half. I know at this time certain vehicles have got ammo but Im thinking more along the lines of a battalion HQ in the rear area of the battle with maybe a tarp pulled between 2 trucks and a pile of boxes so it stands out. Market-Garden seems like the perfect time to have small ammo dumps because the German forces were so stretched very thin in alot of places. The small dump would help the thin forces with ammo so the desperate defence could keep up the fight. I've studied MG in some detail and the Germans used every method available to them to get ammo to the troops as did the Allies. We dont have horses, wagons or hand carts so a ammo dump would fit the bill in my humble opinion. Duck, roll and play dead. Stephen
  3. WOW. Real foot brakes or should that be Foot Breaks.
  4. Hello Gentlemen I will be posting the following scenario's in the near future - Santa Maria del Cedro, 17th September 1943 - British 5th Recon Regiment elements and the Royal Inniskilling Fusiliers stumble into the rear guard from the 26th Panzer Division. HTH or play as the Germans. Avanti Americani, Rapido !, Sicily - American Rangers with alittle help from some friends storm a port and coastal defences. Italians defend as best they can. HTH or play as Italians against the AI. There are about 10 more Scenario's in the works as well. Most are larger battles of close to Battalion strength on 2km x 2km maps to allow for manouver options. All require Fortress Italy and Gustav Line. The Teacher
  5. My best guess is between this Thursday and next week on Tuesday. Which week is anyones guess but it will be ready when it done.
  6. Looks like your getting some good info, have you had a look at the Battleground Market Garden series of books ?
  7. A map with a dyke and a little boy with his finger........ Ive been hard at work reading 'It never snows in September'. It never snows but it does rain down mortars.
  8. Hi Can anyone enlighten me on the rail line from Caen to Bayeux. The question I have is, was it a single line or double lines in 1944 ? Thanks in advance Stephen
  9. Im sure not all the countryside of Italy is only passable by goats. Italy has mountains, hills, plains, swamps, forests etc just like many other places.
  10. Almost sounds like my brothers first driving lesson.....almost
  11. GreenGriffin I havnt laughed so loud in two months, exceptional clip. All those poor pixeltroopers gone in a flash, not to mention the jeep and other tank. cheers
  12. The Red Gambit books are also available in paperback. I just got the first 2 books from Amazon and the 3rd book is currently on its way in the old snail mail. These books are very good and have alot of well written action to keep you hooked and reading more. Cheers The Teacher
  13. looks like the help needed has commenced. Yay more scenarios for people to play.
  14. I spent 20 minutes sorting my forces and carefully placing them for a mighty advance led by my King Tiger. As I advance a sherman (75mm) opens fire and knocks out the gun on the King Tiger, what to do ? Boot last save or continue with a heavy mobile pillbox with a machine gun ( King Tiger ) ? Last save loading
  15. Gee, everyone has got it wrong. Its a new secret V weapon, to save on engine power and to give the front of the Panther more cover a new hybrid was developed but only tested under combat conditions on rare occasions. vroom vroom
  16. Hi everyone What Im in need of is someone who has the know how to do some briefing maps, strategic and Tactical for some scenarios Ive more or less completed. The briefing text is done and most have been play tested. So any volunteers ? PM me if anyone can help cheers Stephen
  17. Its fire, after a couple of weekends on the yacht with a BBQ inspired the team and they finaly got fire to work !! or its a dead cow maybe Yes thats gotta be it, dead animals and Lobsters from space ;-)
  18. Hey Timmy If anyone asks you to look behind the wood pile, don't do it. Take my word for it On a brighter note - Take your time and ask questions if you get stumped, most if not all the gang that play this game are good on the help front. Oh and remember, If anyone asks you to look behind the wood pile, don't do it. Take my word for it :eek: cheers TT
  19. 48 here I didnt realise Battlefront was a dating site, needs more females :eek:
  20. So Steve.... This sister you mentioned...ummm...well.... Is she cute ? :confused: ( Mercy.....mercy....dont ban me !) :eek: On the other hand lets face it in this day and age $10 is nothing. I feel $10 is very cheap for the 2.0 update. I would have paid $11, well maybe $12. I have to save my money incase I need to take someone out to dinner. Cheers Stephen
  21. was the password "warcry", if I remember a post somewhere ?
  22. I thought I did, I may need to check that again. :eek:
  23. Ive been putting together a scenario involving American Rangers storming an Italian coastal battery covering a small port. After I placed the bunkers and started tests some bunkers have German ammo in them, the forces involved are Americans and Italians. Is there a way to have the bunkers only have Italian ammo ?:confused:
  24. Statues for town squares - A man on a horse A man carrying a flag or weapon A cannon - 12lbs or another type of gun Thats what Im talking about,
