    Hahahaha. They made those gaps, driving to and fro. As I suspect you knew from your wink. Joking aside. The only thing that I can think of to explain what your Pershing did, is that the "Low Bocage" was set on an impassable terrain tile such as "Heavy Forest".

    In the Commonwealth of Nostalgia Magna we forge our own history.

    I have a very vague recollection of reading that CMFB would only have two types of hedgerow, "Hedge" and "Low Bocage", and that for movement purposes they would be treated the same, unlike in Battle for Normandy. Obviously, now that I want to find it in the manual I can't. So I just ran a quick test with a Locust and a Jeep. Both made short work of the low bocage....

    I always thought all hedges in CMFB were passable, despite looking similar to the "low bocage" from CMBN. Perhaps I shall have to re-read the manual.

    Not a great fan of alternate history such as the above. Paddy hasn't seen my mum growing up, and needs to get home sharpish.

    We have a village just a couple of miles away called "Loose". Most people pronounce it "Lose". Although there was a Ladies Morris side who called themselves "The Loose Women". Meanwhile after only managing a Minor Victory with my Jocks in the Wald, cuz I'm rubbish. I'm just embarking on "Spearhead".

    The Final Mission - This was one tough pussy. ..

    I suspect that only the designer knows the reason. Luckily there were plenty of other vehicles carrying spare ammo, mortar and PIAT rounds.

    I hadn't noticed this at the time of your post. But, having reached the final mission I have found an annoying number of light vehicles marked as "Dismounted" which can't be moved even though they have men sat in them.

    I've just downloaded this pack. On first viewing it does look like an impressive piece of work. Currently "Downfall" is taking up all of my limited gaming time, so it will be months rather than weeks before I take it on. But, many thanks to X (formerly known as Twitter) for putting it together.

    They can indeed. Although care does need to be taken when using them, as their low trajectory shells do sometimes hit trees, rather than their intended target.

    Ah, wouldn't have heard that. I only play the WW2 titles.

    That was brilliant. It's a shame that "Chewin' the fat" isn't on the BBC iPlayer. It's also a shame that BFC didn't get someone from north of the border to do the voices for 15th Inf Div.
  14. Warts 'n' all
    Yeah, come on George. Give us something like this....

    Unfortunately, there is no concrete way of knowing unless the designer has put it in the briefing.

    ... you'll know that people have been talking about creating scenarios/campaigns based on Paderborn at least as far back as 2015. So why don't you either make something yourself, or at least offer your services to one of designers via a PM

    Perhaps some people are confuddled by your list. "Veritable" is very much "in" rather than "out". As are, "Varsity", "Remagen" and "Cologne", unless my 400 year old noddle is playing tricks on me.

    For those not familiar with it, "The Road to Bastogne" is available from the few good men website.
  19. Warts 'n' all
    What scenario are you playing?
  20. Warts 'n' all
    I think that I may have automatically assumed I was getting 3in Mortars because their HQ is on the map. Anyway they're not shown on the Tactical Map amongst the reinforcements. So I doubt that they will put in an appearance. I also have to hope that my fly boys don't bomb my men. But, it has happened before.

    The US "Spearhead" campaign will be next up for me. I'm looking forward to less mud, less woodland, and poorer quality German troops.
  22. Warts 'n' all
    I'm not if anyone else is taking on "Claymores Through Kleve", but in one or two missions we are meant to have 3in/81mm mortars off-map. But, they do not show up in the arty support panel. Which is a bit annoying when you are rubbish like me, and need all the arty I can get.

    Mission 5 - Materborn Things are hotting up. As this field of burning Stinkpots proves.
  24. Warts 'n' all
    The OP either hasn't read the manual, or he's just taking the pee.
  25. Warts 'n' all
    Which battle, or campaign mission do you spot this happening in?
