Thank you, the targeting works yeah. it confused me by not showing the LoS-line from the new position but from its current position. I like to be cautious and not loose too many men too, but my "revelation" was that I shouldnt restart or reload a save just because I lost something. It doesnt feel right, almost kinda cheaty. The fact that I then somehow "know" before time where enemies are hidden etc. I did get over it though, I lost 9 tanks in the last training mission, 5 to the same tank destroyer.... haha. I'm pretty sure I saw some men jumping out of it earlier, after hitting it with a mortar shell or two, so I thought it was destroyed. Could the crew have gotten back into it later? It was a real hero for the germans haha. I had to move my tank destroyer into heavy forest to get a sight-line on it. It was well hidden/in cover behind a building. I do plan to later try that mission again though, see if I can do it better.

I will pick you up on that offer! Just not for another week or so earliest, it seems the second training mission was a tougher nut than I thought. Although after a couple of tries I now seem to realise that loosing a few men or a car isnt the end of the world haha. On that note, is there a way to order my tanks to advance then a target from the new position? Give me some time to get more aquainted and Im all over that! I only have the newest game though, final blitzkrieg. I'll be in touch in a week or two, so we can run blindly into each others machineguns! Definitely, nothing really beats playing against (and/or with) other people, especially if I can also discuss how it went and what to do differently. Will take a look at those, and get and learn the cmhelper utility before I get into a game hehe. It seems really useful, do you otherwise have to manually email/send saves? ohh I tried bumrushing, twice.. Its getting better now, kinda Learning the basics has been pretty smooth so far, definitely much smoother than expected. And fun! I didnt know how much fun it was to see my scoutcar die in the same place a few times haha. Cant wait to get by the training (and manual reading alongside) into a real game or two. to everyone else, thanks for the welcomes and tips and everything. There seems to be a great community around here. ps, that banjo duel was pretty Epic, might have to watch that movie!

Hello forumgoers, Today I finally decided to get a Combat Mission game, after lurking and looking at them (itimidated, and from a distance). Ww2, and games depicting it have always fascinated me, but playing games the like of company of heroes and men of war just leaves me disappointed in my ability to multitask and manage in realtime, and at the same time, they dont feel vert rewarding. It really irks me how the machineguns cant fire beyond 50 meters... Well, anyhow.. I'm reading the manual like a little kid, looking fortald to getting my hands busy. But I have a fem questions. Is it possible to play multiplayer other than 1v1 engagements, can you play 2v AI for eksample? Or 2v2 etc.? Does the game (this, or one of the others) have a full campaign, or is it seperate battles? ( from youtube I got the impression its mostly single battles.) Lastly, are there any fellow beginners interested in playing multiplayer? (In turnbased mode). greetings from a novice commander, from the conquered land of Norway. Banjo
