There doesn't need to be detailed plans, just a "Yarp, new engine on the way". Possibly they think it'd cannibalise current sales, which is fair enough.
-
Cheers user1000. I'd have expected Steve and Charles (is Phil still on board?) to be thinking about another engine while any ad-on modules were finished off. Nevertheless the fact we're talking about finishing off means it's either develop the Dutch pre-war ToE, go Fulda Gap or do it all but nicer in a new engine. No noises bubbling out? Christmas bones being prematurely dropped? Is a new engine even possible - 1 to 1 modelling of squads with no more bunching, formations, better icons, higher terrain granularity? I guess every increase in fidelity incurs
-
Hi all, given the finality of this title, is a new engine in the works? Cheers.

Tiger`s reputation may be in need of a rewrite
Other Means replied to Jorge MC's topic in Combat Mission Battle for Normandy
...wait, so the Tigers didn't deserve their reputation becasue the American's never faced them? How does the author feel about Genghis Khan? -
CM:RT demo won't run

Yes! Brilliant, thanks. Looks pretty good, too. -
CM:RT demo won't run
Other Means replied to Other Means's topic in Archived CM Red Thunder Tech Support
Ah, shame, didn't work. Thanks anyway Pete. It's the touchscreen version if that makes a difference. -
Hi support (or Phil, if you're looking). I've got a Lenovo X1 Carbon Gen 3 that I'm looking to run CM:RT on. I've tried the demo but I get the error below: My resolution is currenty 2560x1440/32-bit. Am I able to run it on this laptop? Cheers.

An interesting question is: if the Germans had stuck with the PzIV and produced masses of them, would they have had a better showing? Not having all those shiny toys would engender a different mind-set in the Generals. We all (I think all) know that the only way the Germans could've got anything out of the war would be to go on the defensive post-Stalingrad and stabilise their lines. Hold out for 2 - 3 years in a stalemate (so being able to resist the Western Allies in the ETO), shoot Hitler and maybe Yalta would never have happened. The Tiger - the tank that cost them the war.

Arguing with a guy about Rudel.

Cheers Cuirassier, that's the thread I was thinking of - thanks. -

TBH the crux of my argument is that a 37mm cannon isn't going to k-kill a T-34 from any angle. Maybe get through the engine deck but that's an M-kill. -
He's saying the JU 87G was an effective tank killer: I'm saying poppycock. Anyone got anything I can back this up with? JasonC usually has some good stats - he still around?

Artom Drabkin interviews Otto Carius
Other Means replied to John Kettler's topic in Combat Mission Red Thunder
Otto Carius has less credibility than Nixon. -
I don't think it was a flawed concept, just that most of the armour they were meant to fight had been abandoned on the Steppe. They performed admirably when called upon.

So.... Bren Carriers, what's the point?
Other Means replied to Flying Penguin's topic in Combat Mission Battle for Normandy
Yeah the smart munitions GL will be good - but the cost of them, compared to the 2inch mortar - which I reckon a trained operator could get on target nearly as well for a fraction of the cost.
