  1. So have they gotten around to painting grid lines over Germany yet? Since it is impossible to fight without them I don't see how they let it go for so long.

    If you want a gridded mod then find or make one but the fact that you want one does not make it a requirement for a realistic tactical simulation. I played with some of the most realistic tactical simulations in the world in the Army and none of them had grids. And sometimes even real terrain was kind of hard to read, so we had to actually go look at what we could see. Personal preference does not make something a necessity.

  2. There is a load plan for troops on the M1:

    In ten years though I never had anyone even mention training to do it. It was something you might do in an absolute emergency but not anything you ever expected to do because it was the best solution.

    I'd have thought that gridded terrain mods have been so popular in CMx1 that it should be included in CMSF as a togglable option, at least.

    Is there anyone who doesn't play CMx1 with gridded terrain?

    (Come to think of it, who was the genius who first modded that? (And why Haven't I sent him cash)).

    I don't but I usually don't use mods.

    I've noticed in the game, many Bradleys carry 9 troops. Is this possible in real life?

    If you don't mind sitting in your buddy's lap it is.

    They had to make some consessions to avoid the nightmare of splitting teams into individuals. It's a game engine thing.

  5. I think you ran into the bureaucratic bull**** machine. I don't know how many times I have run into units that impose self declared limits on awards. It gets really hard to motivate troops when they see some POS at brigade get an AAM for pulling CQ while they get a coin for saving a fellow soldier's life. (Don't laugh, it happened to one of my guys.) It just happens that the unit was over their quota for that month.

    I have also seen awards denied because they weren't submitted by a high enough rank. Even though the freaking regs say that ANYONE can recommend a soldier for an award as long as they have knowledge of the incident.

    I was always amazed at the number of people who don't get the whole concept of morale.

    By the way, what is the CAB? I don't think we had that when I was in.
