I don't really thinking playing with the 5th Cookery Company is that interesting.. "hmm waffles or bagels tonight?".
Some grand, coded, multiplayer campaign would be cool with a HUGE computer generated battlefield in full 3d and each turn (1/4 of a day) you move your armies and resolve battles on smaller sections of the map, but I really think it's just a pipe dream
till then, bring on the CMMC

I just have to say that most AP fired in this game is, if i recall correctly, not HE-tipped. There was some discussion of this early on.
I believe the practice was somewhat common in the smaller English guns.. hmm.. but in general it was found that the lesser weight of the round resulted in lesser penetration at range, and the effect of the HE bit wasn't that great..
another reason I don't think there's HE in most AP rounds is that I've seen rounds stuck in sheets of metal and they were solid.
O, just asked a grog, and yeah, i'm right, some rounds were filled with a tiny bit of HE, called 'filler'.. there's a thread on it.
Anyway, this sheet of metal had about a half-dozen rounds through it. Some were clean holes in the metal, others were stuck half way through.
The destructive power of a solid AP round comes from the bits of metal that are torn off the inside of the tank's armor and then thrown around inside the vehicle.
If you've seen a shot piece of plate you'll figure that there's probably nearly as much shrapnel as you'd find in a handgrenade.
Hence, the negative effect of the lighter HE filled round slowing quicker and producing less penetration was i think generally figured to be not made up for its damaging potential..
hmm, I'd say do a search on 'filler' and see what they say there

I doubt we will see any changes for one, but BTS have mentioned some significant changes for command and control for CM2, don't be surprised to hear stuff about that sooner or later I guess

i don't think that counts as a squire battle since it isn't nearly silly enough.
Thoughts?

O thank you master! O thank you!
Croda and I are already battling, but I think that's over who doesn't have to sleep with you tonight. A proper kiiniigit battle would be fantastical!

Mr Morse Sponsor sir!
It is indeed a genius of a setup. However I am concerned, that as happened last time when you set up a game, you will be quickly consumed by my forces. I will try to let you have some shred of honor left sir when I've finished sir.
So Sponsor sir, how do i get to be a kinigit. I know scrapping your underwear is just a jolly fun job and there are ques to pop the zits on your back, but really, i wouldn't mind a chance at quaffing and frollicking, and that really messy eating where none of the food gets in your mouth, you know the one. Yeah, generally having a jolly good time with the rest of the knigitits.
And what sad times these are when passing Knitigits can call a blood hamster on humble old squires squires

I'd suggest getting your brother and giving him a wedgie. Or taunting him for being a gamey bastard.

The cc5 thread is getting depressing. The enemy are using the whine-till-bored and cry-for-mommey technique and it's just annoying.
I expect soon to be removed from the cc5 thread and they can go back to their laughable discussions on history, on-board nebelwurfers and other such junk.
*depressed*
