Oh, you're doing teh SPW 305(f) soon? Hmm... might hold off on that Char and Char alike battle then since IIRC it involves those as well.

Yup, I'd like this too.

Brilliant! Now, if you make the R35 next, I promise to upload a fully narrated video of me playing the Char and Char alike scenario to youtube

Don't worry Aris... we can live without your mods. we'll just live in misery, is all

Don't worry... all one needs to do is go into the bug report forum and look. And I got slapped too for something I didn't even know whas a known bug, I thought it was a messed up install on my part (the roadwheels on the flakpanzer 38t are wonky)

It's very nice of the game to tell us when all the mines in an area have been detonated

So the artillery blew up the mine? Or what?

Oh right! I remember you saying that when CMRT came out and people were asking for flamethrower mods. Oh well, at least we found a way to mod the sound...

AFAIK the flames on the flamethrowers are the same as the other flames, just streched out.

I think the "more caution needed" is a lesson learned hard for many people who are new to the CM franchise. People tend to think of tanks as pretty much invincible, but that illusion is quickly shattered.

Hehehe sounds good

Slightly unfair to put the young 'un on attack I'll be checking out the video tho

AFAIK the rear mounted 50 was meant to be used when the commander dismounts the turret and stands on the hull behind the turret. So yeah, not modeled in-game I think.

Nobody's being mean, we're just teasin'

Yeah, I learned long ago to alwasy bring a covering team to help the engineers taking out a bunker. That way there's at least two units "looking" for the enemy when they come out. Increases the odds of the ensuing confusion to favor me.

OMG! (we know )

They were basically relegated to the same type of units that used the MP18/28. So yeah, they might have seen combat use here and there but very rarely and mostly against partisans or even civilians. I guess that at the end of the war though, in situations like the battle of berlin, they might very well have been used.

You read it here: "The MP 41's production run was brief, as Erma filed a successful patent infringement lawsuit against Schmeisser's employer, Haenel." And this would be the Erma referred to: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Erma_Werke Now, please calm down your inner grognard and enjoy a glass of whiskey or something else because that tirade was pretty unnecessary

This is what Wikipedia had to say about it (yes, yes, I know "don't trust wikipedia" bla bla bla): "The MP 41 was not introduced as a service weapon with the German Army, but saw limited use with some SS and police units. They were also exported to Germany's ally, Romania. The MP 41's production run was brief, as Erma filed a successful patent infringement lawsuit against Schmeisser's employer, Haenel." Which is interesting since I didn't know that they did patent infringement lawsuits during the war :/ I just wish they'd implement the MP 41® and MP717® as there are plenty of evidence that it was used by german troops on the front lines even in the west.

Mine reloaded without being unbuttoned, so I think Lille is wrong about that detail.

Naah, she gave me this bloody thing called a conscience. Can't even commit petty crime like shoplifting or burglary (of rich peoples houses)... that could have helped when I was broke and unemployed, but noooo... she had to go and give me a conscience :/

Btw. for all of you who wish you had my mom. Keep in mind that my mother was an alcoholic for the first 35+ years of my life. It wasn't until my alcoholic stepdad (who tried to strangle me several times during my childhood and who was extremely verbally abusive) died that she cut down on the drinking. So while I have a mother who likes to do stuff like that now, she wasn't exactly the greatest mom growing up. Just felt I had to add that for some reason.

Great work as always

Needs more mods Can't wait to see these things fully modded up and in action Right now I'm holding off on using them since there are so many bugs with the pack (Pz IV and Pz III becomes bunkers from a certain distance, the flakpanzer 38 has wonky wheels and the german AT bunkers have a much too wide field of fire)
