Replace "directors" and "quarter" with "fans" and "day" and I think you've nailed it...Originally posted by MikeyD:Imagine if BTS... had to answer to a money hungry board of directors every quarter?

Nice, thanks!

Must've had a round ready in the chamber that cooked off
Bad luck, man.

That's funny, neither did I. I don't recall even addressing, let alone insulting you - and yet you somehow felt the need to include me in your childish comments.Originally posted by Iron Chef Sakai:I did'nt come on to this thread and start slinging insults
I assure you, if you do get banned, it won't be a favor to the moderators alone.If you expect me to listen to crap like that and not comeback with something then do yourself a favor and ban me right now.

hey ICS, go to www.m-w.com and look up "irony."Originally posted by Iron Chef Sakai:...your steryotypical annoying spoiled brat.

Proving once again that this isn't just a board, it's an education... thanks dalem.

I thought this was the bailiwick of that immortal alien in the Hitchhiker's Guide series... don't tell me the 'pudlians are stooping to Ambrosian (as in Stephen, not the food of the gods) methods of credit-taking?Originally posted by Iskander:As always on the cutting edge of societal evolution ("insulting one idiot at a time)

dalem and Michael - wasn't Cannon Co. an organic artillery unit, equipped with 105mm howitzers or some such, while the 57mm were grouped in an AT unit? Or was the AT part of Cannon Co. as well?

It's a little like passing out free cans of Bud to encourage folks to buy Guinness...

That's true, although if you're playing an opponent who's a fiend for accurate OBs, you can figure that he'll have an agreeably low proportion of Fireflies on the field - once you destroy them, you're back to facing 75/76mm guns. And a Panther is a nice thing to have when the Churchills are shrugging off everything else you throw at them.Originally posted by redwolf:For example, I think the Panther is quite nice against the Americans, but against the British it is too vulnerable to 17pdr fire.
When Challengers and Comets start appearing, though, all bets are off...

So if I understand your description correctly, it makes no difference to vertical armor angle if the AFV is on a slope with an extreme nose-high or nose-down attitude?Originally posted by redwolf:CMBO's angle resolution is not quite as complicated as people sometimes think. There is always a horizontal angle which is determined from the facing of the target tank (and nothing else for horizontal). And there is a vertical angle which is the angle of the plate, added or subtracted to by the height difference of the unit's positions (and nothing else for vertical). Those two angles which are always 90 degrees to each other are then combined with a simple angle addition.

Hear, hear. And the contributors to the MG Poll thread showed a noteworthy ability to ignore his puerile remarks there.

I'd really like to see some snowed-on (not snow-camoed) German armor like Gordon's allied tanks.

Unless you have 802.11 and a laptop, the ability to take it into the crapper for one.</font>Originally posted by murpes:</font><blockquote>quote:</font><hr />Originally posted by Louie the Toad:

And you get the time delay when they reach the end point of the previously-plotted move (red cube) before they start along to the recently-added waypoint(s).
IIRC, as long as the unit is still in the red waypoints, you can alter the white ones as much as you want with no time penalty, even if they were placed in an earlier turn.

Heh heh, I don't remember what I had for lunch today, but I can't forget the names of SL leaders... it's a giftYou are right - in SL he is Rosenberger, in ASL he was Klotz, IIRC.
Good catch!

Originally posted by ryddle and Michael Dorosh:
That's funny - in my copy he's Col. Rosenberger. Did they change the countersheets in different editions of SL? :confused:Q. Can anyone remember the name of the German Col. in SL who actually provided a negative benefit (a 6 + 1 perhaps?).
A. Col. Klotz - there was a poster here named after him - the same guy who did the illfated ASL2CM site.

I haven't tried it, but on-board mortars should be able to fire at TRPs at night just like during daylight (since their ability to do so depends not on LOS but on remaining stationary all game).

Try using the Sneak order for that last 15 or 20 meters.

Even though I've been playing since the beta demo, I still only have a rough idea of what the Germans are yelling about - let's see, "mein bein" is bad, "ja!" is good... That's half the reason I rarely play Poles or French, I don't have a clue what they're trying to tell me. Can't wait til CMBB's Russians (and all those Axis minors).
Has anyone requested subtitles for the engine rewrite?

FSTK mentioned the helmet - what are some other examples? My post-war knowledge is rather sparse; were there significant changes made to TOEs, tactics, strategic thinking, logistics, etc. based on things the Germans had done better?

Try playing the Brits more!

"You can't miss."
Whoever wrote these instructions was obviously some REMF who never played CM.
I'm looking for scenarios focusing on combat engineers

There is at least one scenario out there (maybe at the Depot?) covering Peiper's attack on Trois Ponts; I would think it includes "the damned engineers."
