The problem is, as already stated, that in most of the scenarios you can't stand off at the range where the German guns can show their advantage...

I have mine pre-ordered. Visions of the CM:BB preview at rune's place are recalled as my anticipation grows.
I was there. That was an interesting afternoon. What is Rune up to these days?
-
The General? I resubscribed one issue before they folded...

And German doctrine is to place mines on the road! It would have been interesting to see his T-34s run full speed into a minefield.
And if Elvis had been able to call in his mortars that would have been interesting too...

My birthday is 9 days away. Do I have a shot?

What setting are they using? Warrior or something higher?

Hmmm, not good...
A TRP (ideally two) is really needed with long delay arty. Esp if you have no FO.
More so on defence as you can make a reasonable guess where you want to make the enemy fight and can park it where they will have to hunker down...
Ohh well he must focus on his tanks as they are his only hope...
Lets hope he can make them work for him...
I counseled getting a couple of TRPs as did others, were they not available?

Mad Minute!

Compared to "real life", Bil is moving very quickly! I doubt even the Russian's of 44 would be moving this fast...until the enemy's positions had been fully developed. Compared to the way most of us play though he is moving at a snail's pace.

Naturally curved roads would impact the way you play? Why?
I meant visual impact...
-
For me the additional detail of the tanks, etc. is lost - I don't normally zoom in tight enough where additional detail there would make a difference.
What I would like to see are roads that curve naturally and smaller action tiles. Those changes would have the most impact to the way I play, I think.
And also, while I am at it, I would like to see true multiplayer games, i.e. 4 on 5, etc. I have lost track of that request over the years - what's the latest?
-
That would be nice. My 10-yr old son just loves that tank for some reason...
-
And how many of you can send binary via morse code??? Huh? Huh?
When was the last time you had to do that?! Ever?
-
I imagine you could have a different cycle rate for RT and WEGO?
-
I played the first couple of missions of The Outlaws and they were all nice and small. And then I got to the mission where the outlaws were a small part of much larger action. Way too big! Is there a way to skip that one?
-
I am waiting for true multiplayer, i.e. 3 on 2, 6 on 6, etc. I remember (maybe) hearing that somethng like that is being contemplated. What have you guys heard?
-
But Moon, he said that the turret had turned to face the gun so somebody in there saw something.
-
I know CW is going to be awesome - when I get home from this damn dusiness trip and am able to download it. But it seems we are years away from the East Front. That is what I most interested in. But Market-Garden and Bulge will keep me happily occupied...
-
Do you think you could add some links or put all these together on an ftp site somewhere? Not that I'm lazy or anything...
-
They are very busy cranking out Commmonwealth.

I can't +1 enough Phil's recommendation to slooooow things down. When I started playing very slowly things started to improve markedly. Letting your recon units have time to scope things out made a big difference. I am talking a couple of turns minimum. Also, the more eyes you have on the target area the better. Don't bring up the tanks until they have something to shoot at.
-
I am guessing an anti-tank rifle round. Hole looks too small for a 45mm AT round.
The tracks are interesting, they are a lot wider than normal. Looks like they have been extended outboard. Was that a field mod or did they send new tracks out from the factory? Didn't help it get out of the hole though...
-
I am just getting into it myself so no problem if there is a delay. We're all going to be here for years and years...

They are called Combat Commands. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Combat_command

Sure. But the ability of the T-34 to hit and penetrate goes down. There is more than one variable at work...
