Thanks arado234 I'll try it. Im sure I can neutralize the US and take England. But to beat the Russians with the kinda $$ they have seems unrealistic, but now I have hope. Thanks.

Thanks n0kn0k. I tried that first, but the Ruskies Declared War on me and ran over the Top of me. I figgerd that with them getting more that twice the MMP per turn than Germany that perhaps Attacking them early before they built themselves up might work. Wrong! The embarasing part is that Im only playing the AI.

AS the proud new owner/player of SC2 Im wondering if its even possible to beat the Russians as an Axis player? If so, how? Q 2: What triggers the AI to have Italy join the battle? I just got trounced in Russia (w/ a small force fending of the French in Germany) just outside Lenningrad, after smashing Moscow and all cities in between, Italy never joined in, leaving the Allies devoting all their recorces to the Germans. Thanks for your input.

Thanks tar

Im wondering if there is a site online where I can play against others in CM games, preferably Beyond Overlord. Thanks

If CMBO is so popular, why arn't more people playing it online? Perhaps they are and just not going to the BB to find new opponents? Did enjoy all of the comments, thanks.

Speaking of mines. I had an enemy mortar team lingering in a mine field of mine and take NO damage. No one had been thru that mine field before. This mortar team wanderd around at the center of the mine field (next to the marker ) avoiding fire from various sources, moved out of it then back into it then finally out of it again. This went on over a period of about 5 turns. Qusetions are: Can some mine fields be duds? Can you plat a mine field in the trees? (this mine field was in the trees, maybe thats why it didnt work) Is a mortar team small enough that they could be 'Lucky' and just missed them?

You know Like you going home to watch the tape delayed game on TV and someone tells you the score.

I know I read it some where Searched , reread the demo instructions. After 2 hrs I decided to swallow my pride and turn to you guys. Whats the proceedure for getting the battle (camera) view from inside tha Tank? Thanks in advance

OK I wasnt going to mention that I'm playing Haagar in this one. But since he showed his face..... Update Turn 17 Computer hasn't called a halt to this fiasco. Reinforcements arrive. Waiting are Two shermans (Haggar tells me they'r both his 'Big ' ones.) and troops swarming down the hill. I 1) targeted the closest Sherman w/the Panther 2)Had the men Run at the other one. (hoping to distract it maybe even kill it at close range) 3)Crossed my fingers. I have no hope that these measures will do any good.

Havn't heard much about Axis Victories in VoT. Is this one a lopsided ? Axis need a increase % boost? if so how much?

Must be a typo. I couldnt find the other minefields either.

Thanks Mark IV Actually I talked him into a rematch where I get 50% increase. Hope thats enough. And I will be WAY more attentive. Still I did use the default set up. Won't in the ReMatch. Im gonna play this till the puter says its over. Curious to see if it will wait till after the reinforcements arrive and die. His whole force should be there waiting for them. (sigh)

Playing Valley of tears via E mail w/ a friend Im Axis Experiance: LD, Riesberg, CE Beta demos both sides several times vs. AI and human players. Well its turn 13 now. All bunkers eliminated. most men eliminated. those alive are either 'routed' or 'panic' so no one is taking orders. All I can do is watch. Allies are swarming up to the top center from both sides. 2 Shermans just got on the road in the center and are also headed up the hill. It Occures to me that the AI wont quit untill reinforcements arrive ... whenever that is.

Forgot to mention Im playing Valley of Terror
