This is not to be confused w/ Carentan the "operation" that is w/ the game. It's a user made "battle" so there should be no where to go, or is it actually somethng else? ------------------ "The first thing we do, let's kill all the lawyers" -- King Henry VI, Part II, Act 4, sc.2, l.86

This scenario is listed as a battle. Currently playing Ger. v. AI Victory conditions are a bit unclear. Do I advance off the board on the two roads, hold VP's, attrit enemy? Briefing reads almost more like operation. Any experience w/ this. So far turn 10 of 90! thanks. ------------------ "The first thing we do, let's kill all the lawyers" -- King Henry VI, Part II, Act 4, sc.2, l.86

Currently playing a game v. AI (monstrous) which has ALOT of Bocage to deal with. In assulting a position what have people found to be effective techniques to approach move through and continue, w/out being slaughtered and hung up in the twigs while the MG's rip.....

Do not think it does. I do know that demo 1.0 cannot be played on 1.02 so I believe that will continue ------------------ "The first thing we do, let's kill all the lawyers" -- King Henry VI, Part II, Act 4, sc.2, l.86

Yawn......

<BLOCKQUOTE>quote:</font><HR>Originally posted by Scorpion: I am not sure if you are aware of it or not, but the way that post came across was extremely condescending.<HR></BLOCKQUOTE> It's always well to remeber that a significant number of people on this board live outside the US and a significant number do not speak English as their native tongue. Now I do not know if this applies to Sten, but his profile (email icon w/ ? mark) shows that he is in Stockholm, Sweden. So there always is a chance that what a person writes as interpretated by the reader is mistaken. As gaffertape said ALOT is lost or uncertain w/ typed text only.

Ahh memories.......The General and I too am one of those who loved Starship Troopers from AH.

Gentlemen The issue of tanks in the basement has been carefully discussed on this forum ad nauseum. I for one am sick of slackass posterboys who make unsupported claims and fail to adequately search the topic before inflicting their infantile drivel on the rest of us. Have a warm glass of SHUT THE HELL UP ======= Please note, due to a courtesy to MrPeng no smilies were used in the above rant, and since the degree of misunderstanding that has been occuring around here has increased, the above is a purely hypotheical test of the early rant system. Should this have been an actual rant you would have been given instructions on who to call.[ie for the satarically impaired, I just have too much time on my hands at work ( ) sorry ------------------ "The first thing we do, let's kill all the lawyers" -- King Henry VI, Part II, Act 4, sc.2, l.86

Reading this thread (don't ask me why) makes me at least appreciate my iMac. Has a nifty little feature in it's disk copy application that creates an EXACT duplicate of the CD on your hard disk. So when I play CM the actual CD stays in it's case in storage and never has to be used for authentication. ------------------ "The first thing we do, let's kill all the lawyers" -- King Henry VI, Part II, Act 4, sc.2, l.86

Peter: As a segue into "revisionist history (sigh) how is production coming on Vol. 2 of combatvsion? Alot of new folks here might not know of your efforts (go to http://combatvision.panzershark.com/ )

I was just reading the macgamenews.com review (see BTS's thread) In the review they said, <BLOCKQUOTE>quote:</font><HR>WOW! It means CM is realistic down to the shells fired. While some games just take a shell fired as a random occurrence, CM takes all the “real world” factors into account. This offers to us a degree of realism that no other game has.<HR></BLOCKQUOTE> I offer my own witness to this effect. The other night I was playing a QB that had me shelling w/ mortars, a Hellcat. I was using the first God's eye view level, 4?5? and was directly over the Hellcat. Suddenly I saw the mortar round drop directly INTO the open turret. BLAM, catastrophic and all. Totally COOL
