I'm wondering if someone who had just gotten the game would actually go online and take time to post it on the board?
Awww, yeah I'm sure they would....wouldn't ya? I would...lets see, nuttin' yet.

I've managed to take the panther out 2 times out of 10 times with 105mm arty fire, playing VoT against the AI. One time it was a very big explosion and the panther brewed up, didn't see any crew get out. Direct hit I guess.

*sitting in shadows* I used to be a huge player of West Front and East Front...until I played Combat Mission. There are NO tactics I used in WF and EF I can use in CM. I have to actually think as if I was on the actual battlefield to play CM. And I LOVE IT!

Tyro,
I think the default is sized up one or two notches...(help out if I'm wrong on this someone) try putting the scale to realistic. That's what I play at and I've never seen anything fire through a hill etc...units are hard to see from high up views though.

hmmm, this is not the discussion I was expecting to see under the thread title
btw...Canadians ARE in CM...was that the question?

What is your unit scale set to? If you have it enlarged it can appear that strange things happen but it is an illusion. On the other hand, if you have it set to realistic and those things are happening then it does sound odd...at least firing through a hill. Spotting is a hard one to call.

it's about uhhh...Combat!
It follows a squad during wwII from D-day on...it was on for 5 season I believe, back in the 60s. Vic Morrow was the 'sarg'.------------------

No divorce court but I have been forced to sign a contract allowing my wife equal time on the computer and guidelines as to volume levels while playing CM.

I just answered my own question on railroad tracks. Did a quick search and one thread came up with Fionn saying that YES tracks are in and YES you can drive on them!
YAY!

This thread brings up a question I have had for a while and keep forgetting to ask....Will there be railroad tracks or railway lines etc in CM?

I seem to remember someone having trouble with flickering graphics when they used ESC? I searched but couldn't find it. The problem is once I hit ESC and then go back to CM the graphics are flickering and it becomes a bit choppy...but I am able to continue. Anyone know a fix or a way to get around this?

Great site!

Tom,
I think that would make a great scenario! In fact there isn't much I can think of in 1944-45 ETO that wouldn't work with CM....well except for latrine digging, chow lines etc...but ya know

I suppose you might know an enemy tank is using area fire if he is firing at an area where you have no troops and you can see him doing that. If you DO have troops there then the fact that his fire is missing more than hitting might be a good sign. Just a guess

My son got a GI Joe for Christmas and this last month I bought him the 21st Century Fallschrimjager uniform set for it. I made sure that he knows it's not GI Joe anymore it's Fallschrimjager Johann. I have the 21st Century Panzer Grenadier standing on the shelf above my computer desk
Also check out a company called Dragon, they make high quality 12" wwII action figures and even offer alot of Waffen SS versions...more expensive than 21st Cen. though.

Murgen,
You're in luck! The Eastern front is slated for CM II

Scott is right, ICQ is a VERY big memory hog and on my machine when I played an email game of CM having icq running in the background really made CM choppy and there was an annoying flicker at the bottom of the game screen. Of course it's CM so I played on!
I'm going to look into some other things like AOL IM etc... but alot of folks seem to have icq.

Gettin' down and dirty in combat, feeling the ground shake, seeing the dirt fly and hearing the men curse!
btw, I recently loaded up some 'other' wargames I have and just couldn't bear to even look at them...oh, those sad hex shaped hills...*bidding them all farewell*
-
The prefs file should be right inside your combat mission folder along with the BMP and wave folders etc...

Where they running down a hill? Can they pick up momentum running down hill? Hec, I'll have to try that...Maybe they were just running faster than usual. I know, not a very good explanation, but worth a look...i guess.

I like the idea of having both types of reviews. Maybe one or two set, well played, well versed, qualified etc... reviewers and also a spot where the other players can leave a short review and yea or nay etc. Of course this all runs into alot of time to manage that sort of thing.
btw...I like the idea of being able to add a comment about mods, new sounds etc., too. I use comments like those to decide if I spend time downloading mods or not, it really helps.
