    That game has been discussed in one of the general forums here. It's 100% WW2 with no close air support or indirect fire. While fun to play, Black Sea is much closer even though it simulates circa 2017. I was thinking there might be a board game out there I missed. Pretty much up on all the PC ones. 

    Main Battle Tank from GMT games might fit what you are looking for. Squad and single vehicles up to 1987 with all of the major players. The base game has only Soviet vs the US but there are expansions that include West Germany, UK and Canada.

    Anyone else notice that the left drive sprocket on the M60 doesn’t rotate? The right one is normal.

    Posted back on the first page. Maybe it will be fixed with the next patch. Or maybe with the next release.  I would love to see the British and German kit added to this era.

  3. When selecting a spotter who has called in a mission there is no visual reference to the targeted area. Not sure if this is a bug or something has changed on how plotted barrages are shown. This was playing the on to Berlin campaign, first mission. 

    Correction it seems I have a bad install on my computer. I tried a new install on my wife's computer and all is fine. Well other than the fact my wife wants to know why I am installing CM on her computer.

    "Out for Schwimm" scenario. 

    The goal is to cross the river. However, the bridge is broken and there is no river banks suitable for crossing. AI can't find the path either.

    Looks like a bug.  

    You have to give it a move order to cross the river.  It is better to use a gradual bank and not a steep one.

  5. What worked for me was to set up a base of fire with half of the infantry and tracks on the brow of the ridge.  After establishing fire on the far bank and Identifying soviet positions I moved the rest up behind the tree cover and dismounted  the infantry on the near bank to take the soviets under fire.  Once they had established themselves in the woods I brought the rest forward. The 250/10 was used from the high ground to snipe at the mortar first and then any other spotted units.

    I can only get a 10 Mb/s connection over the phone-line, due to living in a nice rural area, and it took me under 20 min.

    4 1/2 hour must be some error,- you can't even get connections so slow...

    I too think Battlefront made the wrong call,- the weak point in the CM-series are the graphics, and if they want new customers, they better make the Demo as "shiny" as possible.

    Cheers,

     

    I only get 79 kbs at the end of a DSL hub and also took 4 hours to download. Be thankful for 10 MBs 

  7. Nice report Bill. Is it possible to scrounge weapons and ammo from knocked out vehicles know?

    On the other side of Cobru, I had an HMG Jeep providing harassment interdiction fire on the enemy infantry in and around the Rectangular Wood.. well, Baneman got what I believe to be a Stummel (either the same as was previously spotted near the L Shaped Wood, or a different one) into position to fire at my jeep.. one close round was enough to knock the jeep out of action and cause one casualty.. though the survivors did dismount with an MMG.. so, that's something
