  1. you mean like forgetting that the N Koreans have broke every promise ever and to every previous administration and then trotting over there, giving up concessions for nothing and then declaring on the way home the jobs jobbed?
  2. +100 Im behind the curve I will say - I decided not to get 4.0 yet etc but Im still yet to EVER see one of my BMP2Ms with a 3rd crew member added ever use its atgms. targetted, arced, or on their own. On the move ambush defense etc. Long range close range all aspects. Countless games as Russians. Ive brought it up numerous times in the past
  3. Oh what I told him is absolutely gamey as far as the saving and reloading. I think BPs advice is just similar chain of thought. Again though this is after the fact the author noticeably isnt having fun with being stuck in this situation. after all hes trying cease fire on mission start.
  4. These are probably obvious but night at low visibility Are the infantry spotting for the tank hunting, then stopping or slow crawling to cover when they spot the Germans? More important are they plugged in with the rest of your chain of command? If the infantry spotting for the tanks have clear lines of communication open to their superiors and your Shermans do as well the info will get disseminated quicker. Are your tanks using slow? Yes when contact is imminent its not always good to order moves that wont stop when they spot the enemy like hunt, but it will reduce your noise signature and give the Germans less clue or warning you.re about to arrive. Save up until the moment the fighting starts and then just run it back and pray to RNGesus. Especially if you hail fire with your Shermans - and you want to always do this with superior enemy armor and preferably as stacked as you possibly can make it : engage the panthers one by one use off map or on map indirect or. direct fire from mortars using smoke. to wall off the panthers Why not have some infantry AT squads with zooks if youve got them join in if possible when your tanks can. Again its not about being fair its about killing those bastards Ill try to think of more later. Dont recall playing this.
  5. definitely if you flow like water which I also tend to do on the attack
  6. what genuinely scares me is new members or people yrs from now are gonna read our jokes abt ufos with panther turrets or nazi nuclear vbieds at kursk and think this is stuff we.remaking up to joke with JK - not that those were old threads where JK excitedly revealed to us the secrets of his 'research'
  7. oh my gawd the nuclear vbied nazi ice creamwerfer? But what will they do against the flying saucers with underslung panther turrets?!
  8. Again the anecdote I mentioned regarding the shooting of German COs or someone who stood out seeming arrogant and leader like was told by US PARATROOPERS THEMSELVES why would they lie about their own actions?! When people say "this level of war crime" I point them to interviews of Bulge survivors and ask anyone to see how many fux are given over treatment meted out in the initial moments after capture towards German POWs, especially after Malmedy etc. Sorry it happened. It wasnt systemic. just for those guys platoon or whatever, and definitely wasnt a written order. It probably really pissed off some intel officers etc. But then again you tell some scared sh!tless 18 yr olds freezing in combat that learning about the TO&E of Hans divisionand fate of Hans division commander following the 20 July plot is more important than -BLAM! " Anyone else want to act arrogant? Wheres the next (mg, minefield, tank, around that corner)" I know Id be immediately more concerned with the immediate situation. I think people look at it too logically as well - " oh that was dumb they just offed the CO" First we.re applying peace time logic and no experience on the ground onto guys in an absolute hell hole of a situation and there was probably a lot of grim pleasure in just killing the enemy especially if he seemed 'arrogant'. 2. This logic doesnt hold up as well with the Heer but does work a lot better than if the situation was taking place in 1941 with well trained German troops. Still the old trope about German NCOs being trained in the next two( or one?) positions above their own jobs etc. meaning that the CO only probably wouldnt be privy to much more than the group and especially not so far forward
  9. oh i know it has thats why i mentioned it
  10. lol ya Ill shoot ya one when the game drops in all seriousness my friend
  11. im just disappointed they couldnt be bothered to add shtora eyes to complement the trophy ears.
  12. its well known western aps can defeat tunnel width and or bridge weight restrictions handily. And swat down a couple KH66s at the same time.
  13. wow dude. uncalled for. LLF has contributed a lot to this community and unless your using an alias he.s contributed much more than you.
  14. instant classic. Do I have permission to paraphrase that in heated political arguments as long as I say a "friend once told me.."?
  15. Sure. I had activation issues with several games and a couple long days at work so Ill have to sort out the activation later today or tomorrow for my opponent waiting. The website was having difficulties or something
  16. I dont have um.. whats the latest 5 doat update? I have 4.0 IIRC. PM if imterested and Ill find out asap BS FB BN Fi RT any of those. Pls let me know...
  17. yes the lack of decently simulated tank and ground combat is awful. Arma 3 isnt bad especially modded byt its a steep route to have to go through if you dont know what youre doing. And yes Panzer Elite was good but IMO a good tank sim absolutely NEEDS realistic infantry simulation. So thats my beef with PE, and Steel Beasts. DCS too, the infantry is...there but barely more than a human shaped onject that shoots at you. Obviously its a flight sin but if work was done somehow.. it.d just be wow. Anyways many of the naval games I pulled outta my butt that was just off top of my head and thats not even my niche scene.. a new game das boot is being made. vids on youtube looks very promising.
  18. all i know is I'd be happy as a pig in $hit if Paper Tigers AWESOME Road to Dinas red on red Syrian civil war campaigns redone.. @The_MonkeyKing cmsf 1 had a blue on blue nato scenario. iirc it was germans and dutch vs us/canadians. i could be totally wrong about that. heh. (who vs who)
  19. No absolutely not Im not naive enough to think the US government doesnt know. Cmon. I give it good odds the info WAS LEAKED from the US government - specifically the only branch left that seems to have ANY testicular fortitude left in it as far as open pushback towards Trump and thats the DoD and even then its been forced out of them largely or theyve had to do it in a way that basically ignores their contradiction of their CinC. See the admission after the NK visit that Trump got a bad deal from 'the pentagon', or that the military is still dealing with climate change as a fact whatever some moron in office thinks, regardless of whether the moron is a democrat or republican. which is good at least in this instance. I also know we.re not privy to everything declassified the US govt does even, its a big world, however it seems officially there is no response to this thumbing of the nose at the United States. Mind North Korea was always a problem, and yes I never woulda liked Trump; but again I feel this N Korea issue isnt solely politics or anything, its probably the most volatile situation that really can only end in disaster now IMO in the world. We know the Norks have been lying to us all along, Im not ignorant of my history. However we.re transitioning into a crucial time where those crazy bastards could possibly lob nukes at the mainland United States. Moreso than that the N Korean regime is based around a familial dynasty and boogeyman fear of the US means I have misgivings about when that line ends where those nukes will be going and whether or not theyll be on their way to targets... or if theyll rust in the ground like hopefully the rest of the world's stock continue to do
  20. I wish I could say I cant believe after all his crowing and boasting that the US hasnt responded to the overwhelming proof that the N Koreans basically played America and were lying through their teeth to D Trump. However.. Im not surprised he.s not doing anything despite this basically being the equivalent of snorting some phlegm into their spit and hocking a loogey in the US' face. Jeez at least you.d think we.d say "guess what? we lied too! biggest wargames ever this august.' anything
  21. I usually am not really into westerns as much to be honest. The Legend of Hells Gate was a suprisingly good movie and a western at that however.
