One drawback to the practice of leveling buildings is that it creates even better defensive positions for the enemy. I'm sure every Fallschirmjager at Cassino would agree.

Ah yes, those early war British Cruisers. The only tanks that will have you wishing you don't run into any Italian M13/40s.

Only a graphic thing. All guns in CM have one firepower value whenever they shoot, regardless of the number of rounds per burst.

Excellents news indeed! Welcome back

How many different ways can you say "Bonzai" and "You Die Maline"? </font>

OR He has a damaged gun. A vehicle that suffers a gun damaging hit will no longer traverse the turret, since targetting is no longer an option.

Not true. The 2cm Breda for the Italians and the 2cm FlaK for the Germans are easily the equal of the .50 </font>

The 'A7' listing is for the hull mounted 75mm gun firing AP rounds. 'H7' is for the same gun firing HE shells. The other listing is for the turret mounted 37mm gun firing AP rounds.

The MG42 had no equal in the allied inventory, and the same could be said of the .50 cal for the axis side. The MG42 works well as an anti-infantry weapon, although it can take down light vehicles if they stray too close. The .50 cal doesn't have the ROF of the MG42, but it will mince most German HTs and A/Cs out to 500 meters. I suspect it would also chew its way through most of the buildings featured in CM.

Hull down is a fighting position. No one in their right mind would seek a fighting position that masks 2/3 of their firepower.

Correct Correct again IMO, Hull down in CM means hiding as much of the vehicle as possible behind a small rise or other terrain feature, while (Here's the important part) still being able to fire it's main gun .

Gun damaging hits on a Grant or Lee will render both guns inoperable.

I just lined up a Grant and StuG III and compared the height of both vehicle's 75mm gun. The StuG's barrel is lower, and that vehicle has no problem firing from a hull down position.

The screenshot section shows a captured Valentine used by the 10th Panzer Div in Tunisia.

Ah, thanks Kingfish. I only took a short look at the demo last night and none of my M3s did that. Maybe it was just too limited an observation on my part. </font>

It's not just one gun, as the 37mm and 75mm each have different ROFs. You'll also notice that the 37mm will engage targets outside of the 75mm traverse range.
