Pvt. Ryan

It is annoying, but if you think about it, if the pillbox was overwhelmed by the enemy and you could not get the crew out, they would just be killed or captured anyway. By abandoning they give you chance to herd them to the rear. One way around this is to place your pillboxes so that they have a more restricted field of fire - not so much that they don't cover enough area to be useful, but so that they don't have LOS to the whole battlefield. I had made an Omaha scenario in CMBO with plenty of pillboxes. They did a great job of holding off the troops on the beach, but eventually they ran out of ammo and the Americans had it easy after that. Some of us asked BTS to increase the ammo supply for pillboxes, but the reply was that any more ammo would have been ahistorical and that we should learn to conserve.

It worked the same way in CMBO.

I think Capt. Manieri made it in for the Italians.

I received it in West Los Angeles. It actually came yesterday. Can someone call in a bomb threat to my office building so I can go home and play?

I don't have the game yet, but I have started a list of things I expect to complain about. I'll let you know as soon as the mailperson shoves the package in my hands!

I just got home a little while ago and I am too exhausted to go to my office to see if it came. 18 holes of golf in 100 heat is a bitch! The course was brown except for the greens. I kept picturing tanks rolling across the fairway as if it were the Russian steppe.

I think you'll get it today, as others in FL have.

Enough with the negative waves. Don't worry, you will get it today, unless of course you don't.

I want a pony!

What I meant was whether you live out in the sticks or not. If you live in a city you are more likely close to the source of your mail. For example, Los Angeles' mail comes in through LAX. I don't know if the mail is sorted there, but I know there is a large sorting or distribution center in Playa del Rey. It's one of those places that looks like a post office, but it doesn't serve the public, it just sorts the mail and distributes it to local post offices. The closer you are to the centralized source of your mail, the more quickly you will receive it.

I think the tank hunter teams would make good recon units as well, but won't they cost too much to use without much caution.

If BFC mailed them early on Friday and you get your mail later in the day there's a chance you will get it tomorrow. I would expect it Tuesday, but if you live close to a large mail distribution center you have a good chance of Monday. But don't jump all over the Postmistress!

You press the down arrow key on your keyboard and rotate the screen left or right with your mouse. I think it's the same as CMBO.

This is why I had it sent to my work address. I think you will receive your copy tomorrow. I won't be going into the office tomorrow, but I will be checking in to see if it comes. If it does I will stop by the office on my way home.

It wasn't because they ran out of time, it was because they ran out of space on the CD. I don't think any future releases of CMBB will be any more complete than the current one, but maybe they will. We'll be enjoying the game while you wait.

Well, I don't NEED to change anything, but some people who will be purchasing CMBB from a source other than BFC may WANT to change SOMETHING.

I can host it for you for a while if it's not too big.

We're here, we're Heer, get used to it.

I don't expect it in California until Tuesday, but you never know!

So, can this method possibly be used to change any other "undesired text" in the game?

Garry, I meant when Madmatt speaks on CMHQ, not on the forum or anything he writes on Battlefront.com. AFAIK, CMHQ is has no official ties to BFC. I think the situation being discussed here was Madmatt's description of a mod hosted on CMHQ.

I have a book called The Armed Forces of World War II by Andrew Mollo. I've had it since I was a kid and used it as a reference for modelling. It has color illustrations and photos for units of all the nations and has insignia and organizational charts. You can find it here.

I think there are already flag mods available, and any other interface mods you may want will surely be available before you get the game. The only thing you won't be able to change is where it says WG in place of SS, but you can live with that... can't you?
