  1. And you'll only see the enemy casualties once you have fully ID'd the enemy squad. Part of the Fog of War.
  2. In response to Mr "I want to harpoon Moby Dick"... Use your inferior intelligence and obsolete eugenics to: SEND THE NEXT TURN...
  3. To start over, you select it from the list of available scenarios/operations, just like starting any other game.
  4. Marders aren't bad... as long as you are not facing mortars and .50 cal mg's. Use them as long range TD's and you'll do okay. Think of them as a slow, non-turreted Hellcat. Shoot and Scoot.
  5. You may want to check the tech Support forum for questions on the LAN. I think it can, but some people have had problems getting it to work. A search on that forum should give you some answers.
  6. I think the Battle of the Bulge was a big German mistake, at least in some parts. Yes, it was a success in some areas, but in the end it was a waste of men and material. Second... Hitler's insistence on building Me262's as bombers. If production had concentrated on fighters, some things may have been different.
  7. I have found out that once you get an error when trying to burn a copy to a CD, then that CD is toast. You should use a new blank. Sometimes it's the blank that is the problem. Try to use good brand name cd-r's. Don't use generic labels. They tend to get errors more often in my experience.
  8. Some tanks (especially Allied ones) have smoke mortars mounted next to the main gun, so the smoke round availability might refer to that.
  9. Okay, harpoon-boy, that explains Mr Rodent's absence, but what about you? Send me the next turn you git.
  10. I have found that they are scaled somewhat to the number of points (at least the "large" size maps are anyway).
  11. I don't know about you, but if a 20mm shell passed thru a vision slit and bounced around,. I sure would not want to be a crewman in that tank. That's part of how the small shells knock out the larger tanks... by causing crew casualties and damaging interior equipment.
  12. Yep, played one of those once. The map was huge, but it was really wide as compared to long. I'd have to say at least 4 times as wide as it was deep. And it does take a while to scroll across <g>.
  13. I believe it was said that it was hard-coded, just like tracers.
  14. I believe MadMatt said it goes by US Eastern Time.
  15. Don't ignore zooks. They can hurt a KT from side or rear, especially when inside 100 meters. Don't take a KT into city streets if you think there are enemy infantry lurking. You're asking for it then.
  16. I use Zonealarm, and as long as I enable Combat Mission to act as a server, AND type in my opponent's IP, I don't have a problem.
  17. <BLOCKQUOTE>quote:</font><HR>Originally posted by Abbott: ALRIGHT, where has that despicable excuse for an opponent Hamsters gotten off to this time? Send me another of your Looney Tunes type moves. I am looking forward to beating your gameily picked OOB with my non-gamey picks. <HR></BLOCKQUOTE> Hamsters? What about his kin by whatever Harpooner? Haven't heard from him either. Maybe they absconded to Siberia to watch lemmings jump off cliffs.
  18. The Soviets used to use a 125mm AT gun (same gun that's in the T-72, T-80, etc), but I believe even they have phased it out in place of AT missiles. Like Michael said, Size and Mobility are key. That 125mm AT gun was huge, and hard to conceal. While AT missiles are small, and easy to move.
  19. Good grief. I say throw him in the Cesspool and then see what happens.
  20. It seems to be that most cards supported by Nvidia are able to support fog tables. ATI cards don't. There are others on this forum that are more knowledgeable in these respects, but that's the basics.
  21. Well then Lorak, you git yourself, send me a setup of any type so I can work my way into being knighted (or squired by somebody) by your most loathful highness someday.
  22. Well, for starters, you need an Nvidia based video card. ATI based cards do not support fog. The Geforce 2 and TNT2 work extremely well.
  23. Thanks Madmatt. I have done a full install, but that could be the culprit all right.
  24. Actually, Matt has said to send him email directly. The sales address is so backed up it takes a while to get to, but if sent to him, he can get onto it a lot quicker.
