The only thing I didn't like about Halloween this year is that every time some kids came to the door I had to get up from my CM game to give them their candy. Oh well,next year I'll just move the computer closer to the door...

Nice work! I especially like the barrel camoflague in the first picture,I first saw an example of that in a 1/35 scale diorama in a Verlinden catalog.

I agree with Mr DIFOLCO, the real genius behind CM is the engine and all the complex calculations that go on behind the graphics (which are excellent IMO). Every shot is placed IAW the actuall weapons characteristics and performance,every impact is based on the range and the exact angle at which the shot strikes. All the damage that shot causes is based on the armor characistics of the target vehicle,it's an incredible simulation of WWII combat. I'd still play the game if it used pictures of tabletop counters.

Thanks for the enlightenment,I didn't know anyone in the Reichstag who dared stand up to the Nazis had even survived that period.Felder must have been a very brave man,my hat's off to him and all the others who stood with him.

Top Gun,I'm running all kinds of mods,and I'm using a 300 Mhz AMD,with a Voodoo 3 2000(16megs)and 64 Megs of RAM,so you should have no problems.
P.S. that includes some Hi-Res mods,I would avoid grass texture mods as those do seem to slow things down somewhat.

I just try to remember METT-T: Mission,Equipment,Terrain,Tactics,and Time.
Which basically comes down to: recon the map thoughraly,find the high ground,the choke points,and the best cover and utilize them to my best advantage.

I've found it much easier to send my little digital soldiers out to thier deaths after ingesting a couple of good Honey Brown Lagers.

This one worked out in my favor,I'm in the middle of a PBEM game,med map,moderate hills,village,U.S. against Germans one of my 81mm's popped a Hetzer on the first round of an area fire that I had called because the Hetzer had killed one of my Chaffee's.
Talk about lucky shots! My mortar team was only Regular quality,so there wasn't any uncanny skill involved.

Let's not forget Microsoft's way of eating up developers it becomes associated with,not that BTS would desire or allow that,but sometimes in the case of a megacorp and a small private company the little guy isn't given a choice...

Guys,the Army isn't giving up ALL it's heavy units,IIRC only 3 out of 10 active Divs.are going to the Medium Div. concept and none of the Nat'l Guard Divs. are either.From what I've read in Army Times and Soldiers Magazine the Medium concept is meant as a gap filler to give the RDF some heavier backbone until the heavy armored units can reach the theater of operations,AND to add some weight in OOTW operations where heavy units are too much FP to throw into the mix.

Killer site Kump!Thanks for posting your mods for us,I never could get the FTP to work.
Not a shot at you Tom,I'm only semi-computer literate,so I'm sure I was doing something wrong.
