US Army 1968 to 1975. The unit I am most proud to have served in was 223rd Combat Aviation Bn (Dong Ha) 1971. ------------------ "Then we shall fight in the shade." (Greek general's comment upon being told that the Persian archers could blot-out the sun with their arrows.)

What do you guys think? <HR></BLOCKQUOTE> I'm not a programer or such......, however from what I can gather, it's the same basic trip as with CM. They were more interested in detail and realism in a technical rather than a graphical sense. They used their resourses to enhanse the sense of reality that we hard core WARGAMERS are most interested in rather than to provide eyecandy. That having been said......I find myself sucked in to the flash and movement quite often. The sound is exceptional and really pumps up the emotional side for me too. ------------------ "Then we shall fight in the shade."

Thanks! ------------------ "Then we shall fight in the shade." (Greek general's comment upon being told that the Persian archers could blot-out the sun with their arrows.)

Let's do a poll. All you folks who read this thread post in your video RAM stats. I've got 16megs of voodoo3 myself. ------------------ "Then we shall fight in the shade."

You guys have me all shook-up now. I've been eagerly awaiting Mech Warrior 4 because I loved Mech Warrior 3 so much. Microprose developed MW3 before Hasbro sucked them up (I believe....) What if Hasbro as messed-up MW4? ------------------ "Then we shall fight in the shade." (Greek general's comment upon being told that the Persian archers could blot-out the sun with their arrows.)

Just got it yesterday. Microsoft's Combat Simulator 2 (WWII Pacific Theater). Not bad at all. It beats the first one all to hell. Especially in the air to ground stuff. ------------------ "Then we shall fight in the shade."

Better and better! ------------------ "Then we shall fight in the shade." (Greek general's comment upon being told that the Persian archers could blot-out the sun with their arrows.)

Nice! I'm looking forward to getting my hands on this one. Thanks Tiger! ------------------ "Then we shall fight in the shade." (Greek general's comment upon being told that the Persian archers could blot-out the sun with their arrows.)

Man! I love this roughed-up stuff. Keep it up Tiger. Thanks Again, Jack Bridge ------------------ "Then we shall fight in the shade." (Greek general's comment upon being told that the Persian archers could blot-out the sun with their arrows.)

I was watching a documentary video tape last night (Achtung Panzer) and they said that STG III crews often stored many extra main gun rounds on the floor of their AFV. In CM STG III's carry 54 rounds. In real life they were packed with as many as 90. Any chance this could be modeled in CM2? ------------------ "Then we shall fight in the shade."

Thanks for the tip. I downloaded those mods for PE several days ago and I have had a fun few sessions replaying the canned Italy Campaign in a Maus. What a trip. ------------------ "Then we shall fight in the shade." (Greek general's comment upon being told that the Persian archers could blot-out the sun with their arrows.)

(I did a search and was unable to find a related thread) I noticed that in CM the King Tiger (Porche Turret) is modeled the same way as the non Porche Turret. In reality the gun mantel was different...wasn't it???? ------------------ "Then we shall fight in the shade."

A very small paragraph and pic in PC Gamer. ------------------ "Then we shall fight in the shade." (Greek general's comment upon being told that the Persian archers could blot-out the sun with their arrows.)

Just added Tiger's new Sandy Tiger MOD into my bmp files. Man! Was I impressed! This has to be the most realistic looking AFV I have seen to date. I'm really impressed at the MODS that try to achieve that "field operations" look. Keep up the good work Tiger! ------------------ "Then we shall fight in the shade."
