I would love to know this too. Firing the flame weapon as indirect fire please (vehicles). [ November 13, 2002, 10:22 AM: Message edited by: Maxx ]

I'd pay to play this one. I bet the mods would be nifty.

The Finns wore helmets?

Well, I think most of us have already agreed we want to see, in order, 1) The Boer War. 2) The French and Indian War. 3) Admiral Perry opens up Japan.

I agree with Redwolf. Speed to flank GE armor is the Russian 'secret'. The T-34 has an impressive top speed for its size.

Tractor works is one of my favorite multiplayer maps. I haven't tried it vs. the AI, but it's great fun against a decent player.

Does that mean you were proven to be right? [ November 05, 2002, 02:26 AM: Message edited by: Maxx ]

Best to cap that tube of glue and open a window.

LOL!

I can vouch for Agua, he's a first class gent in multiplayer. He's a pretty good player too

Give it a week, and you should be pleasantly surprised

Thanks for the test info Treeburst. I've noticed a big difference using this command in CMBB from CMBO. When receiving fire the unit breaks nearly all the time. Your data (when not under fire) is aprreciated.

Yes. Yes, and yes.

A way to turn off the 'Eliminated' tag on dead units. I like to use the label feature, but often it's way too cluttered in the killing zone to see anything, especially when I am zoomed out. Alternatively, is there a way to change that label? Maybe to just a capital 'E'?

I've been looking for a recording of the Russian song 'Arise'. Anyone know where I might find that?

Thanks for the info Steve. Computer generated forces it is.

Can any grogs comment here? Doesn't MP40 stand for 'machine pistol 1940'? MP44 is 'machine pistol 1944'? Wasn't 6th army the best equipped formation in the Wehrmacht in 1942? Didn't Paulus use 'assault groups' in Stalingrad equipped with primarily SMG squads? I feel strongly this should be addressed by BTS. As it stands now, if I am allowed to purchase my units as the Soviets, and the terrain is in factories, and the time period is 1942-1943, I can almost guarantee the Germans are gonna be wiped out in any firefights where the numbers are are close to 2:1 in the germans favor.

My suggestion would be to add German SMG squads earlier than Feb '44. Please see this thread for details: http://www.battlefront.com/cgi-bin/bbs/ultimatebb.cgi?ubb=get_topic;f=23;t=002818

As a side note, we have seen a few (very few) GE units who have 1 or 2 PPSh's equipped. This dramatically helps overall firepower. Do they pick these up during the battle? Or is it a randomly generated thing at the QB start?

Bone: Thanks for the response. Yes, you are quite right. That would be textbook tactics vs. SMG squads, where LOS is available from say 80 meters and beyond. But on the maps we are playing (and addicted to ), most of the fighting occurs inside factories, where contact is made between 10 and 80 meters. I wish I had some screenshots here to illustrate.. the assaulting GE INF is virtually annihilated in any kind of static firefight within this range.
