I did a search for Axis Armour seeing if I could dig up some nice colour photos for a destop image, low an behold when the results came up there where 2 types of websites. Books I could buy, and combat mission mods...... TCMHQ was #4 on the results page... And I still have no desktop.....

Aslong as you need your MG42's back on the hill, suppressing the inf (might get some kills too) you can sneak your mortars up the middle marsh and then you can get the nasty guys hiding in the corners with HE while your infantry attack the flanks. This worked for me and I got minimal casualties. The trick is to take the vickers out of the picture.

I never, abusloutely NEVER use them for transport, I learned early on about .50 and half tracks, not to mention what a HE round does to the squad inside. I basically send them up with inf to give them some HMG support while the MG42's are slugging their way up. Does anyone use them for transport?

Replace them? Are you kidding me? Any rumour about ANYTHING being replaced is just that. A rumour. Clothe the Soldier isn't even done and you think they'll start replacing that stuff? We'll have to wait until the US phases out their HMMWV's so we can buy them second hand.Originally posted by Michael Dorosh:So Shadow, when the hell are they replacing those things anyway? And good rumours out your way?
On a lighter note I finnally got CADPATs.

Ok Mr.Vetran Security Squads.Originally posted by IronChef4:Those, like myself, who try to avoid gamey-ness whenever possible should find the rarity feature to their liking.

Might have been brought up before, might be too late to add, but here is something i was thinking about.
Would it be possible to add a rarity factor for field modifications on vehicles?
ie: You purchase a Kubelwagon and there is X% that it will have a flexable MG on it. Or X% chance that the Panther you just got will have a top MG.
Lots of different field modifications were made to vehicles and i was just thinking of some way to add them without killing realisim too too much.

Um...the 75mm PaK is an AT gun....

there should be a movie file in your data folder, edit that.

Have you been in a cave on mars, with your eyes closed and your fingers in your ears?Originally posted by Fletch:except for a couple of minor interviews and a couple of miserly screenshots. D

Burning rivers?Originally posted by MikeyD:When I first got CMBO my very first map attempt was a great circular A-bomb crater a quarter mile wide, surrounded by burning rivers, city streets lined with nothing but building foundations. The scenario was a fight to recover the second A-Bomb from the wreckage of a B-29. In the intro I said the 'Nuclear Winter' snow that was falling tended to burn the soldiers' skin.
It was REALLY creepy!

I once had a green M3 HT shoot down an axis FB.Originally posted by 109 Gustav:Only when they're unbuttoned. Don't expect to shoot down any planes, but if you have enough of them, they can be effective in preventing strafing runs.

You lost to the AI with +50% forces? For shame!

I got it the day it came out. I don't care much for the "damaged" version, it looks like someone hit it with a can opener, but the normal version is great.Originally posted by Warmaker:With AnderwTF's Marder III/Wespe/PaK40 mod released along with Pawbroon's Archer it seems Saturnin's Marder II has been ignored.
It's a nice mod and the little extra touches like maps sitting around and all make it great.

And the Russain rail system had a wider track than the German rail system which messed everything up even more.If you needed to move anything very far, it had to go by rail. One of the major reasons the Germans lost.Michael[/QB]

Depends on the situation. They all have advatanges and disadvantages.
