  1. Maybe I was crazy at the time but, I remember seeing a mod that had infatry squad leaders cussing at their squads etc. Things like, "get off your a@@!" Little ditties of that nature. (remember your DI?) anyway does anyone know where to find this mod? I've searched all over cant find it. Thanks.
  2. Hmmm... I knew shotguns were illegal, but not the flame throwers. Thanks. (Personally though I would not blame anyone for using anything that would keep them alive. ------------------
  3. The reason the military doesn't use Hydra Shock bullets is because they are against the Hague and Geneva Conventions. (Which if memory serves, the US military abides by but did not sign.) It is very similar to a hollow point just alittle more powerful and alittle different. The Hydra Shock is a really mean bullet when it hits tissue fibers. Not quite as tidy as Ball ammunition. Basically war is still, "a gentlemen's" argument, if you will. It's ok to use flame warfare but not expanding ammunition. Actually if you're interested, many people think using a M2 (.50 cal MG) against personnel is a crime since the 12.7x99 BMG round started life as an anti-tank round during WW I. Sorry, got alittle off track. That is why the military doesn't use expanding ammunition, it against the Geneva and Hague Geneva Conventions. whew, Leo
  4. Ok, I understand that I am on the defensive which would explaine that I am not given an opportunity to counter attack. However, wouldn't it be much wiser to have as forward a position as possible to aid in the longevity of a given objective? Whouldn't that make the most sence, even to the highest of the brass? Ah well, I guess nothing is perfect. This truely is the greatest stratagy game ever! And for all my comments I love the operations.
  5. You know I'm confused with Operations. For example right now I'm on battle 6 of the Carentan Op playing as the Germans. Basically, in every battle I run my infantry units forward of the dictated FEBA and ambush the advancing allies. After a successful defense I have my more mobile units. (Armor, fresh Infantry, etc. commit to a flanking maneuver on the bloodied Americans.) Works wonderfully! Given that I cannot see the kill/loss ratios a conservative estimation might be that of 5:1. It also would appear that the allies have run almost out of armor, leadership, and arty spotters. So, my question is this even though I make deep penetrations on the allies front I continue to have my front at the same darn spot. (Give or take 20 meters.) Am I being held back because of strategic purposes or am I missing what my mission is? Why can't I throw the allies back into the sea? <g> thanks in advance
