Can you point out a page or a quote in the book that says that most infantry casualties were caused by RPG´s?
No quote or page - just far too many references to casualties caused by RPGs.

Personally RPGs are my worst nightmare. Even the uncons are well loaded with them and they are deadly. You look like you are getting fire superiority, your men are pouring it on and then one lone guy smacks one into your building and the best you can hope for is light casualties and being suppressed for a while. The US units don't really have anything as effective. The Marine SMAW is close but not as prolific or quite the punch.
Couldn't agree more. RPGs are the force multiplier.
I'm currently reading 'Ripcord - Screaming Eagles under siege, Vietnam 1970' and in most (if not all) US infantry encounters with regular NVA units, RPGs appear responsible for most of the casualties. Volley fire was also regularly used. Try to imagine the effect of 10 or more RPGs all fired off 'en-masse' at a static hilltop US position. Talk about pocket artillery - how about a portable GRAD jungle strike?

Great stuff Bill - excellent pictures and explanations for your moves. Kudos.

Are you from dutch origin, Fat Dave? Despite your Scottisch outfit.
Ha! Yes I am Aragorn, and of course, you are correct, my spelling was harstikke foute. I spelt it like it sounded (it's been a few years now) - but slacht will definitely be the operative word for this battle
Looking forward to the contact front! moment.

Nice screens and descriptions Baneman. Wordt en leuke slagpartij!

Ha! I like this story Altipueri. All elaboration appreciated.

Sounds like you're having a tough time of it Steiner14.
Sorry to hear it.
I have a joke for you though...
Why wasn't Jesus born in Australia?
Because they couldn't find 3 wise men and a Virgin.
Seriously, I don't think the infantry is that broken, but that's just my opinion

Steel box arrived - without import duty in Holland

I have just re-re-played Mike's 'Outmanouvered' - this is a beauty of a scenario. Great open map, well placed buildings and lots of long range fire-power. CMSF is an absolute gem and can only get better

yes, just go to the Battlefront site directly and navigate to the downloads section. You will find the 1.31 patch here. Good luck
-
Hi Dog,
Once you have installed all the modules, go to the Battlefront website and dowload the 1.31 patch.
This will bring you up to date.
You will be prompted to choose which modules you wish to update - select them all

Please make more -
Thanks for that Jason
Good find. -
Link please FragerZ
Cheers

Hi Dimitri,
I still haven't forgotten our Shock Force PBEM were you killed my adidas tracksuit wearing irregulars to a man
Hope you got what you were looking for - although I did have a chuckle with some of the replies
Hope all well

I understood what you meant
I too would like a save possibility with TCP/IP, but this isn't happening for CM:BN -
Nope, sorry Berto. It's a shame as CM1 had this working so well.
