Any idea what they ment by "the spoils of victory"?
The first rule of the spoils of victory is never mention the spoils of victory.

Wow. Demo charges can take out hedgehogs as "collateral damage"! Just been to try it for myself, and can confirm that a "Blast" order into an AS of hedgehogs where there's nothing else to destroy doesn't do anything (the engineers "Hide" for the 15s as usual, then just get up and run to the waypoint without detonating or expending their pack). But if there's something to Blast adjacent to the jacks, the jacks get blown away too. It appears that an adjacent half-AS of Blastable thing must be blown up. If the hedgehogs are the other side of a hedge, they aren't damaged, because there's a half-AS of empty space between the blown hedge (which runs down the middle of its AS) and the obstacles, but if the hedgehogs are next to the end of a full AS of hedge, and you blast that end piece, they are affected.
This is groundbreaking news. Well, at least interesting. Changes the use of AT obstacles quite a lot.
Hasn't it always been that way? I recall hedgehogs being insusceptible to "blast" in one of those C&F missions waaaaay back. Did that change with an intervening patch?

That worked!

Delete - figured it out.

Given command delay, I think that's well outside the scope of CM battles - it's the kind of information that would be included in
briefing.

What I can say is we're focusing this Upgrade on long standing requests. I can think of one that was first suggested sometime around 1998.

Full battle replay?

Same problem - couldn't get the decompiler thing to work or even install - if someone would upload the campaign missions to some source, it would be greatly appreciated.

I get ya, bro, but, how much have you enjoyed Black Sea? Do you foresee it being a game that can hold your interest for a lonnnnnggg time? These releases are worth it man.

Thank you, all who served.

BFC snuck out the building weeks ago leaving us with this forum. No more games.

Yeah, all good stuff. I'd start by reading the manual section concerning control and playing around with the game while doing so. The tutorial really is excellent.

Glad he's still on this side of the grass.

hmmmm.....

AHHH... the wire. That's what made it easier along the left side. Knew there was something.

Okay, YEAH, now I don't know how all the patches have affected it since release, but when I played it after about the umpteenth save (getting slaughtered trying to go to the right, then center, it seems ##################################

There was a little village on the left flank not far from the last hedgerow. It seems like for some reason, once you cleared that village, there may have been some defilade that allows you to get to the ridge. After that, it seems like it wasn't too difficult to mop up the rest of the ridge going bunker to bunker.
Sorry that's so vague, but it's been a long time since I fooled with it.
-
Is this the one with the ridge at the end of the map? I haven't played it since the release and I'm trying to remember which mission this is.

I personally am really hoping they can improve fog. It's pretty bad as it stands. The extreme setting isn't even visually as thick as CMX1's light setting.
Mord.
Ditto. The only thing with the CMx2 graphics that I'm disappointed in.
-
I have had that problem too, only opening a specific scenario (into the Breach) and only two buildings. It has not shown up again in any other scenario.
Same here. Just got to this scenario last night.
-
Definitely not experiencing the same success vs ai in scenarios as I had in all previous titles. While the inclusion of triggers surely have added to the challenge, I'm pretty sure it's my lack of ability to appreciate and exploit the relative capabilities of the weaponry. It is all very deadly.

Hi for CMBS they have broken files to smaller size, maybe raise a ticket and ask if they can do that for you? I agree large file sizes and no resume is a killer if you have 10gb limit per month.
I bet they would. BFC has been really, really accommodating to try to make things work for the purchaser.
-
It seemed to work so much better in CMx1 ....
Uhhhhmmm.... not really; perhaps you're forgetting some of the flamethrower / MG jeep / roadblock OOBs spit out back then?

Where's the CMBorg?

Great! Loved the CMSF series.
