Luftwaffe

Hello, I was just wondering if a rarity factor for troops would be included in CMBB? For instance, healthy German troops/veterans would be very rare in late 44'. While Russian partisans will be cheap and plentiful. Also, maybe some way to make Russians less "skilled/expirienced" as Germans. This way a battle with 3 German platoons facing 6 Russian platoons would be fairly even. I know Germans were greatly outnumbered... just wondering if it will be included in CMBB. I'm pretty sure how the rarity factor works with vehicles but I would love to see it with troops. Playing as the Germans you will have to "think" like a german (43' on), always short on men etc etc. This might also make the game more even. We all have faced multiple Fallshirmjager platoons and know what its like What do you folks think?

I think Tom's has some good italian battles...

I'm also 18, I guess that since the younger generation (not all of us as we can see) need either a big hollywood movie or video game to get them interested in something I can see why there are more "elders" in here. For all of us 20 and under it's gonna be us preserveing history 20 years from now...

Walker, I said nothing about playing inferior people... but if you are going to play someone and you are not too sure your going to win... then don't go around yelling your going to cream them.

Ooooooh, junior memeber with 21 posts... excuse me if i don't spend my WHOLE life posting on this forum. The comment I made about shutting your mouth, meant not to call out somebody for a battle unless you are sure you can win... but obviously you didn't get that part... it figures.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA! When you DO get a victory let me know... by then hopefully we will be playing CM 6 or 7... until then keep that mouth of yours shut until you can back it.

Ummmm, no. I really respect Italians in WW2, troop wise and vehicle wise. Their ligt vehicles along with their anti tank rifles will be a formidable force

I sure hope so... The vehicle list is FAT, so these should be in there somewhere.

I don't know if these will be included in CMBB but I am pretty sure the Italians used some Semoventes and Autoblindas on the Easten front. Any insights?

Has anyone ver heard of that guy Generale_Pasquini, I heard he's really good too...

What you gus are saying make NO SENSE. NO WE ARE NOT GERMAN GUNNERS!!! But yes, we have the comfort of sitting by a warm computer, using MOUSE aim, external view, and target info... I think that would beat out the most "veteran" tanker...

I also bought Panzer Elite and was surprised at how good this game is. Huge MAPS! and gun, inf and arty support. Plus with all the mods (it is like CM, very customizable) it offer tons of tanks and all scenarios. It is true however how hard it is to hit an actual target. I know I'm not a german gunner, but even with wind resistance and all the other realistic shell affects turned off it is still very hard espcially 500m+... In CM, most of the tank fighting is done on "smooth" grass ground or pavement... while in real life tanks almost always stopped to target something I think CM is pretty much on the mark with moving tanks...

18... god never realized so mnay "old" people played this game I thought the average gae was like 18-19... its like 40!

its all about the hummel... inf killer!

Motorcycles and bikes where used very often on the eastern frot but i dont think they'll be in CM2, they should though.
