  1. bassicly wait for your reinforcements before trying anything. Then get all 6 shermans to crest the little hill in the los of the at bunker. u will get first shot and all 6 shermans fire ure almost sure to cause a knock out or crew casuallty. then roll em' down the lane with engineers in front of them scanning for mines. then push ALL ure infantry into the woods and out the other side the enemy tank shouldn't cause much bother.
  2. I assume ure talking about some kind of normandy beach scenario if so where can i get a piece of it!!!??/ :confused:
  3. oh yeh im tryin to get a picture of the gun on this page (can't work this freakin digital thingy) :mad:
  4. regarding my questions 1.it looks loke its sitting to low to be a AAA gun or a flak one. but I have just now seen a picture of a german infantryman standing about 20 meters from a gun-on the front line-which looks remarkably similar but the picture is slightly blurred so I can't be sure if it's at or not. if it could be used in any role including indirect fire. Does this mean it could take both fixed and bagged amunnition? 2.is the classification for a gun that it takes fixed ammunition or that it fires in a flatish trajectory and only when it has direct los to the target. 3.I never said the sexton and the hummel had mg mountings. And I can understand the armor on them all. I can also understand the 50 on the sexton for use against infantry if it was right near the front line (was it really close enough to encounter enemy squads) last thing PLEASE if you know of any books or sites about artillery/mortars please tell me!
  5. My opinion is that it really just depends on which areas of the game you like. if you like artillery go with brittish they get it a bit cheaper and i think its a bit more accurate (no idea how) but the americans have superior infantry. in terms of tanks its pretty even the americans have the very well equiped sherman the brittish the tasty 95mm churchill. However I prefer playing as the germans BY FAR the best infantry and armour (funny that, seeing as I'm english myself and I'm actually required to hate everyone whose not brittish)
  6. I have a problem. I bought a model of an 88 mm artillery piece from a magazine. Nwow i thought by artillery they meant indirect fire from behind lines using a spotter type artillery. Untill a friend pointed out artillery could be anything from an anti-tank to what I was actually talking about. Now the gun is identical to the pak 88mm in c-mission. Except it is minus the face shield. that is what made me think it was indirect fire, as without a face shield even enemy rifle fire would cause the cre to abandon their gun. so what is it? Another question. In a book I saw a picture of a stug 3 it said " the stug 3 assualt gun was a popular infantry support self propelled gun" I was wondering does this make all AFV's self propelled guns? or what please tell. And my final question. why does the m7 priest have a 50. cal (and why is it armoured) mounted on it if it was meant to be in the indirect fire role up to 1 mile behind the front. Likewise for the brittish sexton and the german hummel These may seem like dumb questions but I keep getting friggin' contradictory information from books. come to think of it anybody no of any good books about mortars
  7. look, as far as i know i am running it off my computer i mean i did the full install, does it count as running it off the cd if you leave the cd in it's drive? arrrrgg it's driven' me up the wall here!
  8. accordin' to yonder manual when u save in the game (e.g a battle) then the save should appear at the top of the list of scenarios, guess what, it doesn't. i was in some scenario when 2 panthers ragg'd it over the hill i had 4 shermans targeting them so i went "mmmmm i think i need to save" i did this and started the turn the 2 pnthers UTTERLY RAPED me killin all 4 tanks and about 14 infantry so i thinks time to reload. i go back to the scenarios screen but there's no save there. i've tried many times since and it still dont work any suggestions???
  9. that cat i shot sure forgot to use tactics it forgot to cover its right flank upper head. cos thats why my shot came from upper house window in the head,with a 22. bye bye kitty, ure my pikachu
  10. the only way u can bend a language and make it sound great is buy saying IPITYYTHEFOO yuk yuk. ure my pikachu :cool:
  11. i think ure a complete bastard for killin a defenseless mouse how about if it was 200 meters tall and stepping on u???? i'd like u to know a cat got in to my back garden 4 nights ago and kiled my bunny...so i shot it in the head and killed IT hahahahahah its probably already at the tip. but now i'm probably gonna be bombarded with emails telling me i'm a monster. but it's strangely ok to crush mice (defenseless mice) into the ground i hate dogs to
  12. i know its derived from a european basis and i'm not trying to deny that in fact i'm rather proud of it GERMANS ROCK i'm not actually a german but i respect em' i have NEVER met an impolite german and if my language is half from theirs i aint complaining :cool: p.s actually it was derived from a cross beetween ancient english tounge and german when ceaser left he actually transported german tribes over here for a reason which is still not known (but is believed he wanted to civilise the unruly brits) :eek:
  13. im getting tvery tired off cheeky yanks calling us poms or limey's yes i just called them yanks but thats the first time i've done it in years it seems like it's okay for the YANKS to call us anything they like and when we get pissed off no-one understands. oh determinant i wouldn't be too afraid of modern american squads the tend to either turn their best weaponry on themselves or shoot at the sky like it just smaked em' inna gob ( any europeans agree) then drop me a line
  14. hey soz rog's, I'm not 'avin a go at the americans ure havin' a got at ME, and don't insult me u festering little prick. or i'll (useing ure own words) whup ure ass! like i say it should be us tellin' u how to pronounce words seeing as its our language <BLOCKQUOTE>quote:</font><HR> <HR></BLOCKQUOTE>I pity the fool who thinks he can take another man's native tounge and bend it <BLOCKQUOTE>quote:</font><HR> <HR></BLOCKQUOTE>-mr t [ 05-07-2001: Message edited by: Alex heritage ] :cool: [ 05-09-2001: Message edited by: Alex heritage ]
  15. oh yeah and don't get sorry about ordering the game believe me u WILL get better at it. it takes time but u will
  16. hey mate dont stress i had trouble too the problem with ure spotters is either because they can't see the target or its a glitch. Oh and are we talkin on map or off map mortars here? i agree with ure point on flamers look at my thread about them simply called flamethrowers to get some hints as too how too use em
  17. I'd just like to ask why hasn't anyone mentioned the brittish sas. in all these action films we see the all action hero who was in the navy seals or the green berets or the delta force there never in the sas. the sas we're the first real special forces but the american books i've read all seem to put american s.forces far above ours. However i'm not just being over-patriotc it is my strong opinion that the russian spetsnaz are the strongest force in the world...
  18. hey im sorry i didnt know it was american army slang that makes it okay i thought it was something just made up by gamers. oh stacheldraht when did it become YOUR language, i believe the english language was first derived in england or am i mistaken?? I hardly think a nation with only 300 hundred years actual history behind it can call it "their" language
  19. i think everyone better stop answering this thread. Too many people have told me the flamers useless and i dont like gamey tactics. when i get the full game I just wont use flamers. (to anyone in England.. how long did ure game take to arrive I've been waiting a week and a half now and i'm fairly pissed off) :mad:
  20. imagine if a train came along mate... :cool:
  21. Hey man i totally sympathise with ure situation. I think its because there are more americans playing the game. I totally agree with ure point of view. if mr syker tourns up he'll just completely slag off the brittish go to best allied/axis infantry killing vehicle thread to see what I said to him.. :mad:
  22. hey its been more than a week now where the hell is it as yet still no order confirmation
  23. I'm am a member of 2' para in england and i can tell u this, the game is pretty realistic in terms of strategy. my main qualm is the fire support. If a 81mm mortar shell lands within a 15 meter radius of a man standing up he is almost CERTAINLY dead. if ure lying face down anything inside 7 meters will STILL kill you, never mind HEAVY artillery. the ONLY effetive defense is a foxhole or better still a building. the buildings walls will protect u from the shrapnel of shells outside, and if the building is being shelled the enemy has to work through the roof and all the floors below.
  24. when about will my game arrive. I orderd 4 days ago and i haven't even recieved the order confirmation yet. i live in england will this make a BIG difference
  25. it stands to reason use heavier artillery to destroy big houses with men in, wooden pillboxes and sometimes well dug in infantry genrally big targets that dont move much. use off the map mortars to quickly bring fire down on advancing infantry (or retreatin)and quickly bring in smoke p.s i'm a memeber of the english royal artillery PLEASE stop calling it arty it just sounds to stupid, if u must shorten it call it "Fire"
