Aw man, don't get me started on Schrodinger's cat... Bloody thing keeps spraying on my front deck, and Schrodinger is in denial cos he keeps telling me its a female so doesn't spray. Well, I tell ya, I have photos now!!

have zipped the CMFI campaign and scenario folders, so waiting on nightop if ok to upload to him. he should already have the CMSF folders.

Where did those mods come from? CMSF?

"dessert" as in ice cream or cakes on the trolley?? (Confused as to what are the imported mod(s) we're supposed to be looking at.)

NO doubt this will encourage more female CM2 players in addition to some of the women we already have (at least they behave like women - not that there is anything wrong with that).

Perhaps the point is that if Ukr gets increasingly better equipped and experienced, then the Russians have to commit more and more force. As we have seen with the US, even superpowers have limits as they have other responsibilities eg: in Russia's case, keeping enuff force in reserve to counter possible Chinese attacks or US attacks, or problems in Georgia, Ussetia, or... etc etc. Eventually Ukr could be another Afghanistan in terms of it being a sinkhole of assets and resources.

BTW: Do you get any replacement drones? I lost the one we got in Mission #1 or #2, and haven't received another.

Not sure of Russian rank. I see two bars so maybe "Junior Sarge". He is a Leader and it says "Denied" on all arty. He does not have a laser designator or binoculars, only night vision.

I think people are just joking a bit with you, Oleksandr.

Ok, two files uploaded: CMSF Scenarios and CMSF Campaigns. I hope everyone gets access and enjoys em. I found most of them to be good. However, the later ones are generally the best as designers had years of practice by then. A big thank you to nightops for setting all this up.

Unless all other tanks burned as readily, that does make it sound like the Sherman was a Ronson(?)

Which of your scenarios is the most polished?

Agreed. Very yummy...

I thought all Brit upper class clubs were gay(?!) Didn't the Brits invent cross-dressing - or at least exhibit a penchant for men wearing women's clothes?

Yes, I like it too. Will use if available.

This is CMBS forum. It was a one-man (Leader) FO. IIRC so long as the FO is the leader he should be able to spot. IIRC in CM2 one does NOT need a radio to spot for arty.

Very useful tactical info. Thanks...

The odd thing is that I have now many times seen a BMP sit for a while, then spot a tank at 1000m+ apparently staring right back at the BMP. But the BMP spots first and fires first using its 30mm to seriously degrade the tank which backs away. Question is why does the tank not spot first? Could the AI routine be for the tank to use "Armor covered arc", and IFV is not classified as "Armor".

Buddy aid will reduce the final result KIA to WIA a bit. You lose fewer points for WIA than KIA IIRC.

Done and done... I gained 40-50 pounds over the years and maybe I don't run so FAST, but I can still move QUICK.

Just waiting for nightops or someone to figure out a simple method of for me to upload the zipped files where others can access em.

Yeah, I just completed Mission #3 in new Russian Campaign from Battle Pack #1. So... which one of your numerous new scenarios you want me to look at first?

Not sure about speed. But, have wondered if SLOW move tires people just bit too quickly considering these are young guys in the peak of fitness.

BTW: Another issue re FO's. I had a couple FO leaders KIA/WIA in a previous mission. In Mission #4 I get one FO who happens to be a Leader. I thought that as a Leader this FO would be ok. But, this FO Leader CANNOT spot for arty. Any ideas...?

Finished Mission #3. Got a Draw even tho' only suffered 4 tank and 4 IFV losses and 21 inf WIA or KIA vs Ukrainian 113 men KIA/WIA, 17 tanks and 10 IFV's. Looks like I didn't inflict enuff damage on the Ukrainians and took too many losses (including the Tank Co CO's T-90). Exited all other T-90's at SW Exit. Very good scenario. Large map, with a nice mix of about a company of armor and two companies of BMP mounted inf and 120mm, 150mm and 220mm arty. My plan was to pick one of the exits and focus attacks on that flank. Seemed to work aside from leaving enemy mostly intact on the other flank which cost points. Had plenty of arty left, so I could have used more. However, ammo resupply is sketchy and I need to ensure I have some left for the next mission. Still impressed at how the BMP's are able to easily spot enemy armor first at 1000m+ AND are willing to stand and fight vs tanks with their 30mm (and win!) while my tanks immediately freak out with smoke and retreat when lased. It's almost as if knowing that you are being lased is worse than simply standing and immediately firing.
