  1. You’re not alone Rob. I too had an instant zooming-in problem right after scenario load. It didn’t happen too often and a reboot always fixed it for me. So I never did find the source of the problem. This hasn’t happen in a long time, over a year now. So come to think of it, I switched OS from Win 7 to 10. Have not seen this in 10 yet, only in 7.
    What are you running?

    Gotta say that I rented a theater so I could watch Buckaroo Banzai on the big screen.  First saw it in 1985 or 86, but only on little screen.  One of the best films ever (for a certain type of person).

    Hi MeatEtr, I am your opponent, I would suggest reaching out on the CM discord if you are having a technical problem. They are very responsive on there so it might be possible to fix the problem in time for us to get the games in.

    Hiya Grim, thanks for the heads up for discord. But I didnt see anything helpful over there. As of right now only 13 out of 54 players have scored any points. So apparently I'm or we are not alone. 😅

  4. Yeah only way to see who your playing is from the Slitherine site at the tourney section. Scroll down past the point rankings to the match-ups listed below it. Here's a link!

    This is a mirror tourney, so we all play from both sides, US and Soviet sides per round. So expect to see 2 battles listed per rd.

    Also the games listed under Progress++ should disappear from the list once you do your turn. For some reason mine are not and Im guessing others are having this problem as well. Its a beta tourney after all, still got some kinks to iron out! 😉

    Also make sure to leave Soviet side password blank. US sides are already blank, so this cant be changed.

  5. After all these years playing CM I've never seen this myself or even heard of this happening. It actually looks like the squad is panicked so therefore you gotta wait until they recover from their losses. But just now took a closer look at your pics and see they are Crack and have Ok status, so their good. Yeah as chuck mentioned, try buddy aiding the downed guys. Or dismount and re-crew it. Also maybe try driving away a bit.

    Thats a weird one! 🤔

  6. Bypassing is irrelevant, its a tactical puzzle he wants to solve without taking any losses. LOS blocked to the bottom floor rules out area targeting. It's a well documented and discussed engine/game LOS limitation.

    Small on-board mortars will suppress units inside. Just make sure the angle is correct so shells falling short dont land on your side of the hedge. Rushing a tank close to get LOS to bottom floor is risky. If you do this, just make sure you time it so your infantry are arriving at the hedge before or at same time. This is to draw fire/attention away from your tank.

    Also give your infantry an area target order when they do arrive at the hedge to start putting fire into the building immediately.

    Grrrr. I'm frustrated with nVidia's screen capture tool. I like how it works but it is so unreliable I'm officially going to look at BandiCam and InfranView.

    For the last few weeks it seems that every time I try to capture a screen it just doesn't work. I have found that any time there is a driver update or a Ge Force Experience update they just arbitrarily turn off my ability to screen capture until I install the update. No, just no, that's not how this should work. So, I'm firing the nVidia 's in game overlay and looking for something better.

    Im on Win10 and use PrtScn and then alt-tab and paste into windows Paint. For some reason the 1st attempt rarely works, but just do it again and it always works on the 2nd attempt.

  8. King of the hill... cut-throat, quick and nasty knife fight byte battles with Blue on Blue competition is looking for a few more players.
    People preferably need all the WWII games and modules, but we can be flexible. It's currently at Round 11 with 4 open slots to fill to play in this Rd. First come first serve! But anybody can sign up and get in line, 2 wins and you get to challenge the king for his throne. Losers get back in line!

    For details and to sign up head over to the Few Good Men website!

    Can you make it the throne? 🤺
