Have there been any TO&E posted for Fire and Rubble ala the one on the base games store page?

http://www.baesystems.se/hagglunds/brochure/cv9035markiii.pdf Thats a Mark III, not sure if it's eqvivalent to the NL version in game, but that info broschure put ammo as 2x35 ready rounds plus typical stowage as 140 rounds.

I've seen that one of the scenarios, at least, from the demo is available for the full game as a dl but I've had no luck in trying to import the demo scenario files with copy and past. They show up in the mission editor, but I've not managed to resave them to get them to work that way either. It's the DEMO Training Mission.btt that I'd like to run in the full game as I found it a fun little mission to learn to play in real time with. And I prefer platoon or company seize scenarios overall. Anyone know what I'm doing wrong here?

Uh oh, the SF2 AI have become self-teaching, SKYNET protocol initiated....time to head for the bunker!

Oh goody, these threads are almost better than playing the game itself.

This, like +100

I'd cast my vote for Early war too. Always found that period more interesting than the late war scenario.

That twitching mortarman made me think of this:

Nope And you can almost always use this: The Spanish Inquisition

Looks a bit like Artkin have been shocked by a force of 2.....

I can only speak from training environments with full caliber ammo for the 84 mm Carl Gustaf.But considering I got blood taste in my mouth and clear pressure change feel all over the body, particularly the torso, when leading the squad and being 5-10m to the side of the damn thing (much less uncomfortable to actually fire it yourself) wearing double hearing protection I can only imagine the "discomfort" of being in close vicinity of a tank 120 mm gun fired in an urban setting.

You should travel without internet access more often then...

"Two gold brown eyes and the smile you gave me....." Will probably have to be Swedish to understand the giggle in that song phrase regarding to a hyena.

@MOS:96B2P Holy crap. That's a lot of effort you put in to put that list together. As an owner of both SF(full bundle) and BS even I learned a lot from it. Give this man a medal!... or at the least a cold beer

How's the weather in St. Petersburg today?

I'm probably not the only one that wished CMFB had been a module to CMBN rather than a stand-alone in this regard.

CMBN+modules. Its the most fleshed out game of the CM2 family.

Thanks a lot for this tip. Been looking for something like this with little success myself. Found it and several other very interesting reads on the same site.

That is what I ask myself too. But I'm guessing a slightly higher degree of protection is prefered over the amphibious ability. Western armies tend to prioritize their personnel's survival. I saw something somewhere about the Polish Rosomak with a scaled down protection level, but with amphibious ability, being shelved after their Iraq experience.

The most perplexing thing with the Strykers for me, given one of their raison d'etre ( mobility), is the lack of true amphibious ability.

Something for @c3k to put on the testing list maybe?

Thanks guys, much appreciated. Now I'm just going to figure out how to install mods again. IIRC there was a mod manager for CM SF. Does that work for CMBS too?

Looks neat! Is the mod available somewhere?

Along with the SF2 news, this item really makes me happy.
