get 10.2 it was pretty common knowledge that OSX was still some what a beta in previous versions. I've been using 10.2 since it came out and the computer hasn't crashed once and I also heavily use graphic apps and multitask only program that crashes for me is AIM

I like the tiger stripe look to it good work

This is why I buy pzIVs sure they dont have the angled front 80mm mantle but they have a turret and are pretty mobile with the same 75mm gun I might add, Stugs are only good in 1 on 1 head to head engagements I like flanking my enemy.Originally posted by ParaBellum:In a recent PBEM (russian assault, winter '42) a platoon of my T34s ran into three StuGs.
The T34s advanced cautiosly and once they sighted the STuGs the withdrew out of LOS immediatly.
I then used a 82mm FO to place a smoke barrage and raced the T34 platoon forward to flank the StuGs. An infantry platoon accompanied them and where ordered to move to a patch of woods on the far right flank.
The T34s charged across an open field, protected by the smoke barrage and managed to arrive in their new positions, covered by some woods. One of the StuGs bogged down when it was trying to engage the T34s (snowy ground...
) and got hit by the T34s in the flank. I advanced one T34 and used the two others in overwatch position.The infantry platoon was in place and broke out of the trees, to assault the remaining two StuGs, the three T34s advanced, attacking the withdrawing StuGs from two sides.
Go another StuG and was in a good position to destroy the last one when my opponent surrendered.
Your T34s are highly mobile, even in difficult terrain. They have turrets which the StuGs don't have, use that advantage. Coordinate the attack with infantry and arty (smoke).
If it's done correctly (and you have at least a bit of luck) the StuGs still are a serious threat but can be overcome with proper tactics.

me too, I wouldn't mind trying to by pass stalingrad or trying the "what if's" at the operational or strategic level then going into fight the actuall battles.

manchildstein thanks for that link, that was one of the most interesting and informative sights I've been to and gave me a lot of insite into the swastika. It's a shame the average person sees it only for the evil hitler gave it

ok heres my view on this topic. First you're choosing to play a QB with armor and chooing not to ask the other player to not get uber amounts of stugs, it's your own problem they want to win obviously so you should find a way to win other than trying to go head to head against the german tanks(just like in CMBO you never go head to head with the german guns). So either do something about it before the game or deal with it. War is unfair and when you're competing you're going to pull out all the stops to win. From what I see BTS is learning a lot about how to make the players play the game their way so hopefully in the future you can pick the "divisional" option instead of playing the standard QB

not if theres an 88 aroundOriginally posted by Michlos:The germans will tremble in fear when I drive these puppies down the road
Would love to host them when they are done MrNoobie.

First I'd like to say this would deffinately help the CM community. I'v never liked the senerio depot as my first experiance with fan based file archives was myth2. http://www.mythmaps.com/ is a very good example of a solid file site. Senerio depot has a poor search system and lots of broken links to files. To do this type of thing you got to have access to a lot of server space and a helluva lot of bandwidth. I'd suggest emailing the creaters of the page I gave you and get some info from them.

Personally I like the iron cross better than the swastika

You have to remeber that the panther was designed for mass production the major problem was that german industry hadn't geared up for war as quickly as their allied opponents. And when they started too they were getting bombed round the clock. The german tank designers didn't just disregard the advantages mass production gives.

I'd personally like to see a vietnam version of CM. I'd love to listen to ride of the valkyries while attacking the NVA with my huey's
. I actually made a vietnam total conversion for myth2. -
Generalizing americans as fat dumb rich people like so many europeans do really pisses me off. For one the US has litterally thousands of different cultures. We pretty much have no homogenity. We have kids fighting out a life on the streets we have farmers we have middle class we have high class. When you look at a 4year univeristy you're going to see more diversity in cultures and life styles then any other country. Just because you saw some idiot on TV doesn't mean the majority of americans are dumb lazy white and middle class.

ok I get it more now thank you
-
what exactly am I seeing here in this information besides rounds per minute? And what is a prepared and unprepared crew? Sorry the grammer is very hard to interprate but I am still interested in the information.

ahh thanks I knew someone would know

what is that song I have forgetten the name of it.
-
Bruno I'm sorry but if you think the NVA don't deserve to be called honorable fighters then neither do the US soldiers. We've done just as bad things throughout history. I say learn from those mistakes and try not to commit those terribles acts. And give honor to those who fight bravely for what they believe in.

muhaha…...everyone is gunna hate me for this...but PBEM games are gamey! TCP IP is more realistic cause you dont have that much time to think about orders in real warfare:P

I experianced this a lot in the game I played previously and it seems to me to really be dependant on who you are playing with. If I got the chance to go out with friends without notice but had a preschedualed tourney for the game I would ditch it and go with my friends. I would play consistantly for months and then disappear. How others you play with/against react is what you need to think about. For me it didn't matter, since it was just a game. How you feel about the game and people you play with should be the judge of wether or not you join tournies/ladders etc.

I was messing around with the flak trucks in a QB vs the comp and my god are these things smart! I had one 37mm flak truck take out both of the sherman76s I was fighting. my panthers did nothing. I watched these guys reverse uphills and let off a burst into the rear of the shermans and take them out, then drive forward back into cover…without orders. They used this tactic about 10-15 times in the battle and took out the DaimlerACs and a lot of infantry. It doesn't even seem possible but dang now I know why they are gamey

GI Combat's graphics look kind of unclean and blurry, I like the solid and clear graphics in the CMBB screenshots a lot more.
