  1. May I recommend 'Fags & Coffee' a sumptious 8% smoked coffee stout from Three Blind Mice Brewery.
  2. I don't think the game has working streetlamps represented :-) Put it down to confusion in the pitch black a la Operation Totalize https://books.google.co.uk/books?id=WfE7AwAAQBAJ&pg=PT95&lpg=PT95&dq=Operation+Totalize+night+battle+tank&source=bl&ots=O71OeXG49y&sig=hG5YccQGFKImIlU0oa2DnctcQhw&hl=en&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwidyNq8kKvRAhXJzRoKHeXrDx04ChDoAQhMMAw#v=onepage&q=Operation Totalize night battle tank&f=false
  3. Though German Armour only force selection was very infantry heavy
  4. True dat Louis Thomas McFadden was a Republican member of the House of Representatives from Pennsylvania who served from 1915 to 1935. He was a far-right populist who is often remembered for two things: Creating the McFadden Act, which limited federal branch banks to the city in which the main branch operates. Being a bat**** crazy anti-Semite who pushed every conspiracy theory he could get his hands on, especially when it had to do with the International Jewish Conspiracy. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Louis_Thomas_McFadden
  5. Why am I not surprised... Globalresearch Globalresearch is an anti-"Western" website that can't distinguish between serious analysis and discreditable junk — and so publishes both. It's basically the moonbat equivalent to Infowars or WND. While some of GlobalResearch's articles discuss legitimate humanitarian concerns, its view of science, economics, and geopolitics is conspiracist — if something goes wrong, the Jews / West didit! The site has long been a crank magnet: If you disagree with "Western" sources on 9/11, or HAARP, or vaccines, or H1N1, or climate change, or anything published by the "mainstream" media, then GlobalResearch is guaranteed to have a page you will love. The website (under the domain names globalresearch.ca(link), .org(link), and .com(link)) is run by the Montreal-based non-profit The Centre for Research on Globalisation (CRG) founded by Michel Chossudovsky, a former professor of economics at the University of Ottawa, Canada. Whenever someone makes a remarkable claim and cites GlobalResearch, they are almost certainly wrong. http://rationalwiki.org/wiki/Globalresearch
  6. Did you install the updater on a fully up-to-date 3.12 version of the game? or an earlier 2.00 version?
  7. http://www.bbc.co.uk/mediacentre/proginfo/2016/50/time-commanders http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b084zh3v Shame they aren't using CM for battling it out some WW2 battles
  8. Yeah! CMBN all working now, Have a peaceful stress free crimbo. Edit: Spoke to soon - Sucessfully activated 4.0 but It's stripped out the Battle Pack scenarios (they are there but greyed out)... And looking at the Battle Pack installer it was built in with 3.12 patch. So wary of reinstalling it on top of 4.0. CMBN MacOS 3.12 Battle Pack Installer.pkg Any suggestions to a way forward?
  9. 'Dr.' Masaru Emoto debunked http://rationalwiki.org/wiki/Masaru_Emoto http://www.csicop.org/specialarticles/show/a_grain_of_truth_recreating_dr._emotos_rice_experiment
  10. 4 Upgrade & activation for mac worked fine for CMFB - but the 4 upgrade activation on CMBN mac fails (even offline activation fails) So hopefully the help desk can get it sorted.
  11. Phew! thankfully we somehow still won the war in this interactive tale... http://www.bbc.co.uk/guides/z3b77hv
  12. IIRC The mortar should be able to fire when aboard the HT and also able to be dismountable and deployable away from the vehicle.
  13. When I played - I drove the PSW away with mortar fire, and set-up a mortar strike on the Kitty to get it to button up just prior to Shermans arriving and getting into position. A long range flank shot or three from an unbuttoned 76(?) Sherman (to aid spotting) will kill it swiftly. After that the fun begins! :-)
  14. According to this in WW1 a deal for British Rubber for German Binoculars was stuck worthy of Catch 22! http://greatwarproject.org/2015/07/20/a-clear-case-of-trading-with-the-enemy/ on topic - US Platoon leader D-Day Dress inc binoculars
  15. Surely Alfred, Lord Tennyson 19th Century, if not before... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/In_Memoriam_A.H.H.#Nature.2C_red_in_tooth_and_claw
  16. Mum's Hungarian relatives served as Anti Aircraft crew for Axis in WW2, and steppdad served in RAF...
  17. Did The Torygraph mention anything about the 'DEATH trap' Ajax mini-tanks coming into service? http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-3892754/Army-s-new-3-5bn-mini-tanks-DEATH-traps-useful-against-incompetent-enemies-hit-heavy-artillery.html
  18. c3k So you cracked the code! https://www.theguardian.com/world/shortcuts/2012/nov/23/crack-pigeon-second-world-war-code "AOAKN HVPKD FNFJW. Confused? You're in good company. These inscrutable letters mark the start of a 143-character coded message sent during the second world war, and found strapped to the leg of a dead pigeon down a chimney in Surrey earlier this month. The UK's chief codebreakers – Government Communications Headquarters (GCHQ) – were asked if they could decode the message. But though it is thought to have been sent from occupied France during the D-day landings, so far none of the country's best number-crunchers have been able to fathom what it actually says." The aforementioned Pigeon (RIP)
  19. Immobilisations happen even on the best of roads...
  20. M8 as mentioned above needs fixing in a patch - but Priest is readilly available from July – Sept in Amour / Single Vehicles force selection.
  21. In the PDF (Draft Non-Paper/ v14) you linked to the author was indicated to be Soros's wife, 'Tamiko Bolton' - supposedly to give it a tinge of 'authenticity' cos not much else does considering its unknown but dodgy provenance (any other supporting and corroboratiing documents obtained in the hacking heist?) With a little jiggery-pokery it can be made to appear authored from anyone on creation of a PDF or subsequently - suggest you download the PDF I linked to (Draft Non-Paper/ v13) and check who authored it ;-) Because a highly dubious digital file ends up written about by a self-published conspiracy theorist, is repeated by a half-baked conspiracy site and enthusiastically thrust into this thread as a source by another barely restrained conspiracy theorist - doesn't lend much credence to it as a source of truth.
  22. Yes truly Kettlerian - because Engdahl has wriiten a book doesn't make what he writes true esp. with the proliferation of self-published authors, it makes anything possible. and the relatively recent PDF supposedly created by Soros's wife is in alll likelihood fake as the file's author can be easilly added in any name by using Adobe Acrobat Pro / properties or when the it was exported from MS Windows > https://cl.ly/1w171u462I1H/Soros_Ukraine_March_non-paper _2015_v13.pdf "Engdahl published his artice in the Executive Intelligence Review, the comically misnamed journal of arch crackpot Lyndon LaRouhe. LaRouche soon adopted Soros as his favourite new evil mastermind. https://books.google.co.uk/books?id=qQoXpyR3MXIC&pg=PA153&lpg=PA153&dq=William+Engdahl+anti+semite&source=bl&ots=a_huXLn0ag&sig=nyI0TBu1UJa2xa9h45JqpEPPsdM&hl=en&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwja2sHO17LQAhWCTRoKHXjhCOsQ6AEIGzAA#v=onepage&q=William Engdahl anti semite&f=false "In 2002 Arnaud de Borchgrave, Editor-in-Chief for The Washington Times, called Executive Intelligence Review "an anti-Semitic potpourri of disinformation, factoids, rumor, gossip, loony tunes and an occasional fact." "The New York Review of Books said that Executive Intelligence Review "echoes Kremlin propaganda" https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Executive_Intelligence_Review#Criticism As for > zerohedge.com > https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zero_Hedge#Readership.2C_views.2C_and_stances "The New York Times described Zero Hedge in 2011 as "a well-read and controversial financial blog." The site was described by CNNMoney as offering a "deeply conspiratorial, anti-establishment and pessimistic view of the world." Financial journalists Felix Salmon and Justin Fox have characterized the site as conspiratorial" Lokey, a former paid Zero Hedge writer who left the website in 2016 over disagreements in editorial direction, characterizes the site's political content as "disingenuous," summarizing its political stances as "Russia=good. Obama=idiot. Bashar al-Assad=benevolent leader. John Kerry=dunce. Vladimir Putin=greatest leader in the history of statecraft."
  23. On my Mac with dual monitors the game is on the one main screen. The only other option is to have the display mirror.
  24. A screen shot of the vehicle's waypoints used would be useful. I've found no problems placing one in the action square on the road just before the bridge and the next one over on the other side with none between.
