AHAHAHAAHAHAHAHA MG thought he owned the battlefield with his T-34 m43s and KV-1Es. Then he met mr Tiger. Carry on. -
LOL, that sounds like an attempt at more poetic damage results. No more "front upper hull penetration, 1 casualty". "night is falling" does capture what the feeling must be inside the bunker as the firing slit penetration damage occurs doesnt it

In your dreams soddball...in your sick twisted perverted dreams. I will fight to the last pixel-communist to save me from such a fate. Forwards comrades. I will stay back here with the machine gun to make sure that you all keep motivated. [ December 18, 2002, 04:28 PM: Message edited by: Leutnant Hortlund ] -

Tell the truth now, it is you who insist that all your friends, family, neighbours and co-workers call you "The Lion of Sweden" because you have fallen for the myth that all Swedes are great porn stars. -

*sigh* Do I have to taunt you again with another witty poem or have you finally come to your senses? You can have poetry or you can send me a setup. It is your choise naturally, but I warn you not to underestimate my eerie ability to be a royal pain in the ***. -

Question about muzzle velocity of 75L24
Hortlund replied to massimorocca's topic in Combat Mission Archive #4 (2002)
Would that be an African or European 75L24? -
I have HoI and with the new 1.02 patch it is really good. There are a couple of relatively minor issues left to fix (arent there always) but now the game is playable and challenging (if you play at the highest difficulty-level). I think the limit for multiplayer is 8 players, and you can play whatever nation you want (even the really crappy ones like Abbessinia or Bulgaria or whatever). A taste of what 1.02 is like: I'm playing a game as Germany right now, its in the middle of September 39 (I'm playing the 36-48 campaign) and this game has been the most intense, nerve wrecking experience I've ever had with a strategic-level game. As my panzers were tearing through the Polish lines, France did the unexpected and attacked into southern Germany. Something like 15-20 French divisions came charging out from the maginot line. I only had some cavalry divisions and some militia divisions covering that front (because, hey, we all know how the French suck...right). My poor second line units were quickly routed, and whats worse, a counterattack with four of my good 1st line infantry divisions was beaten back with heavy losses. So now Im scrambing units from the Polish front to build a hasty new defensive line around Munich and Hannover. And the damn russians seems satisifed with just waiting for me to mop up Poland before they demand their half in accordance with the Molotov-Ribbentrop agreement. Meanwhile, my poor Luftwaffe is stretched to the breaking point. British (and Canadian) strategic bombers are attacking targets in northern Germany 2-3 nights a week, at the same time the Polish airforce (!!) proved to be quite a challenge with 6 or 7 fighter squadrons more than I expected. So with half of my fighter squadrons facing the british bomber offensive, and the other half keeping the poles in check, I didnt really have alot of aircraft left when the French hit in the south. So now the French airforce is dominating the skies over southern Germany. The only bright spot is Bismarck, she managed to slip through the British lines together with the cruisers Deutschland and Graf Spree, and they are now wreaking havoc among the British convoy lines in the north atlantic. In two weeks they have sunk over 20 merchantmen.

Initial Impressions of Strategy Guide
Hortlund replied to Terrapin's topic in Combat Mission Archive #4 (2002)
Well, the game is certainly not unplayable without that information. However, personally I am of the opinion that basic stuff like how units recover from shaken status should have been included in the game manual.
