Goddamnit, Sergei... You're making this thread move to reproductive organs, sooner or later.

No, that was Portugal.

Now that is the most important question, since after the war, only the Russians chose to use lower caliber rifle rounds, ultimately feeding the AK-47. The western countries lumbered around with the severely overpowered 7.62x51 round on their new rifles, until the development of the 5.56 round by the... Americans?

Oh, come on.... Obviously the combustion gases from the panzerfausts would be rigged to connect with the exhaust pipes of the car.

I assume both the front hull and superstructure have a curved armor value?

But.. But... We have Santa Claus and.. Dammit, we have Tarja Halonen! Well ok, she actually is Mommy Moomin. Our parliament is comprised entirely out of fictional characters.

If I recall correctly, the troops ditch the skis as soon as they start firing, or enter a building.

Ok, I have a suggestion: there are certain minorities and ethnic groups that received bad flak during WW2, either for just or unjust reasons. My suggestion is that we form a ground rule that denies having agitating statements about these groups in a member's post signature. That goes also for pro-Jew, anti-nazi or pro/anti-any other statement regarding groups such as these. I dare to assume that most of the active forum members would like to focus on discussing the history of armaments and conflicts, not politics or ideals. So let's stop hammering the hornets' nest with these provocative quotes. (The only exception to this rule are the Finns, since we control America, and the Americans know it. )

Well, we're sure kicking in with a rudimentanry question. Aboveall, could you please elaborate on your problem? It'll be easier and faster to help when we have more information on the issue.

Of for the love of Christ.... Take this to the "Peng" thread. TAKE IT.

Hyuk hyuk.

Unless the unit is exhausted, the surviving men will usually opt to run away from the bullets, instead of trying to waive a white flag at 'em.

I'm confident that the next CM title won't suffer the fate of Duke Nukem: Forever. I'm also happy that the Battlefront crew have kept the hype low; I don't want to see any screenshots or demos until there's a bullet-proof release date. Otherwise I'll go nuts if my anxious waiting is only met with further delays. :mad:

On a second thought, the most effective thing to do would be to grant the faction of your choice a bit of a research boost: imagine if the Germans would've had complete schematics for turbojet fighters, early assault rifles and superior tank designs (like the Panther II) in, say, 1935?

Perhaps in the future, purchased AA assets should be off-map as well?

For my information... :confused:

One good advice is better than a pageful of Seanachai's frothings.

Aren't aircraft modelled well enough already? Not that I'd absolutely object... Wait, do you mean motorcycles or bicycles?

You're welcome.

Jesus Christ, I wonder what "normal" people - you know, the ones who spend than less an hour a day on the internet - think when they're exposed to forums' "special needs" members, also known as the "Peng" squad?

Damnit, a Finn can't remember these things. I recalled the Winter War was somewhere around the 60's.

I like the idea of dynamic flags. Also, if my vision comes true and the next CM engine will cover the pre-Barbarossa operations, a new battle type will come handy, due to the historical superiority of German maneuvers. It'd be a "delay" mission, similar to those in the good ole' Steel Panthers: the defender is not expected to hold the flags at the end of the battle, but to only slow down the enemy advance, gaining an increasing bonus for every turn the enemy is held away from the flags.

If it wasn't obvious enough....

I think I've seen an Excel chart that shows a timeline for each force... Someone will provide a link, I hope.

No, because I never allow my troops to cross open areas so wide that they might wind up in that state. It's either heavy smoke or one squad at a time.
