could they have planned better...sure but the US army can be forgiven for naffing up pre invasion training for the bocage because its obsession with getting off the beaches on DAY 1 was the right thing to obsess on.. once they got on land in strength it was a done deal,, they could learn the tactical lessons as they went on but D-Day had to be a success and they had one shot at it.. they were extremely well prepared and they still messed up in places but the overall outcome was success if they got ahead of themselves with bocage training or this or that at the expense of the logistical strategy of getting men and material into Normandy then history would be different

that site is really good

how about whales there is fossil evidence for walking versions

macro evolution of sea gulls is evident in so far breeds of gull can mate with the breeds close by geographically in longitudinal zones but as you travel round the globe the breeds are not viable with there pairings opposite (or somefink) genetic drift

thats a very cool game device that i expect to see in other games

your talking the place up!

Switzerland is weird but good to visit they have the scenery and the roads are so clean you can eat off them... for a insight on what inflation will have in 200 years time live in switzerland (bloody expensive) In Basel even the junkies are tidy

characterless proto fascist/ukip backwater satellite socially engineered commuter town outside London for f**Ktards who think they live in the country or somewhere nice. apart from that it's great

according to Derren brown you get 24 people to guess and then average their scores..... not a camera trick.... yeah right http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kMIzR6GNAXw&feature=related FAIL

i think its part of the 61st AT reg/51st highland div that landed on the 7th june... any advance on that?

bonus points 6 pounder or 17 pounder?

looks like a cromwell chassis is it a form of kangaroo?

about right beating shane and the gang counted as a achievement... that aussie squad was coming to end of its life but it was still one of the all time greatest teams.. end of an era and all that there is also a sense that england got over exercised last time and dropped the ball

can you demonstrate that proof? Boris London

shame there is no mac version.. i have a decent enough PC but will i need to buy a pc CMBB version or can i output/input to my current mac version? that strikes me a decent compromise a software update option of the pc version that allows that? Boris London

Are you sure of this.....german inf survey found combat occured at much closer ranges than first expected....as for afv combat i know not of. Boris London

I just had an incredable Deja Vu....... for real

I am have heard that for certain events like this the graphics are an abstraction of events....the 19m is a guide distance to the Average location of the Squad......think of it like one man runs out from the squad and loops the AT explosive /molotov whatever.... Boris London

I think someone did a very good conversion of that scenario He ought to do some more. Boris london

Tounge firmly in cheek you would think so but resistance due to air friction of original Y componet is higher due to Y componet V(y)......at apex V(y)=0.....due air resustance intergarl and g.........physics of freefall is misleading as terminal issues will come into play.....IE no extra external input of kinetic energy in Y axis exsits to breakthru natural terminal freefall V(y) max..unlike situation at muzzle where Chem energy of expanding gas overcomes any limitations....IE accn occurs only in barrel.... If you fire a high Vel shot straight up into the Atmosphere.....in a vacum it would come down with the same SPEED as it went up but in air it comes down slower.....this is counter-intuitive........where did the energy go? Surley all that potental energy would be turned back into V(y)equal to that at the muzzle......no some is lost as heat and sound........This is consistently lost thruout shot flight in both axis...... however I am being rather anal (your not kidding) cos while skydivers reach terminal velocity fairly quickly the noticable degradation of acc due to gravity on a 152mm shell I imagine is quite low..especialy in as V(y) is very small compared with V(x)......for all practical purposes you are right........ do not sweat it.........as for plunging fire in AFV combat hmmmmmmmm.... well it is certainly a factor in naval big gun combat where tactics revolve around movement thru plunging fire range zones....these weapons are hurling metal the weight of a small cars over immense distances....could it be scaled down .....? more importantly was it ever tacticaly employed?

well yes .....as long as long range the projectile fall will have enough energy to penertrate the deck.............depends what you mean by LONG. Boris london
