The _Strategy Guide_ implies that all units connected to an HQ with binoculars, can see as if they all have binoculars. Is this correct? I've been sneaking my HQ's to the front patches of woods just to scout land. I could just use connected squads to scout if there's no difference. Does anyone know the specifics on this? Thanks in advance.

Looks like a night-battle. You can only see 200 meters no matter what.

Do you know where I can find this gridded mod?

Good work Slappy. Agreed on survivability in trees issue. The BF boys always give you some relative trade when making a decision in CMBB. It seems risky enough to be hiding armor in trees to begin with (bog down). If no "decoy" vehicle exists in the open, then give aircraft a smaller chance to spot vehicles anyway. Makes sense

Hmmm, no one to take the bait on this?

Steppe is exceptionally difficult to distinguish with the eye unless on view level 2 or lower. Does anyone know if a mod has been created for steppe terrain so that you can see it at any view level? If so, where can I find it? Thanks in advance. [ January 01, 2003, 10:48 PM: Message edited by: tigger ]

With all of your *meaningful* posts here in the ham of Peng, one must deduce you enjoy foreplay in the forum more than sending back turns. Have a Sveedish meatball already and send a turn.

Who's the twit now? Steve, I know you said this has already been discussed, but I tried searching a variety of ways and couldn't locate the topic. Just wanted you to know there was no trolling here. Thanks for jumping into this thread and clearing things up! [ December 30, 2002, 01:00 PM: Message edited by: tigger ]

Do you spend much time checking out threads in the forum?

This just happened to me in the pbem I'm playing now.

Does anyone have an in on this? Curious what BF's time-frame is and what they might be fixing.

Ok wise-a*s, did you never hear of the word anomaly? The musket at Gettsyburg thing is absurd, just like a tank firing HE right into the ground in front of it for a whole turn. The difference is one an anomaly, and one happens repeatedly. That is the point of this thread. And I assume by your patronizing comments that you fought in a WWII AFV vehicle during the war, and had the fine-tuned skills to fire endless rounds of HE into the ground in front of you. Thank you for your *profound* insight. Get over yourself, and respect the rules of the forum . . . we don't use your naughty little vulgar bits in here.

If you had bothered to um . .. read the thread in its entirity, you would see that no one here thinks that if it happens once in awhile there is a problem. It's when you target somefink with clear LOS and the "gardening" begins, that it continues for an entire turn. No one (not even the Poles) would fire endless HE rounds into the dirt 10 meters in front of them.

*bumpy* *bumpy* Come on, how is a guy supposed to find any solution if all we do is talk about the problem. Is there anyone qualified that knows about this? It's not as if we're neglecting to do a "search" on it or something.

Matt, I got it to work thanks to your help. Greatly appreciated!

If ever there was a moment for _Bolero_, CMBB is that moment. In all seriousness, can any of you actually listen to music while you're playing? No friggin way man. You'd have to have the multi-tasking skills of a woman to pull that off.

I also have this problem. I get around it the same way Pigg-Dogg does. I just never minimize the game. Kind of inconvenient. Anyone of you techy-maestros figured this out yet?

BFC may not be working this week, but Steve was in the forum yesterday. Maybe he'll jump in to help us with this one. I'll keep bumping this thread up.

You are. Absolutely clear LOS from point A to point B when this happens.

This also happens to me all the time. It is a good question, I don't know why no one will address it . . . probably because you refer to it as a "bug" in the post title (after the bitc*ing that went on after CMBB was released, a lot of folk in here find the over-use of words like "bug" irritating).

Yes but ONE meter can make the difference at the critical point you're defending. This is a solution to a problem, but it doesn't change the fact that it's a PROBLEM. You can spend hour after hour setting up a solid, layered defense, carefully checking all LOS angles and command range lines. It is not realistic that once you're all set the entire plan becomes null and void because those carefully prepared foxholes can't communicate with the HQ. I hardly think this was a problem in reality.

Does anyone know where I can find a mod that will distingish the steppe terrain at a distance? It's really hard to see at view level 3 or higher.
