Had another closer look after seein poesels screenshots. Really looks like a cupola hit, BUT, the loader was killed, not the commander. I´m pretty sure the loader is on the other side of the turret. Explanations?

So I´m advancing a buttoned Tiger I towards a known sherman position. The Tiger is pointed exactly towards the Sherman. In the exchange the Shermann fires three shots (hit/ricochet)), the Tiger one (miss) at abot 200m. Two of the three Sherman hits cause spalling and a casualty in the tiger. the crew bails. Is this even remotely likely (the spalling)? We are talking hits against the thick armor of the tiger turret.

Especially on the eastern front.

Thx for the campaign! Enjoying it so far.

Sicilian High Noon. Even taking American wild west duel superiority into account, this GI got very lucky.

The shadows are less ragged with the hotfix on my ATI Mobility Radeon HD 5870. Very nice, Thx! (The difference is easier to see if you flip back and forth betweeen screenshots) (ASUS G73J Laptop)

I think the last third of the video is more of where some people hope that epigenetics research will finally lead than what is actually known.

Yeah, weird that with the titles. What I liked is that Porch treats the whole theater and there is little hero worship. And it´s serious history vs. more the more racy Atkinson book (fun though it is). Maybe Porch oversells the importance of the Mediteranean, but as you say YMMV.

Get the CMSF modules and buy CMBN when it´s upgraded.

IIRC BFC stated that covered arcs do not affect spotting. Having the gun pointed in the right direction helps though once you´ve spotted the enemy.

Nice! Looking forward to the new equipment list!

Ok, I´m a pushheredummy (LOL). I agree and I disagree in equal measure. I´ve been surprised how things I learned at school or university turned out to be useful although I was sure at the time that they wouldn´t be. Most tasks, even technically difficult ones can be learned by anyone within a few weeks. Understanding the big picture OTOH is not something that can be grasped easily without an education. In the end there is no fairness in the education debate or job reality. If you don´t have a degree people will ignore you because you don´t have one. If you have a degree you will find out that market forces apply and where there are many Phds the degree profit margins shrink often making the time and money investment questionable.

Heh, made me think of the grey/beige cheap plastic last generation of dial phones issued by the the government tel. monopoly in Austria in the 80s. The phone-base would involuntarilly side around the table as you dialled because it was too light. )

What we need is more action spots. Twice as many per area would help alot. maybe in CMx3?

solution: add all offending files to the exceptions list of your anti virus progam

This has been around since CMSF. You give your forward observer a fire plan, he gets killed by a stray bullet early in game and part of your artillery remains incommunicado for the rest of the game. My suggestion: When the unit that gives artillery dies, the artillery should be accessible within 10(?) minutes by other forward observers or HQ units.

Doh, this has existed since CMSF and i never norticed it, thx!

The Ujghurs from western China wouldn´t find turkish difficult. I don´t know of course if there were any Ujghurs in the Chinese Army in Korea. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Uyghur_language

heh, I was wondering if this was going to pop up when I saw that Clay was involved

Minor bug: In the scenario Holy Ground, you can´t enter the little doors on the inside of the high towers. Caused some unnecesarry casualties

More (a denser grid of) action points. Ability to aim at a specific window.

Yes, and add in a 9800GTX video card or better and you´ll be fine. BTW, out of memory might be caused by an out of date ATI graphics driver.
