I like T34/85 because it was both effective and beautiful.ya know...the best tank in the war

I've had a QB using a solo King Tiger to tackle 8 Russian tanks in Axis attack 35 turns. In the second turn, my tiger became bogged and immobile and stayed there for totally 33 minutes...without firing a shot.

Is there any tactical bonus for being on the second floor? Like our hackneyed tactical wisdom?

Yesterday I played a QB in a large town. I used a IS-2 to ambush a king tiger around the corner. When the King Tiger showed up. Of course they then aimed at each other immediately, within the distance of 20 metres. With the most accurate timing, both tanks fired at the same time and knocked each other out with just one hit...(of course, within that range...a T-34 is enuff) What's your intriguing moments when eagaging in battles?

SO...I have a new idea...when in an operation, the abandoned tanks of our side can be recovered IF ONLY we win the battle, if we are removed from the region, how can we get back the malfunctioning one back for repair? It WOULD be more realistic is the tanks become captured if we lose the battle. At least not regaining them. I am sorry, like MikeyD, I play almost battles, forgive me for not knowing the operation mechanism...

Hamster, I got your point and I think you may be right! Besides, I found your English very legible indeed, don't be obssessed of that. I ain't native speaker neither...It is great that loads of non-native English speakers here 'cos that means CMBB is being played all over the world, right? Oh man I really love CMBB...

Hi all~ This is my very first post here, I have been to this forum for a long time, but I had always been a CD-ROM. You guys just got amazingly tons of knowledge concerning WW2. I think I could benefit much more here than in my university library! :cool: There's a question in CMBB that has been bugging me for a long time... what is the actual difference between knocked out and abandoned AFV? It is clear that knocked out AFV is no longer functioning, but what about abandoned ones? If the AFV is functioning, what is the point of abandoning it? One more thing, do tanks being knocked out not always explode? It seems in CMBB the probablity of exploding tanks is relatively small...(in Band of Brothers, tanks always on fire. :confused: Thx for your help~

Besides CMBB, I am playing: Blitzkrieg Europa Universalis 2 R6 3 CM4 Close Combat 5 Civilization 3 ...
