  1. It is, as is adjusting position after a few shots before firing again. Often doesn't happen, even with trained and experienced soldiers. Both are tiring; and easy to forget when pumped.
  2. A10 getting new wings: "This makeover will allow the A-10 to continue to protect our troops and to operate into 2035" http://boeing.rollcall.com/topic-a/sponsored-post/10-thunderbolt-ii-gets-new-wings-ensures-sound-freedom-2035/
  3. My sample of game play is so far small, but fully consistent with your observation that US appear way to easily cowered and pinned. And suggestions 1 and 3 would be great.
  4. Ideally needs some tuning. As others have said, early losses could just as likely make others up for the fight even more.
  5. Similar to what I was thinking. Some interesting points I noted. 1. They appear to have ammo to burn. 2. Lots of under barrel grenades firing vaguely in a direction. Ok vague firing has it's place but there was no professionalism of somebody spotting and calling fro adjustments. Generally mush of the firing seen in vids posted looks mostly ineffective, and somewhat unprofessional. 3. Some professional types in snow suites appear- hmm all their faces are blanked for the news vids... could they be shy. 4. "Finish them off" was said to 2 wounded Ukrainian prisoners- then un background "Press is here, there will be no finishing off." I sadly get the impression that finishing off occurs.. likely ob both sides... but I'd speculate more so with the unregulated fighting groups.
  6. I'd agree that in general, shared morale seems a little harsh. But that near instant stuff sounds like an oversight of something.
  7. Ah, got it. Thanks. So I'll use supply trucks/ vehicles most times to save messing.
  8. Re 1. I guess you mean for Quick Battles. IFVs can have supplies, and there is a 4 vehicle supply section that has a truck. Need to check myself whether it has Javs. 2. Yes. But there are other factors. Recon troops are there. Also Forward and air observes. And the Jav teams seem to have extended vision with their jav sights. Also, check the other equipment panel, some squads have extras, and some have good sights on weapons. Also, some vehicles are good, plus the drones.
  9. Can we buy ammo caches in quick battles? If so how? So far I've only found supply trucks- and I like long infantry battles
  10. Big thanks to OP and others for this! I never even noticed it, let alone used it. Alas, it is too late for some of the lads from Company C. But will be sure to save other guys!
  11. Yeah, I can only scratch my head and think they heard the grog complaints and made the wrong conclusions. Regressing to linear instead of improving it. I could be wrong, but imagine the core would like more dynamic campaigns. It's one of those that keep being asked here, and I note that games with a similar tactical level tend to have evolved or have similar requests for dynamic campaigns.
  12. Yeah, it's QB and I pick high motivation for at least 2 units. Thing is the rest of his squad, 3 or 4 guys are still bailing. He turned and ran back into the fight. Few second to go in the turn and he gets clipped wounded, and still pulling another grenade about to throw it. He has supressed and injured one squad and has another coming at him from his 9 o'clock. Will see if he makes it tomorrow.
  13. Veteran US squad fighting in close wood land being overrun by a platoon. The quad is rattled and worse- I can't order them- running away But the machine gunner stands up changes direction and starts blazing away. He runs about 15m towards one squad and fires standing at 2 different squads changes direction runs some more and stars lobbing grenades that stops the second Russian squad. He's not the only one. A forward observer is on his own behind enemy lines after being overrun and is fighting 2 squads. He Killed 3-4 guys on his own in one minute. It awesome experience to see, like watching a movie or story in the making. Can somebody in the know confirm that this is coded for the odd guy to see red mist and go fanatic?
  14. I must be on my 10th; but looks like the speeds are picking up a bit.
  15. Nah, tomorrow. "the greater the pleasure will be great :)" But yes, Yes, YES!!
  16. Hey, thanks for taking time to reply here, and the invite. Will head your way. Good luck with getting to Alpha !!
  17. I was getting the impression S400 trumps Patriot. In addition, they have much more robust layered and layered surface to air defence assets. Understandable, seeing how US anticipate Air superiority at some point. Or the ability to create it in regions for specific periods.
  18. As good a CM is, doctrine is one of the weak areas. I felt CM1 command and fanaticism in CMBB at least seemed to give a different flavour. Have not felt that with Shock Force or Normandy. Same with most other games, players will play with the best tactics they can despite historical doctrine. I take your point though.
  19. John has a big rifle, and a big gun, his rifle is for shooting...
  20. From what I saw it's best to ask that repeatedly
  21. I'm a little out of date. Before Javelin I thought hand-held At. 1. But does Russia still have a Weapons mounted AT Missile superiority? Either in range or ubiquity of them. They seem far more prevalent on Russian Vehicles. 2. I have an idea that Russia is superior to US/West on Ground to Air missile defence. But realise my view is historical. Is it still the case for weapons systems and the numbers. 3. Others????
