  1. The graphical representation is generic for all degrees of damage that opens a breach, but engineers using explosives against building walls is meant to represent using quick mouse hole charges to open a man-sized breach in the wall, not demolition of the entire wall and supporting structures.
  2. Kuderian - shortly to be driven from the forum in shame.
  3. I find that WP both instantly blinds and often wounds, so it can effectively silence MGs.
  4. If you have a TRP placed on the map, you should be able to select "personnel" as the mission type outside of setup phase when targeting the TRP. Also note that some assets (e.g. mortars) simply do not have this option at all.
  5. I think the flattened structures are from Allied bombing of the area after Market-Garden (I'm pretty sure the photo above is the north bank).
  6. I'm sure they are both NATO-standard 1/7 twist.
  7. Darkest Hour is a community mod.
  8. To be clear, Bil is not suggesting there is something wrong with the game. Buttoned R35s, with their one-man turrets and poor vision devices, should be pretty incompetent.
  9. Sometimes there is a use for the word ****tard.
  10. Much of Sicily is poorly suited for armor. Some areas will find tanks entirely road bound. The poor damn infantry will be taking those peaks.
  11. The Priest in CMFI is an earlier version, I believe. I will double check on that. edit: the M7B1 is in CMBN German GLs are available in CMBN via Infantry --> Grenadier Battalion --> Grenadier squad option.
  12. Oh, look at that little quote box down there all on its lonesome. Poor thing.
  13. US pathfinders were set up in response to the airborne failures during Husky, but...this is the CMBN forum.
  14. http://www.lonesentry.com/blog/tiger-armor-thickness.html
  15. I'm pretty sure no one ever said it would be days.
  16. Drainage ditches and other such channel features would be part of the map, not a fortification with Fog of War, just like they were in CMSF (but failed as fortifications for that very reason).
  17. Downfall is about the fall of Japan. Berlin: The Downfall 1945 (published in the US as The Fall of Berlin) is about the fall of the Berlin.
  18. I notice a big difference in units that are out of command, particularly in their tendency to break and run under stress.
  19. I don't believe any of the jeep MGs dismount in the game. In the commonwealth module, there is a universal carrier with Vickers MMG that can dismount their gun. When the MMG crew dismounts, the gun will come with them.
  20. The book is online in its entirety here: http://www.history.army.mil/books/wwii/100-11/100-11.HTM
  21. I don't think E.P. was any sort of HESH (also called HEP for "High Explosive, Plastic") as it did not utilize plastic explosives. I suspect it was just a very inefficient shaped-charge design.
