  1. state of the battlefield address! They could even televise it on Chris's channel
  2. few but they really tax the average machine out there. Encouraging is not really the right word. I'd say it was players are pushing the multiple Bn/Regiment scenarios more than BF. They are conceding to a request that really is more than what I think BF originally scoped. Personally I think battles of that scale tend to water down the strengths of the game. Moving large amounts of units leads to more generalized movement orders that then get hung up on AI pathing etc. I do play the larger ones, but I know I can't give them the same attention I give the smaller scenarios and I miss out a lot on what I like most in this game. And to Michael's point a single Regiment doesn't qualify for what he was describing. I don't know about assault boats as they have different issues, they would have to be truck movable and then BF is looking at animations and behavior etc. However LVTs, DUKWs and yes the Schwimmwagen would fit within what they already are doing with BMPs etc.
  3. absolutely, but the nature of those changes is what is in question. Gliders for example will not be a flavor item. Reason has to do with the nature of flavor items. BF has taken a firm stance against large ones. They'd have to be a vehicle. So far they have been resistant to neutral vehicles. For sure you will continue to see upgrades of features and potentially new units. With the advent of Amphib capability in CMBS, it will be interesting to see what gets included in CMBN in the future. I would not expect to ever see para drops. The limited instances of contested landings argues against it, but to correct for the above, the Poles did land in a hot zone in Arnhem with the LZ under attack by more than just an Ost BN. Regardless, BF rarely puts effort into something that has such a rarity rate. Rommel's asparagus is another item that's utility as a flavor item is so rare we are unlikely to see them. The number of items on the flavor item request list is pretty extensive and growing all the time. I doubt we will see more than a fraction of those however. Maybe at some point BF will do a "map makers" pack. I'd buy it.
  4. Much as it is difficult to pretend I care I'll give it a shot. After all it is an historic day what wth ng cavscout being rendered speechless (I assume that is a relative term and that what he meant in human terms is he was incapable of rambling on for another few pages). Ahem. Umm. Ehh Stuka watch yourself over there. Nasty little corner of the world that it is. Seriously watch your back
  5. Nah just the grammer mom, otherwise known as Boo. Or maybe I am being stalked by Maya Angelou.
  6. wrong she wanted to hit me with a chipper.. or did she say put me in the chipper? I forget, anyway so what. Here I'll cater to your uber sensitive sensibilities. It was probably the yard to whence they were towed beyond yon Georgian border by the repo man. Happy now? Cry baby. And you think to supplant my liege Joe Shaw Knight Champion of the M.B.T., Justicar for Life of the Peng Challenge Thread, Creator of the Peng Challenge Thread Podcast, CessPool Drain Commissioner and Founder of the Shavian House. Now let's see your next flowery post demonstrating your superior grasp of the English language. No not just some dumb ass response like "You make Maya Angelou want to beat you to death with a 7 iron. But then you have that effect on everybody." This must be some example of prose to make all the CessPool stand Including even Emrys (though that might require a forklift) and take notice and perhaps even bring a tear to our eyes. Actually that might not be too hard, your mere presence makes us sad.
  7. Has it never occurred to you that the problem of "legibility" might actually be a reflection of typical Akronite illiteracy? No? Yeah I kind of figured. I suspect you also think Lincoln totally botched the Gettysburg address too.
  8. I'd start here http://battlefront.mojohelpdesk.com/ and if you don't find an answer or aren't sure open a ticket with the helpdesk. I don't have a full picture of the issues raised if you have a paradox version, sorry. Patches generally do not need serial numbers.
  9. Definitely a new family. CMBN is done barring packs. Fall 1944 to VE Day is a new family, when? . . . Dunno. Pacific and Cold War Europe seem to be two areas BF has already ruled out. When they have finished off east front and NW Europe maybe they will revisit
  10. Huh now I have 0. What the hell, I worked hard to be hanging out with the cool kids, now they are gonna say I am a fake.
  11. Not that it is likely you'll ever get one Emrys, but you may want to take note of what happens when old people refuse "Friend" requests. You know with this new forum and all, someone might actually slip up and send one to ya. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2880831/Face-slap-Facebook-Woman-27-arrested-smacking-GRANDMOTHER-age-72-rejected-friend-request.html?ITO=1490&ns_mchannel=rss&ns_campaign=1490 I'm betting this is some of Boo's family. Has all the hallmarks of Akron trailer trash. How they made it to Florida? It was probably where the repo yard is that hitched up their trailer.
  12. Happy 50th. I bought a house for mine. Nah not really it just kind of coincided.
  13. Think of it this way- you have two weeks of vacation time to get CMBN/CMFI/CMRT out of your system cause this is gonna be a whole different thing.
  14. Honestly don't know, not sure if it has multiple AI plans or not. I would assume to be safe that it would ruin it. Then again I have tested some scenarios multiple times and still had it play out differently every time.
  15. odd cause mine are still showing and I'm also using photobucket. I just hit the img link and it auto copies
  16. No thread is so good it can't be improved upon with a bit of Monty Python.
  17. Yeah and nice to see i am not the only one who gets his guys killed quick, though I have learned one lesson- Never park your Javelins with your FOs....
  18. Your mother has already written to me complaining about your lack of attention to the AAR. I am betting you get coal this year in your stocking.
  19. Might want to change your sig then. Something appropriate like "Squire to House Rune until I woke up and realized wtf I'd just done." Once again House Rune continues to entertain...in similar fashion to a fender bender off to the side of the road with two uninsured motorists duking it out while the police officer just stands shaking his head at the stupidity he has to face on the job.
  20. I have been tinkering with a town, but it is a long way from anything useful. There is one map out there on the repository, but that is it as far as I know.
  21. I had 1, then I had 2, now I have one again. I not only don't follow the rules, my rules violations don't follow the rules!
  22. It should, but when is another question. BF's intent to keep the engine uniform implies that eventually what is in the release will make it to the other game families.
  23. I think you get to stuff it yourself, but good luck fitting it under your tree.
  24. I suspect BF is probably going to give some more hints sometime after the first of the year assuming they have decided. My wish list is stupidly ridiculous, but whatever they say is coming next will make me happy.
