snow grogs? Or is that ugly bags of mostly water vs snow grogs?

May not matter. I have had a few AT teams on the move fire when I thought they wouldn't even have a shot at an enemy. Twice in my battle with Broadsword in La Luzerne. Good luck

'cause you gawt to haggle!

So my eventual answer to this was to kill the damn guy. We have been in a bloody firefight for quite a while trying to push past this hedgerow and I just lost an entire squad slaughtered in the lane next to this fake surrender. So my pissed off pixeltruppen gunned him down (I area fired on his AS). So take me up on a virtual war crimes trial. He had his chance to surrender, he can't have it both ways.

Maybe you need a refresher then on how "understanding" BJ can be. http://www.battlefront.com/community/showthread.php?t=108266&page=13 His compassion for his fellow human beings and desire to understand them leaves a little bit to be desired. Give em time, he'll be beating the drum again.... hell he already is but not quite as blatantly yet.

I believe considering they got half of Poland, Soviet Russia gets to raise it's hand here as well. and counting down to the ban..........

C'mon guys. JasonC and Rocky Balboa have both come up with some good constructive ideas. Whatever your personal rancor is right now, lighten up. This is actually turning into a decent tactical thread.

I did read his post which is why I was recommending a USB. Seriously not trying to give him a hard time, but these days I do this for all my games. Better yet, suggest cloud storage to your friends and be a hero. You can get a decent size for free and then they never have to worry about a HD failing or losing a USB.

or you could have just saved it to a USB. (it is a good practice for all your DL only games)

Maybe that's why CM doesn't explicitly show CC, they don't want to do a ToE and animation for tomahawks.

Actually my objection to Star Wars is it is tripe. I LOVE sci fi, it is my first love to read even over military history. No really. The caveat is I like to read (or watch) good sci fi. CJ Cherryh for example sets plausible military scenarios with a much better tactical sense (Downbelow Station being a classic one). Gravity wells, maneuver in space, the issues of speed of light and detection of an incoming threat in time to react, vectoring of mass etc etc Much more plausible and far more consistent. Yeah I get Star Wars is for a particular audience, but that doesn't make it any better writing.

I read the first two and while I like the idea of gaming that period I can't say they are well written. The first book I believe has this American of Native Indian descent whirling into a close combat fight using his tomahawks.... umm really? This guy went through basic and shipped off to Europe carrying his tomahawks.... There is a lot of that. Really lousy stereotype images for character creation and it crosses all nationalities. Lazy work at best. Still it is the only thing quite of the genre out there so you take what you can get.

It'll have to be sumfink, to my knowledge he doesn't bother with puny humans in game play. Sumfink it is!!!!

toss that one over to the gamey play thread?

There fixed that for you. No reason to thank me, I'll be leaving now.

You mean there were some that weren't?

Holding up the white flag? Buddy aid maybe to not have too many guys die of your wounded, ammo sharing for units that need it.

Nah I just added the mods to make it look like NW Europe and got effectively a CMBO upgrade.

I dunno if I want MS or Apple to have a direct connection to my brainstem. Then again I can just shut down the link with copious amounts of alcohol I suspect. At the least I wouldn't care about the link then.

From Today's Dilbert in the Herald tribune Dilbert: I added all the product features that each of you demanded. Now our product is a worthless hodegepodge of complexity. I appreciate your input. I couldn't have failed without you. Pointy headed boss: team-work!! I think that strip should be the banner on the forum.

Well if "all my money" is a significant enough amount I am sure they'd consider it. However you recently mentioned you were broke (at least after the video card). I'd expect all your money isn't going to grab their eye.

I was under the influence of a particular mind altering substance during Return of the Jedi. I was okay till my buddy mutterd "Sir sir, we're being attacked by muppets!!" I then had to leave the theater stifling my laughter till I was able to exit.

First of all, if PzKfw is a woman (and even if not) I can see why more female players would not reveal their gender here. Man talk about geeky nerdy responses to having a player of the opposite sex. I seriously doubt any of us here are "hot", Emery's not included. His eventual loss as the President will say is tragic and when we row him out into Puget sound and set the byre and ourselves on fire I will realize just how "hot". As to the OPs question. Can't answer you really. Hearing one side of a conversation is useless at trying to help determine how things went so wrong. I will say this, picking JPzIVs is no better than picking Sherman 76mm. They are a tough beast and the fact that JonS only included two in Bois de Baugin to face off a Sherman Company gives you some idea of their lethality. There are many factors in determining if a battle is balanced so much so that I have given up on that elusive beast. I just play to enjoy myself and if I think I am on the short end of the stick I fight it out just as a commander on the field would. You fight with what you brought to the field, not what you wish you brought. I actually enjoy feeling like I am on the short end, gives a little more desperation to the battle. What can I say, you should expect that from someone with a place for the 352nd ID in his heart. What I would object to is not finishing the game. Part of developing a gaming partner is sharing your thoughts on the game etc as you PLAY the game. I am getting my ass handed to me in a current battle with a long time PBEM partner due to my own mistakes. I could say, hey I want to start over cause I made a stupid error. Nah that isn't me. So my field commander screwed up and my assault timing is totally botched. Now I want to see how badly and if I can retrieve the situation. I expect my opponent to do his best to obliterate my force.

This is one sick forum, you just gotta love it.

You can do pre made OoBs, in fact there are already a couple on the repository. I don't know if you can import them into a Qb setup, but you could take a qb map and import them into it with a small amount of effort.
