[Noob PBEM question]

Just fixing the link, it doesn't like the comma.

[help with quick battles; attacking russians]

Honestly I can't see a 300 points attack with random settings being of any help. Sure, it's just me, but... if I were you, I'd go for something less... exotic. Points, battle type and settings wise.

[CMBB - 1st impressions and some questions]

Dunno about real life, but in BB, Soviet Airborne guys get a four-squad platoon of 12-men squads with 11 SMGs and a LMG if I remember correctly. Or was it 11 guys and 10 SMGs? Can't remember now. As for the place/date when and where they become available, beats me, dunno.

Best firepower I've ever seen. Low ammo though.

[question on unit availability]

Perhaps it shows the same squads with different weaponry (like the Germans sometimes having Russian smgs instead of German ones)? That's the first thing that came to my mind. Perhaps if you pointed out the specific infantry type you were thinking of...

[Can you explain this?]

Yep, the GUI is what I meant, checked cmmods and found it, thanks for the info! And sorry for sort of hijacking the thread )

Hey there, Phil, I was wondering what "skin" is that (and perhaps if a similiar one exists for AK as well)? Looks pretty cool (and more eyes pleasing than the default one I might add )!

[Getting through hedgerows]

Ah-ha, so that's the one and only reason for the hedgerow-vehicle-July 44 relationship in CMAK?

Very well then, I shall use this information to appear way cool and educated over there where this question was posted, huge thanks!

[Getting through hedgerows]

Hello there! First, let me say what awesome games all the CMs are - have to make a good impression with my first post )

Anyway, as the topic suggests, I've got a question regarding hedgerows in CMAK. I might not sound entirely coherent, as I actually can't remember dealing with hedgerows myself, but I've read about the Allied tanks being able to cross hedgerows in-game since, I believe, July 44. And the Axis not being able to do so, and neither Allies before that date.

Now if I remember correctly, that corresponds with the date from CMBO and the introduction of the Rhino bocage crossing equipment, so I thought that, however weird it might seem, the Allied armies in Italy might have had acccess to such equipment as well. But that's the core of my problem - it sounds rather unlikely and all I got are such speculations.

So that's what I'm wondering about - is that perhaps a remnant of CMBO game code that wasn't removed? Or is there a historical reason for such behaviour and the Allies in Italy indeed did use such hedge crossing equipment (since July 44)? Or did perhaps the original poster of that piece of information regarding the hedgerow crossing get his facts wrong and there is no such thing in CMAK?
