Sgt.Squarehead got a reaction from Armorgunner in New Atillery for the Stryker Brigades
Glad you cleared that up, I was worried that they might be contagious!

Very egalitarian of them!

S-Tanks (with working flotation screens)?
TBH I'd be much more interested in seeing the 1979 Soviet invasion of Afghanistan.

Add a 'Woo!' to the 'Yay!' already provided above.

Congratulations dbsapp you are now my own personal counter-misinformation project. Don't care about other trolls who come on the forum, someone else will have to deal with them, you are all mine. What does that mean, well I am going to personally fact check and then post in response to your posts like these [aside, not on things like screenshots, those were pretty cool btw].
So in the first mission of the Soviet campaign we have a Soviet MRB (BTR) in the opening push of the first morning of the war. This MRB is good but not the best in the Soviet Army, largely because they are saving those for breakout. You are facing US V Corp 11 ACR who have both M901 TOW and M60A3s (TTS) with a mix of Reg to Crack crews. A wise man once said "your ignorance of your enemy is not a game bug, it is a 'you' bug". Even with that stacked against, human players (even you) have been able to overcome this scenario.
Your sole opinion (and you are entitled to it) but also totally unproven by any of the many tests that make up this very long thread - none of them actually conducted by yourself.
So you don't play the US side much...interesting. Anyway, I do believe they took a run at this issue in the first patch but it is not resolved. M113 thermal/spotting is on the very top of our priority list for the next patch as this is the closest thing to "unbalanced spotting performance" that we could actually find...and you - by your own admission - did not help in this regard.
Wow, so that is clearly simple troll fodder. You have totally blown any idea that you are "just trying to make the game better". You are clearly speculating and projecting intent in what looks like a smear misinformation campaign. The fact that I, and others from the core team, have repeatedly put time and effort in attempts to address the issues you raise (which we assumed was in good faith) is demonstration that we care very much. BFC has a bench exactly one person deep in core areas and they are supporting 8 game lines and an military contract. In short, it is a small indie company, sorry CM Karen if they are not hopping too fast enough.
Ah here we are again at Sov mission 3, apparently "patch" means lower the challenge to the point you can beat it, which is of course our company motto. So to clarify this ham-handed shot, the Soviet Campaign has two versions. The Standard version works exactly as intended (with the exception of a Tac Air controller, which has been fixed) and has not been tweaked at wrt VPs or win conditions. Players should enjoy this one, and people have successfully beaten it.
The second version, March or Die, does need tweaking. As is, it is still winnable (trust me I did the math several times) but it is too hard, to the point of being unfair. A big shout out to The_Monkey King for helping out on that one. Anyway it has been tweaked and will be updated in the next patch.
And now we get to the crux, is this speculation or aspiration from someone who slanders? Regardless, I am not at liberty to divulge details but "we are doing just fine, thanks for asking". To the point that we were greenlit for the first DLC Module in record time and are working on it now.
As to the patch, well it is in the works and hopefully will coincide with the Steam release, "coming soon but when it is finished".

I already did that for the CMRT Warsaw Uprising Mod. I made it red with some lettering on the doors.

That aint all of it. I played with lots of explosives. I also spent time down at 285fsw on air and HeO2. You was wondering why I am so effed up! Now it seems I have to warm up and stretch BEFORE I warm up and stretch. But the graveyards and VA clinics are filled with many many much worse off than me. I am good to go. In 2 hours I go to work and try to help veterans...🇺🇸

Sgt.Squarehead got a reaction from Lucky_Strike in NEW CMFI SCENARIO WITH MODS: ITALIAN PARTISANS
Somewhere in the foothills of the Alban mountains a small group of Italian Partisans decide to interfere with the Wehrmacht's carefully planned withdrawal:
Initial experimentation on one of the beautiful CM:FI stock QB maps.....My hat is off to whoever made these, some of them are truly lovely!
Conditions, the map and no doubt, the current forces, will all be tweaked & retweaked countless timese before this is truly a thing.
PS - Kudos to @Pete Wenman for the map I'm currently using.....Just found your signature in a field, not for the first time!

Sgt.Squarehead got a reaction from JulianJ in CMSF2 Campaign : To Al-Hell and back - Operation ORPHEUS
Well I'm bloody sure I wouldn't have fired a missile at those ranges!
This is a constant gripe with CM, TBH I'm not sure the rules are as consistent as you suggest.

Sgt.Squarehead got a reaction from LukeFF in Russian arms topic revived... :)
I hadn't realised that someone had captured an intact X-47B!
America really should be a bit more careful with their stealth drones!
PS - X-47B has very little in common with S-70:
One would have thought a trained 'threat analyst' might have noticed that.

The Soviets don't tend to do solitary tanks....My bet would be a full platoon (I've deliberately not looked at this scenario BTW).

@Sgt.Squarehead I did the floating icons...check in my goody box.

Sgt.Squarehead got a reaction from Vergeltungswaffe in Shall try to start an unofficial screenshots thread?
@MOS:96B2P @37mm & I did actually discuss that concept a while back.....It would take quite a bit of model-swapping & a fair few mods, but it could (sort of) be done.

I got something even better...

Sgt.Squarehead reacted to kohlenklau in NEW CMFI SCENARIO WITH MODS: ITALIAN PARTISANS
@Sgt.Squarehead
The mod for the CMRT Opel Kadet is now in the goodybox.
My recommendations: set scenario date as July 44 for unit purchase of a French infantry jeep (unarmed). The Opel Kadet shows instead. If that is not what you really want, I have the kubelwagen shell riding the jeep host somewhere...

Sgt.Squarehead got a reaction from Freyberg in Professional.
+ another 1.
I don't know about anyone else, but by the time I'm done with a moderate to large map I'm very often far too frazzled to make a scenario on it.....But I'd love to see someone else make some, while I get my mojo back.

The guy in the second image would make an excellent 'Local Guide' for US units in Operation Husky.

Sgt.Squarehead got a reaction from Phantom Captain in Iranians, Russians, Woodland & Mixed Uniforms
If you are still after inspiration for Iranian armour, how about trying to dress a T-90SA up as the (largely fictional) Khorramshahr tank?
The real thing was (probably) only a single prototype built in cooperation with Ukraine, it's a T-80/84 turret on a T-72S hull.....Kind of cool looking though.
Here is one of the only two only other images that I've seen of it, in a distinctly less appealing camo-scheme:
You can find the other here:

Scroll down until you spot the same nauseating camo!

AFAIK you are generally on the mark, however I wouldn't wate your time responding to what is IMHO little more than semi-coherent ranting.
