Sgt.Squarehead got a reaction from Phantom Captain in Why is CMFB a separate title and not a CMBN module?
While flame-tanks were fairly widespread, you won't find any Jagdtigers or Sturmtigers in Caen or Arnhem.
The Battlefront crew have to make a living from this, so releasing these as seperate packs is almost certainly a business decision on their part.....Absolutely not a problem for me, I feel these titles are a bargain at the price.
I have no idea how many hours I've spent either playing CM (All titles & all modules from CM:BO to the present) or mucking about in the editor, probably thousands.....I really can't think of anything that offers better value for money TBH, I've spent a couple of hundred times more on kits.

The option for more than one AI controlled faction (neutrals/co-belligerents etc.).

Ukraine.....It's the new Covid.

What.....Again?
They always do that.

Sgt.Squarehead got a reaction from Rob2020 in The newest joy out of the Middle Kingdom...the Flu
Dude, the disease affects roughly 0.000326% of the Chinese population and people are calling it a pandemic.....It's utter bollocks, just like SARS, Sharia dominated no go zones, The Steele Dossier, chemical attacks on Douma, The Deal Of The Century and a host of other BS that the MSM keep ramming down our throats in the hope that while we are choking on it, we won't notice that their lords & masters are robbing us blind.
Apologies if this is too political, but really.....FFS!

Terrifying.

Sgt.Squarehead got a reaction from Rob2020 in Wings of the Red Star Mi-24 the Hind is a must see!
Dude, it's Discovery Channel, so I reckon we are on safe ground:

Sgt.Squarehead got a reaction from TheFriendlyFelon in Minefield Mayhem....
Easy Tiger.....The fella's just going through 'The Mine Frustration', we all have to do it at some point.
Let's be honest. it's not one of the things that the game handles particularly well as things currently stand (I actually preferred the CMx1 system, where you could blow 'em up, or wait for ages and clear them), but a few mine-roller/mine-plough vehicles in a future Vehicle Pack will clear that right up.....Maybe Battlefront will give us more demining options in a future patch, maybe not? Preferably not at the expense of something like persistent map damage, I would hope!

Sgt.Squarehead got a reaction from PEB14 in AI plans and a more responsive AI
Reinforcement by trigger.
Timed objectives.
Timed AI artillery fire plans.
And of course the biggy (for campaigners).....Persistent map damage.

Sgt.Squarehead got a reaction from Bubba883XL in Ein Volk, Ein Reich, Ein Führer
That reminds me of my days playing Red Orchestra.....Did you play at all, your map is quite reminiscent (but I suppose it would be really)?
-
Sgt.Squarehead got a reaction from JulianJ in China vs Taiwan please?
Probably had them gold plated first.
IMHO we are well & truly on the wrong side in that one.....Quite apart from anything else the Houthis are gonna win.

Sgt.Squarehead got a reaction from Bubba883XL in How to use Mod Tags
Appreciate your efforts here fella, I'd like to know the answers to pretty much exactly the same questions.

Sgt.Squarehead got a reaction from Vacillator in Heaven & Earth- The People's Beta
You can work around this by giving the Blue side a single NATO/US unit as their first pick in the editor.
The unit doesn't need to appear and either aircraft or artillery units will do to get you the Blue flag.....It just has to be the first thing in the list of units.

Sgt.Squarehead got a reaction from purpheart23 in Engine 5 Wishlist
In battle? No way!
You are seriously going to ask your crew to climb into a smouldering tank with several holes in it and then have them start messing around with the ammo stowage?

Sgt.Squarehead got a reaction from ncc1701e in 2022, the Year In Preview!
Please, please look at the Red C2 and give the Uncons some more Specialist Teams (esp. Breach Teams) & Individual Vehicles.....Giving the US access to Predator Drones would really be cool too (the timing is so close and it's a fictional war after all).
There's still a huge amount of life in CM:SF2.

Sgt.Squarehead got a reaction from Lethaface in Invincible King Tiger
Tanks tend to operate rather poorly without a crew.
Your comment is so wrong as to be utterly facile.....Borderline lunacy TBH!

Sgt.Squarehead got a reaction from nox_plague in Invincible King Tiger
If it was a direct hit, that probably should not have happened.....It's more or less the same as taking a direct hit from a destroyer!
If the shell impacted on the armour the Tiger the crew should be going benny-mental.....There are descriptions from crews of their tanks 'ringing like a bell' and of being able to see daylight through the weld-seams after ISU rounds exploded on their armour.
Needless to say, the tanks broke and the crew didn't stay in them to find out exactly how long it would take for the welds to crack completely and for the turret roof to fall on their heads!
Here's some of their handiwork on Panthers:

Sgt.Squarehead got a reaction from nox_plague in How much would the rights cost To CMA
Nope, those are BMP-1Ps (with AT-4).....They aren't even in CM:A.
It's CM:SF with a shalwar kameez on.

Sgt.Squarehead got a reaction from nox_plague in How much would the rights cost To CMA
Wrong thread.....Still want to see CM:A brought back into the fold though.

Sgt.Squarehead got a reaction from Shorker in CMBS Add-On "NATO": First Raw Image Material Of Units Leaked On YouTube? A Mistake?
I believe we were told that CM:BS would be the next game to receive some attention.....Personally, I can't wait.

Sgt.Squarehead got a reaction from IHC70 in Invincible King Tiger
It helps to use the right names.
SU-122 (T-34 chassis, very short gun):
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SU-122
The SU-122 was an assault gun akin to the StuH.42, not a tank hunter.....The tank hunters of the T-34 family were the SU-85 and later the SU-100 (& SU-85M).
ISU-122 (IS-2 Chassis, long gun with no muzzle brake, same mantlet as ISU-152):
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISU-122
ISU-122S (IS-2 chassis, long gun with muzzle brake, new ball shaped mantlet):
This is the one to go hunting big cats with!

Sgt.Squarehead got a reaction from Grey_Fox in Gran He Precision strikes
No disconnect on my part mate:
Just someone who doesn't actually play these games waffling on again, as far as I can tell.
