Yes good Ole Sid, he is a genius in games design and achieving target dates...........
Vaporware......I hope not as it does sound great from what I have read but I fear you may be right..

Wondering if anyone knows whether this will be ready for Christmas............Have to start saving for this present as no-one else will buy something that glues me to the computer for such long periods of time.......

So how "exactly" does that work?Originally posted by k-trout:Auto, the same way they hide the naughty parts in Japanese porno flicks.
Mosaic. :cool:

Wasn't the Type 89A a Japanese tank? I think you're in the wrong forum. This is the Eastern Front forum. </font>Originally posted by Jack Carr:</font><blockquote>quote:</font><hr />Originally posted by k-trout:

But seriously. . . PBEM.

I found it on cmmods but it was on the CMAK side. the .bmp are the same for both games so you dont have to change anything. If you still cant find it let me know and I'll email it to you.

Ok first thanks DAF for yet another fine answer.Originally posted by Der Alte Fritz:On map mortars in dead ground with HQ spotter.
Second I am from OZ and not the UK as you may have assumed.
Third and most importantly, with a HQ spotting for a mortar how do you tell the HQ you want the mortar to shoot it's target?
cheers

Yet another question I do not know the answer too........man this game continues to get harder! :eek:Originally posted by z-warfare:Spelt or spelled?

Where can I find this MOD?Originally posted by junk2drive:From the readme for Captain Wacky's CW_Tracers mod:
"Rename the .bmps you want to install.
300.bmp is Axis
301.bmp is Allies
After you've done this, paste the files into your CMBB/BMP directory. When it asks if you want to overwrite the existing files, click "yes to all."

A new query for you knowledgeable lot.
First is knowledgeable spelt like that?
Second...in your opinions is support artillery/mortars preferable to the randomness of air support when available?
cheers

DAF - It shall be done now
Edit - sent as "DAF'sNote File for CMBB" in subject line.

Just a general update for all who are helping and advising me at the mo......
I have beaten all the 100 series with the exception of Mr. Nasty.
I have beaten all of the 200 series with a few little speedhumps along the way..
I am now moving into the 300 series..
Comrades..once more we advance to glory or death!!
-
DAF - OK.......I beat it with my troops pushed up two levels......stuck when I lower it one.......
I can do the others fine.....specially if I have tanks or other supporting units...just the inf I am having trouble with really.
Are there any other Inf only scenarios I could practice with cause honestly that one is really starting to annoy me.
-
DAF - Those notes are a great help and while I still have not beaten the first inf one I have at least beaten the next two!
LT TEL - Thoughtful advice and I am trying those things.......just doesn't seem to help yet......perhaps more practice required.
-
Thanks a million D.A. FritzOriginally posted by Der Alte Fritz:Have sent notes by email.
-
I have tried sneaking, advance, and several other ideas I had all while pouring fire into the trench from two squads, but none of it seemed to work.
Still I am not giving up on it......I will crack it, call me stubborn or just plain stupid but I now feel that I MUST beat it.
Mount up comrades.....we advance again!
-
I have downloaded the JasonC stuff, but I may get your notes.......I must suck at this game.........I beat the first three with the tanks easy........then I hit the inf ones and ground to a halt........ :confused:Originally posted by Der Alte Fritz:Welcome to the Red Army Comrade!
Go to this site and download the training scenarios written by JasonC. http://www.blowtorchscenarios.com/
There is no better way to learn - let me know if you want my notes - I am just doing the battalion level actions at the moment.
If playing PBEM you might consider picking the appropriate month and year. I would say start with 1942 before the intro of the Tiger or Panther or with early 44 so that you get T-34/85 and SU-85/100 but no King Tigers or late 45 so that you get proper IS-2s. Better to ask for details from a grog this is just a guess.
Oh and pre-plan all your artillery missions in the first move otherwise you end up wasting it.

OOOOps......mucked up the quote.......oh well

Well I never actually said but for background info I will inform you all now.Originally posted by Der Alte Fritz:I am not sure from your initial post if you have actually played Soviets before.
I only started playing about 3 weeks ago now, I was playing as Germans and Soviets and getting nowhere fast,I decided to concentrate on one side while learning and picked the Soviets. It was after making that chioce that I heard that the Soviets were unfairly represented and the Germans were much better so I thought I would ask here.
I am now playing PBEM games with various people and So far have only won a game against the Computer with the Soviets.
Much to learn and very eager to beat my German opponents.
Cheers all.

Information overload....again, thanks for the great and helpful insights you have all provided. Rest assured it is all greatly appreciated.

A lot of info to sort through, thanks guys for the help.

" What are the main advantages and disadvantages of the Soviets "
I have heard that the Russians are handicapped in game by:
- Tanks with the big guns like 122 or 152 guns can’t knock out German tanks if there is no penetration. You would think something like a big HE explosion alone would knock out or kill the crew and cause major damage
- T34 tanks can’t penetrate the front of the later Stug III tanks when it should at least give partial penetration.
- The 45 mm gun on say the BA10 has too low a penetration rating compared to the T 60 light tank which has an identical gun.
I wondered if anyone could tell me if these are true or not and what other problems there may be that should influence a Russian players force selection prior to battle?
