    Thanks for the clarification. It is a lot clearer to me now. Considering the " lets blame Russia for everything " approach prevalent right now in the West, I don't think Russia would have taken the action they did without reason.

    I wonder how Britain would react to a Russian Naval Flotilla exercising in the Irish sea.

    I find CMCW to be a very good bridge between the post World War 2 era and the current "Modern Era". If you take 1980 as the median date, you are 35 years after WW2, and 35 years later takes you to 2015.

    Actually, in addition to manual cleaning, I used a can of compressed air. It was very handy to help clean out the fine dust.

    z1812 got a reaction from bobo in My top three tips in CM2 series   
    1. Read the Briefing Carefully.
    2. Take your time during the all important set up and planning stage,
    3. Don't advance troops before scouting the area you wish to move to.
    4. Be patient and thoughtful. Treat your digital troops as if they are flesh and blood.
    Most importantly, if you continue to lose against the A.I., don't blame yourself...........it's Battlefront's fault for designing a half decent A.I.

    z1812 reacted to t34577685 in I just cut the Russian coat short,haha   
    Because of my personal aesthetic, I prefer a shorter greatcoat, and I see all kinds of photos, movies, pictures of Osprey uniform books. The Soviet army will wear a shorter greatcoat after 43 years. But I don't know how to change the model, so I tried to change the 24 bit BMP texture file. After many failures, the flame image in the game inspired me. I found that it use the 32-bit BMP texture file with alpha channel. So in its way, I also introduced alpha channel into the greatcoat's texture file to cover the longer part. succeed!
    Next time I'm going to shorten the Allied coats of cmfi and CMFB.

    I presume, by your comment above, that you have not done much reading about feet on the ground in World War 2. The difficult job of rooting out defenders from entrenched positions fell to the infantry. Yes it can be slow and difficult, just like it was in reality. Combat Mission is not a Real Time Click Fest. It is much more simulation than game. That is why some countries use it for training purposes with their Military.
