haha yes we have added the last member to the Meach fire-team.
Ohh Florida?, you'll get some neat storms there. The horse is lovely Mark. I have never ridden a horse but the girls have had some lessons. The horses and ponies are really docile and lovely.

Mishga my beautiful comrade in CMSF QB editor! Life is good and still making QB Maps for Battlefront. My lord the Kids must be in their teens, yes?
Glad your good.
Ha not quite teens yet, Abi is 11 and is about 5 foot. Tygan is 9 and Leo just turned 4. This is his pre school year at nursery.

Its made me go all warm and fuzzy to see the old stuff get a little airing again.....If you could submit it and give me a little credit for it that would be really great, thanks @Grunt_GI
Hey Mark Great to see you still kicking around

Hey everyone I just got back on to the board....someone messaged me about an old mini campaign I'd posted but the link doesn't work now....no idea where it would be as the old pc is gone lol
This was the last activity in my profile so I thought I would say hey.
Meach & me are still going and the kids are good. Leo is about to be 4 O.o.
We got moved to a great new place with a garden and life is pretty good despite the kids issues.
I hope everyone is doing good, sorry that Meach vanished from Facebook but he'd had enough and jacked it in without a word to anyone...oops
take care all xx

Someone was asking for where this might have gone, I don't have the old PC anymore so my mods and stuff are no more. Anyone other links here to other mods might be appreciated by the chap.
Thanks folks.

BletchleyGeek. It's real nice to hear from you, hope you are having a good day and yes sometimes things do make us stop a moment to appreciate that each of those people online are a real somebody behind the keyboard. Thank you for the best wishes
-
Thank you. That's great I'm really glad they are getting some use, Mark Ezra did a lot of work too. CMSF for Mac...now there was an idea!

Hello everyone! Its great to hear from you and apologies for dropping off the radar, life just sort of took over and stole all my time and energy lol
Good to hear your doing OK Mord and thank you for asking after us, it was lovely to get a nudge about this post.
Buzz it was our pleasure to be involved with the community and the game, it seems like a lifetime ago and I thought everyone would have forgotten about me by now.
Hey Wodin life is indeed a crazy journey sometimes and as much as I wouldn't change Abi for the world despite her issues, I'd give up anything to hear Tygan talk but we keep trying to help her communicate, to progress and most importantly to be happy! Leo on the other hand we have to try to stop him mountaineering on the furniture

It's shaping up rather nicely and no doubt more goodies to come!

Infantry smoke is reliant on the facing of the troops. Works quite well too.

Hi, ASL-Vet
I got your design brief and will mull it over and see what I can do. I mailed you back with more specifics. Between us we might just pull it off

ASL-Vet
If you like, send me a rough draft for a scenario you would like to see, include a list of some troop types that might make it in and I will cook up something for you. Let me know if you want a H2H designed or a typical battle.
Email me or Meach cos we share an inbox and I will try to get something you would enjoy.

No, you have to select the branch of the armed services and the type. It's fairly random from there on in. You can narrow it down fairly well but the unexpected can happen.
The quality slider also dictates the ammo amount and the equipment chosen.
-
That's wonderful guys, thank you very much xx

Harry that would be brilliant if you could help. Drop an email to me? What I am really interested in is if Strykers or equivalent vehicles would be in amongst the fighting positions of the infantry.
Non-combat vehicles like trucks etc understandably, would be well behind the firing line.
Compare a fighting vehicle like the BMP, which I guess would be involved in the action, whilst something like a battlefield taxi would be further behind even to the point of not seeing combat? Think unarmoured or thin skin transporter.
-
Something I have never been to sure of is when an infantry company is tasked to defend a position, where do the transports go?
I heard that they are either tucked into defilade or held about 400-500m behind the position. Is this true?
If that's the case of ICV or transports should they even be on a combat mission map?
Reason I ask is I am designing some scenario's and want a realistic picture of an infantry company doing a defensive mission. If there are no real spots to hide away a vehicle would they sit out in the open? I don't think they would. Would it be better to just have them removed than leave them sitting ducks?
-
I think it's poor quality armour formations within the infantry branch. The T55 (1970) is the lowest version you will get that's mobile.
-
What paint package did you use to modify the screenshots?
-
Silly Meach, It's a camcorder I want you to pack!
The nurse uniform would be better too as the cheerleader one is off to the dry cleaners

I only have one scenario on the repositary but did have a few on CMMODS. Any or all can and should be recycled to bring pleasure to the masses. Just give a girl a lil credit

Around 2004 I took part in a military awareness program and I got to handle the British 51 mortar, it looks really basic, you wonder how it can hit anything. A square metal foot you plant into the ground, a goretex "gator" you hold to protect you hand. It has an adjustable arc depending on which way you twist the whole tube. This is for high and low trajectory shots. You could pretty much angle it down to put a round through a window or door while still being braced.
The tube itself can be locked in one angle for consistent shooting. There were two types of 51mm, the usual drop and launch and the pull cord type. Both worked on the same principle. It was reasonably heavy for a small mortar and the ammo was shared out amongst the team. It was purely for suppression and smoke missions. Never was it envisioned for sustained accurate fire.
Some of the experienced operators could prop up the base plate with flat stones or suchlike to add a few degree's of trajectory.
I also got my hands on the 81mm mortar and the TOW launcher. Me being a dainty little thing it was hard to lift the TOW launch unit. Meach was incredibly jealous of my time with the hardware. I was not allowed to take any photo's especially of the Anti-Tank kit which was a shame.

Having had a message from a R3PENT I tidied up a scenario I was working on. This is more beer and pretzel 30minute gametime hot from the press.
US forces advancing into Syrian Mech Infantry postions. Plenty Artillery to throw around, playable from both sides and as always, open to suggestions for improvement.
This would make a good lunchtime scenario and something that could be played from both sides within an hour or so.
I uploaded to the repositary but it would not let me put in a description for some reason.
Please note you DO NOT need the Marines module for this scenario.
If people wish to have a Marine version and demand is there then I will quickly cook up some alternative troop choices to suit.
Have fun

Mord,
Meach started this thread a while back. We never knew what might happen to you and if you would ever read it. Glad to see that you are home and will be able to read it.
People did think of you when you were gone.

Right, I get what you mean.
How does the IED resistant vehicles deal with EFP munitions? I read that the molten core can reach 2km/s before impact. Are the EFP munitions rarer in Afghanistan than common shells and bombs?
