    Italian guns need

    in Combat Mission Fortress Italy

    Posted

    the fact is that very often there were no ways do deal with enemy tanks and as a result it often happened that the campaign batteries were used in action against tank. the 75/27 was not a very effective anti-tank weapon and we relied almost exclusively the useless cannone da 47(inutile contro i carri americani)

    Bersaglieri Helmet and Modding Future

    in Combat Mission Fortress Italy

    Posted

    Exactly, it's no coincidence that they (and not some line infantry regiments) assumed the role of mobile infantry for the divisioni corazzate and divisioni celeri.

    Perhaps today (with a professional army and a high proportion of bersaglieri with respect to the infantry totals) bersaglieri are not that much different from ordinary mech infantry, but I'm positive that for equipement, organization, fitness and esprit de corps they were way better than line infantry in WW2.

    BTW I'm surprised that, given the quote in your signature, you think that bersaglieri unit weren't better than average line infantry. ;)

    Of course I'm referring to battaglioni mobilitati, carabinieri paracadutisti and other units that had front line duties, not the average MP company.

    I hope the game will correctly model the peculiarities of Italian equipement. BTW, now that CMx2 is able to model HESH ammo, perhaps we will see effetto pronto shells for Italian guns.

    Regards

    We agree, but I really have never said they were not worse or equal to line infantry, I just say that I think could not be considered fully Elite, like Parà or Alpini or for example at the XXXI or XXXII Btg.Guastatori in North Africa just one example.

    Anyway, I was referring only to the period of WW2.

    The batt. carabinieri at that time not played combat roles worthy of being placed in a context like that of a game.

    However, it was an interesting discussion

    Bersaglieri Helmet and Modding Future

    in Combat Mission Fortress Italy

    When you were conceived, the Bersaglieri were born as elite troops, like the tiragliatori,volteggiatori , Jager ecc. ,but later took on the role of troops "celeri", it is no coincidence that the various bersaglieri regiments were placed in so-called divisions Celeri.

    the paratroopers they cost 45 times what it cost the training of a line unit.

    therefore agree that the paratroopers were an elite or Alpine, but not very much agree on bersaglieri.

    regarding the carabinieri, were and remain, military police, so do not think they get well in the context of the argument.

    However, you are right about the rest, we can finally see the piumetto in the game.

    regards

    Quick search revealed many "action" and "field" photos from Africa to Afghanistan. Of course, very few action photos are actual combat. This however, does appear to be a combat photo:

    Bersaglieri_e_carri_L3_in_azione.jpg

    The previous picture was actually taken during the attack on the monastery hill in Greece.

    The piumetto was applied to the helmet, and was Gallo Cedrone though once there were two differences: the officers had the reflex blue, while the troops were green.

    Even for the Alpine applied ,and still applies, black pen.

    in the image below is my cappello when I was officer with black pen.

    Bersaglieri troops also were not elite, but they arise as light infantry and motorized infantry later.

    would also be interesting to see in the game also FEZ

    The fez was used very little in combat but was only supplied to the troops.

    The fez was a type of cap given by the French Zouaves sharpshooters during the Crimean War in honor of the bravery to bersaglieri.after became a hat used mainly in barracks or services not operating.

    but it would be nice to see him in the game!

    also had the Blackshirts but Fez was black

    Italians!!

    in Combat Mission Fortress Italy

    Posted

    I'm really curious to see 3D models of the Italian soldiers!

    From the first screen that appears above the ground is very well done and also the Italian veichle, although the 90/53 were very few!

    I believe that playing with the Italians would be very funny, especially because there were many divisions of infantry with a few really heavy armaments.

    I am really very happy that I'm Italian, you can play CM in this theater.

    I wait to see what they look like 3D models of the Italians.

    only a consideration for CMN:

    right.

    I was referring to all the special effects: I know that there were some nice mod, but I would not only change the skins, but the actual content.

    Explosions, smoke, dust etc. muzzle flash tracer.

    When an artillery shell bursts, it generates a huge amount of smoke, I was mountain artillery lieutenant and was shooting with the 105mm ,from what I remember, the 105 did a good show of smoke, therefore, time of dissipation of smoke and improved 3D models is not enough, in my opinion, textures put a "smoke "2d" and make it appear on the ground, is not sufficient.

    small arms are not those evil flames in front, but smoke .. it would take a bit more realism.

    I know that this topic is not important for most of you, but I was wondering one thing for developers: special effects.

    I was expecting something more honest, now I understand that this is not the most important point of the game, pointing to the realism, but are the same special effects that were in CMAK.

    I'm a fan of CM, and I think it's the best game of his class, but is not it time to update this aspect, which undoubtedly is not the most important, but that could extend the game a lot?

    We should expect something in the future? (Maybe a nice update);););)

    stereo sound files?

    in Combat Mission Afghanistan

    Posted

    I wanted to create new audio files, but I wanted to create them in stereo.

    I noticed that the file background is in stereo, but audio files are not shoot and must be in mono.

    You can create new audio files, such as explosions and shoots, in stereo?

    excuse my ignorance on the subject.

    New modules? maybe Italy or France

    in Combat Mission Shock Force 1

    Posted

    No offense taken, really. I was just playing along (thus the smileys).

    Your comment wasn't offensive, by far.

    There's so much crap posted on the Internet about our "french cowardness", you wouldn't believe it. That's the reason I do appreciate the Battlefront forums. When people are joking, it's usually in a good natured way - "bon enfant", as we say in french.

    I know that, hopefully, friendly and educated people get the bigger picture when it comes to my country.

    I served two years during the Bosnian war (1993-1995) with my fellow french soldiers under UN mandate and met great people from various foreign detachments. Those were awful times, I tell you.

    Today, I often think about the soldiers serving in Afghanistan (whether they're french or not). May they come home and to their families safe and sound.

    On a lighter note, if you have the opportunity, go visit our country, you won't regret it. So many different places to see, historically and geographically speaking (and you can go up north too....:)).

    And the people are actually a lot nicer than it seems.....:D:D:D

    Have a good day.

    P.S : By the way, I hope my english is good enough and that I'm not making too many spelling mistakes.

    I love France so much.

    I also have been an Italian army officer, Alpine infantry, and I personally met some French soldiers, exceptional.

    I've been many times in France, is a beautiful country.

    greetings from italy

    I personally like, in future, be able to play CMSF2, in a theater, for example, in the Middle East.

    Six Day War, Yom Kippur 1973, Lebanon 1982.

    I also once tried CMBN, but I do not like the bocage and are returned to Afghanistan and Shockforce.

    For me the important thing is that the next game is more directed towards a better "immersive", that is perhaps more attention to aspects of graphics and animations, which are not as important, but they contribute a lot to make the game more challenging.

    As for CMSF seems that will not be released new modules, patience ...

    I hope, as a Warrior, perhaps in the future will be issued a new patch that contains a list of vehicles, including Afghanistan, maybe.

    greetings

    possible changes?

    in Combat Mission Battle for Normandy

    Posted

    I think there would be merit in expanding cmbfn:

    1-create units that can supply the ammunition, for example trucks, creating, for example, various types,artillery ammo, or light ammo, no need to enter the interior of a truck drives to supply them.

    2-can shoot with artillery or mortars in the map, even in places not visible directly, obviously with less precision, this was possible.

    3-make it possible for modders can also change other things in addition to sounds, for example, give the possibility to modify the special effects, such as smoke and varied.

    what do you think?
