  1. @Flanker15 Thats good to hear about the Italians, anyone got a link to where they have been mentioned? @Joeroma Thanks, I am glad that list isn't the complete version since TOW had many unit types and it would have been a shame to see less for what looks like a damn good sequel.
  2. Why is the list not broken down into 3 nations? Since the American forces were fighting from the west and Montgomery from the east. I know there were some British army units amongst the American forces but for the game you could split the two. The lack of British armour is a little disappointing also since N.Africa was a major theater for Britain and the Commonwealth. Italy not being present is a bit sad as well since this was their major theater as well. Hopefully we will see more British tanks and vehicles, and the Italians being added. I am still looking forward to the game just hope that the list will fill out a bit more with other tanks for Britain.
  3. I know what you mean when the AI tanks take forever to knock out and when you have them your crew die from a slight breeze and the tank falls apart after crossing a field For the time being I am going to play it with the ignore campaign loss option on so I can play the other levels, but it is still annoying when you can't do one you know should be an even battle.
  4. A question about the campaign here. I played through the Polish and French campaign and everything is great, just started the Russian campaign and everytime my tanks are hit the crew are mostly dead from 1 hit. I am using the latest patch and the JSH 1.2.2 mod, and it just seems like Soviet tanks are useless for keeping the crew alive. I can barely get a shot off before a Pz IV kills the gunner and driver in a single hit. So far this has been for all tanks I use even the t.34 mod41. Is this a bug or is the ammo type used by the germans in the early stages capable of butchering the crew like this, and I have to try and flank the enemy more often?
  5. I haven't played any of the previous games like Combat mission so I don't know how good they are compared to TOW, but I really like this game at least from a singleplayer point of view. Its one the few games I know about that has playable fully modeled French and Polish units without it being a mod. I get some of the things you mentioned like planes being able to spot a pin from thousands of feet in the air, but most of the time they seem to strafe my tanks or AT guns. Could tanks not hunt infantry in trenches? A good HE from a flank would rip them apart really. My AT guns are always micro'd to target the nearest target when tanks start getting too close for comfort for me really. My only complaint is that infantry run out of ammo too quickly for my tastes, but that is realistic and there are always some dead to get a new gun from so thats not too bad
  6. When you unrar the file do you just extract it to the theatre of war folder? My destination would be D:Program files/theatre of war Is that correct? I have read the uninstall but couldn't find the install directions. Sorry for being a pain with this.
  7. Hello all new here, but with a question about the JSH mod. I have tried downloading it and I can get the 1.2.1 version, but I cannot download the patch. Does anyone have a link for a different download? Everytime the timer reaches zero on Zshare or whatever its called I click the link to download and it just resets itself.
