  1. I would be surprised to learn that the Stryker doesn't include a box of 40 mike-mike as standard combat load.
  2. Yeah, we need a real campaign for this mod! ND, it's time to start working But finish the final version of TF Panther first, mmkay?
  3. WP is not classified as a chemical weapon by the Chemical Weapon Convention, but still, it is an incendiary. Its use for illumination, screening and destruction of enemy elements is absolutely legal. It is its deliberate use against civilians that is prohibited by the Geneva Convention.
  4. Yeah, even an Abrams with a FBCB2 and an IFF equipment can be nailed if the main gun pokes inside the kill zone of a Cobra... Those pilots really hate armored pussies
  5. Will give a serious look at this new version during the week-end. Thanks for taking our input into account. The beta was very good, I'm certain the new version is pure gold
  6. I'd like to see working hatches on BMPs too...
  7. I actually had the same problem. It was a pre-planned arty strikes, with a 5 minutes delay. Only 2 rounds came, after that the fire mission was over. No casualties, no fire taken by the FO.
  8. I think that means I'm gonna get far less gunner casualties during RWS reloading
  9. Technically, the 1953 Korean armistice was never followed by a peace treaty, so the war never ended . The list of incidents on the DMZ is very interesting from this perspective. Especially the famous operation "Paul Bunyan" .
  10. Yeah, I always wondered why all tripod-mounted ATGM were so long to deploy... Why does it take so long?
  11. First mission went just fine, with 1 KIA and 2 WIA. The BRDM weren't so aggressive after a few well-placed .50 round, or an AT-4 if possible. "Pigs of war" was much harder, but I think that with the infantry placed in the entrance of the yard to score flank shots, it would have been easier. But I was afraid to see the syrian dismounts taking the surrounding buildings before attempting to rush the main building. Around 10 KIA and 20 WIA. "Snitch" : I think the timing was just perfect , even if I had some very intense firefights to exfil the package. "All the way" is cool with the demo charges, otherwise I was around 10% losses. My battalion HQ was surprised to see a BTR platoon rolling next to his HQ on the edge of the map... "Machete" I skipped. "Ambush" went fine, it was really funny to see all these funny little 60mm ordnance exploding. "H-minus" is a low blow, I tried to flank them but I tumbled on a MAJOR strongpoint! Lots of injured... I had difficulties to silence the trenches to the right and the SPGs... I felt the lack of mortar rounds. "Finale" Very nice map. But I think I'm too short on personnel(or there are too much RPG-29 on the other side :-p), so I just decided to stop and restart the campaign from the beginning . But : the Paladins are a real blessing since you can pinpoint a building to level it... The Abrams had a lot of fun, but they have been badly mauled by RPGs and ATGMs. Next time, I'm going to take my time and turn every building into smoking rubble...
  12. Depends essentially of the experience level of the unit... I work just fine with veterans, but I think lower experiences may lead to unexpected results
  13. Actually I'm playing the scenario "The War room", which is loosely based on Dr. Strangelove. It's a Marines Vs US Army scenario. Very good stuff, I can finally plink some Abrams with Harrier-borne GBUs
  14. You mean the scheduled invasion of Western Europe by the Coalition of US and Commonwealth forces? At least, vehicles modelling for the Coalition side would be quicker , and at least we would have the modern French Army in CM, even before CM:SF2...
  15. Of course , sorry about that. SPOILERS AHEAD * * * * * I tried the mission two times, each times I had an entire squad wiped out by one or two well-placed, well-aimed Kornets. Plus, each time I tried to "clear" the mines, I lost 2 or 3 engineers. I like the idea of the mission, but the losses were simply not affordable. And with the losses I got during "H-minus", I think I made the right choice
  16. Omagad! What went through your mind when you did the "Machete" mission? I had to skip this one...
  17. Yes, it is strongly recommended to blast your way in each building . Plus, the buildings have no windows, so most of the time you basically storm buildings easily. I had a seriously wounded D-boy, and the R&D compound was cleared in less than 5 minutes.
  18. Went trough Scenario 3, I manage to reach the target building as the fighters started to surround it. It was a nice BHD style firefight. Just began Scenario 4, the clean sweep of the R&D compound is very fun. These D-boys are just too powerful
  19. That's a success then :cool: I was starting to panic when I saw that the Warthogs where out of missiles, but then they started to straff the BMPs with their 30mm... LOTS of big booms, indeed I took nice holiday pictures
  20. Just finished scenario 2 Minor victory due to the 10% casualty threshold, I had 20% due to... too many dumb mistakes . SPOILER ALERT * * * * * * Took a few casualties due to the MASSIVE bombardment of Syrian artillery... I didn't have the reflex to dismount all the vehicles, so the MTVR crews got pretty banged... I had an adrenaline rush when I saw the second wave of vehicles coming, because I thought I had cleared both But lots of fun, I set up my troops to make a funnel, and the AT-4s took their toll (I followed your advice to resupply in the MTVR, lucky me!). Only thing that was odd was their behaviour of the Syrian... They either for rush the airfield, rolling directly to the runway without stopping, or stood in plain view in front of the factory area... I don't know if you had similar feedback? Any way, I just take a lot to the next briefing before going to bed, and it looks good... Thank you in advance for this campaign!
  21. You're not the only one! The pdf was a great bonus, I'm looking forward to play this!
  22. Am I missing something, or is there only a scenario instead of the entire campaign?
  23. Did someone made some kind of "African" campaign, with hordes of T-55 hunting buffalos across the savane?
