If it is indeed down because of a larger than usual traffic, I guess there are worse thing to suffer from. I will nonetheless keep checking daily 'til I can kick some yankee/commie asses.

I was playing the same battle as Doc844 above and Unteroffizier Kurwel here has managed to solve the backblast problem of the shreck. Just shoot with your back to the open door!

It happened during the "Lost Cats" scenario. I lost all four of my leaders that had the urge to use the .50 while under the command "no unbuttoned". All killed by small arms fire. But from your comments, it seems it might have just been bad luck. To get back on topic: Also from "Lost Cats", there is this rare kind of enemies that seems to enrage all the guns on the map!

Love the Hellcat although... ...If anyone knows how to get those idiot tank leaders to stay buttoned up, I'd be extremely grateful !

GUYS !!!! HEY GUYS !!!! Look around! There's a big pile of clues as to where NOT to cross the road.

Does your question raise concern about the utility of the M1 in particular or the MBTs in general?

Don't know if it is the only way but I simply run the youtube vid I want, click and select the address (the same as in your blue link above) then ctrl+v in the message body (right click and paste does not seem to work). like so: BTW, thanx for that link. I had never heard of that show/mini series before !

Thanks for the trip down memory lane! I used to get up early to play a few turns before going to school. Those polygons were the last and first things I'd see while a bachelor (and for some time after).

I have that from somewhere I forgot, maybe it helps?

And from The Thin Red Line, I couldn't choose just one scene (in my top 5 movies of all time, all genres included):

So here's my lead Panther, minding its own business rolling down the road with its two SPWs homies (second one is just above right side of the turret). As they near a crossroad, I stop all and ask the right 251 to exit a team to get a peak thru that right hedgerow for any contact. Well... I guess... Jackpot? (trees removed for visibility)

The french tankers had some kind of compromise. Steel helmet with leather flap in the back and "cushion" buoy in the front. The front might have been thought as a shock absorbant while in the tank much like the leather pillow found on german plane gunsights (?).

1st screen of the 1st Mission of the 1st campaign is always a fond memory. A tad more love for the second one in this case.

It did not...due to a mine down the road.
