Yes but he has a pistol/AK in the main weapon area (and not an RPG) so I'm confused.

What does it mean when in the interface it shows a soldier with a pistol or AK but has the rocket symbol next to it in a little box in the top right?\ Does that mean he has a RPG but doesn't have it out or what exactly?

Yeah I was mainly nervous as hell about ATGMs and losing half my transports before I had a chance to dismount my infantry in/near the town which is why I rushed in there. Guess I've been playing too much Pooh . Anyways good advice, thanks. Out of curiosity, how is that that we manage to keep such low casualty rates in Iraq? (overall I mean) IIRC the entire battle of Fallujah amounted to about 50 US deaths. Do we just literally bombard everything with CAS before moving in?

So I played my first RT multiplayer game today. Pretty challenging. I pulled out a draw, despite falling into ambush after ambush (I was attacking as BLUFOR) but I took so many needless casualties from just not being able to watch everyone, and have everything perfectly synchronized. My force size was about 2 companies strong. Yet I see these claims of people getting lower casualty rates in the campaign with RT (as opposed to wego) and I'm kinda amazed. Any tips?

Nevermind, got it to work with Hamachi. Still, would be nice if it had worked straight off.

Tried this today and it just said "connecting" endlessly. Couldn't join or host a game. It also said I have two IP addresses which I thought kinda weird, does that have something to do with it? And yes I have my firewall disabled.

Is there any way to do this in CMSF?

I was pretty sure they said they were planning on doing East Front in the next 1-2 years after Normandy, Commonwealth, Nato and Bulge. Now you've got me scared

Man I want East Front so bad. Normandy is so played out.

Can I fire it off a balcony?

On a related note, can a Kornet not be set up inside a house (looking out through a window)? I don't see a "deploy weapon" button available. Or does it just set up automatically when idle and targeting a vehicle?

I've got another sound mod I'm using can I not use the two in conjunction?

Ok looking over some past threads it looks like this has been brought up before. I really hope we get a working LOOK FOR MINES command that does not require units to run into mines before it works. Pretty broken right now to be honest.

23 views and no one knows ?

Awesome, I'll dl it in a hour then .

Is that radio chatter I hear in this video a mod? Where'd you get it?

In the manual it says there's a "Mark mines" command for engineers but I don't see it... Don't tell me I have to run into a minefield and lose units before I'm allowed to use this command!

Couldn't find this info in the manual.

What about the SPG-9 73 mm HEAT round? Effective against BMPs?

Yeah I just don't like watching an infantry squad get ripped to shreds by an MG that popped up out of nowhere because I don't want to risk driving my IFV right up to the building... But hey, better a few more infantry casualties than the loss of an Abrams or IFV I guess. You've got so much 5.56 ammo in the IFVs I guess I'll just pound into submission ALL the buildings as I advance.

So 50 meters is probably the ideal range for the RPG-7?

I'm playing a PBEM and I'd like to know the general effectiveness/range of RPG 29s and RPG 7s versus BMPs and BRDMs. Thanks!

When a building has a balcony, is there any way to make a unit NOT use it and stay inside and use the windows? (I know you can face away from the balcony and they'll go inside but I want them to face the direction of the balcony)

Will Normandy feature a multiplayer lobby? I hope so, it's kind of impossible for RT multiplayer to really take off until CM features an in game lobby. I think it could help sales too probably, at least with the 18-25 crowd who might not want to be restricted to PBEMs.

I see you can get plenty of 5.56 and 40mm grenades, but but about regular hand grenades?
