  1. Maybe, but that was definitely not what happened in my case, where my troops where actively and purposefully engaging their comrades on their own.
  2. YES! I've seen this happening just a few days ago in CMFI as I described above. I saw 3-4 FF incidents in that battle, all of them small arms (rifles and even pistols) and all of them without area fire. Only one of those FF incidents resultet in a casuality though and this one was caused by a Carcano bolt action rifle (8mm).
  3. v2.11 non-steam It wasn't the first time I've seen friendly fire with small arms (and without area fire), but never before did I see it happen that often in a single battle.
  4. I've witnessed several small arms friendly fire incidents in a night battle playing the Italian forces in CMFI just yesterday. It was the first mission of the "Fleeting Moment" campaign and there it happened several times that some troops opened fire with their rifles on their comrades. I guess this can happen if they are out of comms, which can happen quite easily with the Italians and their lack of radios. Just to be clear: No area fire commands where used when the friendly fire incidents happened. One of the incidents was at pretty close range even, when my company commander opened fire on one of his subordinates using his pistol! After one of my troops got killed by one of his comrades I tried to reduce friendly fire by assigning fire arcs to all my troops, to prevent them to shoot in the direction of friendly forces. It certainly makes night battles "more interesting".
  5. Uhm, real time multiplayer over the internet is already available in all the current CM games?!
  6. It's definitely not Germany. I think it's Sweden. Edit: It is indeed Sweden in 2001:
  7. I just heard the news and I'm absolutely stunned that this is actually happening now!! Thank you @Battlefront.com for making this dream of me a reality! I preordered right away
  8. This is actually my preferred choice for MP battles, but it is really missing the ability to rewind the action, as you can in SP. I would be so glad if that ability would be added!!
  9. Same problem here. Game crashes after about an hour of gameplay or so. I have this problem since I swapped my Radeon for a Nvidia RTX 2080...
  10. The german Gebirgsjäger only use it for operations in very difficult terrain (usally snow). I doubt it would be used in Syria. They would rather use the Fuchs (or the GTK Boxer nowadays) in that environment. Afaik it has not been used in any combat operation by the Bundeswehr, but the British Royal Marines have used it quite a lot in Afghanistan, even in combat.
  11. Yes, either August or September.
  12. This match was really fun to follow (on both sides) and taught me one or two things as well. Well done! Any chance for a rematch between you two?
  13. I wonder why? The comms link is up, so information should get passed along?
  14. Same here. Paradox-version with all 3 modules.
  15. As well as the MAN gl series, ranging from 5t to 15t: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MAN_KAT1
  16. Thanks, I have indeed never really noticed that! I really enjoy your AARs btw, they are well made and great fun to follow!
  17. Did I understand that correctly, the stock sound icons do differ between tanks and armored vehicles? If so, then they are indeed damned hard to decipher as I've never noticed such a difference.
  18. Aren't these custom icons some kind of cheating as they give you an unfair advantage by giving you more information than the game is supposed to give you (e.g. specifying if a sound contact is a tank or light armor)?
  19. The german Tigers were not ready in 2008 as we were behind the french in achieving combat ready status for our Tigers.
  20. That is an unfair assessement of the Bo105 PAH, which is a dedicated anti tank helicopter that is only beeing used in that specific role!
  21. The PzFst3 is unguided in that sense that its projectile is not guided on its way to its target, unlike ATGMs. Besides that, the laser equipped PzFst3 is a special variant of the PzFst3 and is VERY rare in german service. I've never actually seen one myself. Are the germans in CMSF2 really equipped with that variant? The standard PzFst3 (without a laser range finder) is still pretty accurate to ranges of up to 400m. I'm speaking from personal experience here
  22. Which is all what was needed. Getting some intel about what is going on from time to time about what's going on is all I can ask for, so thank you very much for this thread and the new forum. I really appreciate that, because it helps a lot with waiting, if you have at least some idea of what is actually happening or going to happen. So again, thank you!
  23. This! If you don't want to expand your business in any way, for the reasons mentioned, then it would be really great if you could give us some small updated on how what's beeing done once a month or so. That would make it much easier for (some of) us to keep the patience and not start threads like this
  24. We here in germany still put much emphasis on camoing our combat vehicles. Recent pics from our Panzergrenadiers deployed to Lithuania:
