Are you kidding, I’m the first to comment? Lol, 11 minutes and no one else has jumped on this?

American General: Sieg Heil!

Monty: Sure. Wait....what?

It's not a hobby but more like a duty.

Elvis, that means I’m going to be mercilessly vilified. But thanks for the info. 

From the CM Manual, Artkin:
You are all allowed one mistake, after which Wart’s will vilify you mercilessly. And may God have mercy on your damned soul!

Agreed, Warts.

Your thoughts are my thoughts, Mr. Rice.👍👍

All I know is when my enemy has tigers they are rolling pillboxes of endless death and mayhem.  When I have tigers they are fragile little butterflies.  Though once I blundered into one in a nice little Norman town w a terribly under-gunned churchill -- but first shot broke the tigers gun.  I spent the next 10 minutes chasing the tiger around all of northern France and blasting it w that dreadful Churchill 75 until I finally got them to bail.

John it is good manners to thank people who try to help you. You didn't read the Engine 4 manual 20 years ago because it didn't exist. Both the Engine Manual and the Game Manual are provided to all of us when we buy the game. If you can't be arsed reading the Engine Manual that is your fault, no one else's.

Actually, His Dead Puritanical Majesty is my major source of culture and example of how to proper talk right good.  I was actually mesmerized (horrified?) by the videos he linked where some crazy bald fat dude sang about his new 'motor' and his Doc Martin boots.
Maybe it was middle of the night in Blighty and his mind was obforscated or some such.

Lol, danfrodo, it’s good to know I’m not the only one. My favorites are trying to figure out what band he’s talking about! But, as for the piss poor response above, you have to consider the poor guy has been dead for a very long time. Dull’s the mind a bit, I reckon.

Reorganizing is maybe a better word, but you are reorganizing your teams, and therefore, the squad. It will maybe be clearer if you think of your squad as two or three elements that are reorganizing by combining. That work?  The combining of a squad is automatic, the reorganizing is done with the combine command.

No, you can only combine teams from the same squad. It’s really straightforward, John. As Khalerick showed graphically and I tried in writing, each infantry squad in the game either has 2 or 3 teams. When those get shot up and lose men, you may want to combine them, making them stronger but at the cost of losing flexibility (can no longer split that combined squad). By the way, in a three team squad, you can combine two teams without having the third one in the same square, thereby turning a 3 team squad into a two team one.

Besides soft factors, it depends on how many grenades the section/team, whatever, has.  I seem to get plastered about as often as I do the plastering. It does work a charm (usually) when close assaulting buildings.

what?  that's it?? that's all the Dead Puritan has?  No obscure 80s UK music thing we don't understand?  No obscure UK history thing we don't understand?  No references to other UK things we can't even categorize because we have no idea what he's talking about at all?  This is a great disappointment.

When reading his comments I sometimes have the feeling I don't speak English at all.

Never paid attention, but you sure about that, Artkin? I recall being charged when the game is announced ready for purchase. Don’t care either way, since it’s a voluntary thing.

Seems to work better if you move both separated units into a new square. Not always the best choice, but in the rare cases when it has happened to me, that worked.
