sounds like a great feature.

Hey all you grogs and whatnot... Have a safe and happy holiday. Take care.

I had to add more AT guns and Shrek teams. That initial smoke screen makes the first village a cake walk for the soviets

Speedy recovery

I try designing scenarios. I'm not terribly good at it.

nice. want to see it.

Welcome to our bizzare world of grogdom and absurdity. Red Thunder is great for historical correctness. Download the demo and play for a while, then buy the full game.

Having tried to force my poor Russians through that map, I agree that they likely hated it. Suffice to say I was only able to take the first line, and at heavy cost.

the hat took about 30 minutes. the tunic about 3 hours... spread over a few days.

Here's a hand.. I found it in the alley out back.

Over $200.oo american... so $300.oo Canadian. I rather like my parts, so will not be selling any spare kidneys to by this tome. That said, a lotter win might get me to buy it.

The stupidity continued under new names. Bustard Hunt, Blau, Zitadel, etc etc... But Barbarossa was dead

Anything Soviet with a 45 mm, 57 mm, or 76.2 mm gun.

And it's back. And I'm learning to HATE Tinypic Comments and hate mail welcome

I was philosophizing over beer, when it occurred to me that the Italian campaign was a continuation of the African campaign. Africa was of course the big event for England, that island of bad weather and worse food. Standing as it does between the happy union of Scotland and Wales. Montey's Desert Rats. The birth of the SAS. A million cheesy b&w movies about pudgy sargents and cheerfull poms, baking in the Sahara sun, but never seeming to tan. The next expansion pack for the Mediterranean ought to be further south. In Africa. Lets see if BFC can swing this. Montey's 8th army vs Rommel's DAK. Lets see it happen

So I've been testing the Italians a fair bit recently. They have shortcomings, but I find that if played right they can be quite effective. What does anybody else think of them?

Boobs. And the ability to import units from a saved game. In CMX1 I used this to turn many a QB into a prolonged campaign.

Russia was more of a meatgrinder, but i find that i can still keep infantry casualties within reason. There is less cover, and so you have to be more carefull.

Set them up according to organic groupings. Set all squads and attached sections of a platoon together . Group all platoons of a company together. All companys of a battalion together. Take your time, and think about what formations you have... and where you are sending them.

I made a smock. I didnt think much about what it would look like. I ended up with this...

Never seen it.

great series.

Welcome to our bizzare little corner of insanity

Anybody know this one? https://youtu.be/YHfk6wtQmvc I cant speak russian, so i'm rather lost

Ok, I'll accept that
