This is a user to user help forum so you cannot be sure that @BFCElvis will see your post. I recommend opening a ticket with support - then you know he will see it: Battlefront Help desk

Yeah oddly enough regular PBEM++ seem to work differently than tournaments. For tournaments the turns disappear from my list once I play them. For a regular PBEM++ match they remain but the Fight button (or is it continue I don't remember) is greyed out.

Yes, for sure the SF2 game is winding down. The Snow for the Hungry PBEM file is available in our Dropbox folder. You can pick it up and drop it in CMRT's incoming folder and away we go - again.

Well as a good commander you will of course value your special weapons teams since they have valuable skills and are hard to replace. So, you likely have a standing order that they withdraw to the rear once they are out of ammo so as to not risk loosing them to enemy fire.

@Vacillator has it correct. The only other tactic you can use is tag the mod and use that tag in the scenario you want but that's really only good for scenario authors or people willing to crack open the scenario editor.

It's a side effect of a fix for a worse problem. In an earlier release if you gave a mortar team a target command they would start to aim the mortar but the guys doing nothing would fire away with their small arms. This had a tendency to expose the mortar team's location and was generally viewed as a bad thing(tm). They will fire their small arms on their own but at close distances than normal infantry because the mortar team is tasked only with local defence of the gun. Moral of the story don't use mortar teams as infantry.

The author has to make them but the option is there. There can be 5 and you can control it s the likely hood of getting them is equal for all or some are favoured over others.

Definitely not learning but there can be multiple AI plans for each scenario so it could be that you are up against a different AI plan that happens to be a good counter to your initial moves.

It cleared up by this morning. I successfully played turns this morning. Clearly some kind of server problem.

I'm looking for the mod that @Majestic12 mentioned "SmartWargames's African forces mod". Does anyone know where I can find it? I looked on CM Mods IV and I don't see it. A general google search only served up this thread.

I love when the host asks for an example of information the US got from spying and the guy points to the mood of the troops and their plans. She knows that's going no where good for her narrative and cuts him off by saying "The mood is good and our plans are big..." I find that even more funny than the other clip which ends with one guy telling off the first for stating that the Russian army has taken more casualties than the Ukrainians. But overall yes loads of fun.

Not to mention the RA just had to lie about the casualty count and regular folk could not really be sure who was giving the correct numbers but if you control territory there is no lying about it that will stick. Sure you can fib about a few blocks here or there but when the press are entering liberated towns and villages and talking to people about their experience under Russian occupation there's no amount of lying the Russians can do that will fool regular folk about who controls what.

It is currently not in a perfect state. It's drifted out of date and all theBlitz links go to a domain for sale site because we lost our domain and had to retool to .org. If you use my site just edit the url to use .org instead of .com for any theBlitz links.

Oh fantastic. Drew is back, you owe me a couple of turns buddy More serious I like that someone else is trying these out. I'll have to look at them too.

It's the same exe so play either one. I play the BFC installs and participate in PBEM++ and tournaments no problem.

Sounds like a job for the professionals: Battlefront Help desk

That last one looks pretty good.

These arguments sound more like pretext than real arguments… Call it whatever you like. Steve has stated before that they have no plans to open up the vehicle and weapons systems' attributes for tweaking. His justification is two fold: On the business side they want to be the one's making content for the game and they want it to be as historically accurate as possible. Having to compete with people that didn't develop the game would not be in their interest. Having to allow people that think <insert favourite uber tank here> should be the uberest would suck (not just for them). Their game, their market, their call. On the technical side they don't want the support headaches or to fracture the multi player community. People playing head to head are a small group in a niche market if there were also 15 different fan mods for basic kit there would probably be just two guys left playing.

When the margins are that close a malicious actor can actually change the outcome. The thing is even if they fail to "get the result" they still win because they have sewn division that doesn't go away. Spending time managing those divisions takes time away from paying attention to said malicious actor.

Good. I found OBS a little confusing at first but once you have it setup it just works the next time. Good luck

Are you streaming from a phone filming the screen? It sure looks like it. Try OBS: https://obsproject.com/ it will let you directly stream your desktop combined with other inputs if you want no phone involved.

And even if it didn't push enough people to get over 50% they would have been close and the divisions would have remained a raw point in UK politics: Whatever Russia spent would still have been well invested. As a Canadian I hate to think what a separation referendum would be like if it were held today instead of 1995. <shudder>

No, he said don't worry be happy and stop listening to over blown concerns raised by right wing looneys.

Now that is poetry. Sad poetry but that usually is the best kind.

Thanks I'll look for each of these and make sure they are in the list. Thanks
