Yeah we do not have clarity about how the game actually handles things internally and i would agree that some of the close explosion effects seem surprising but the long range hits seem fine to me. The kind of long range casualties described are infrequent.

Mostly what @womble said, except that newly added formations do not appear in existing scenarios. I am pretty sure that was a typo or brain fart. Each of the formations have their own unique availability dates and those formations added in later modules will be available to scenario authors and quick battles as appropriate.

I'll check. I don't change those settings so I will have to check. I think we can agree that those white blobs are not correct

Humm I am not sure if that is wrong or not.

For some reason i am only figuring it out now that in the UK you have your ceremonies on the Sunday before the 11th. Not sure how i missed that. We have outs on the 11th.

I prefer option B. I am certainly not against option A by any means and i would like to try out a multi player battle but just for logistical reasons I would prefer more one person battles. So, i guess that really is both .

Yes, their motivation is important to that decision.

Can i ask what graphics card you guys have? Mine is a GTX760. Also @rocketman are seeing the same dark holes as @Paulus or nothing at all?

Yeah, close range any SMG is nasty. It sounds like you did pretty much the right thing. The trick is to keep the suppressive fire going the whole time your men are approaching. If you can cordinate it right and not have your men effected by the supporting fire they will finish him off without additional casualties. From the last enemy soldier's point of view your men just killed his mates and he is pissed. And trapped because running away from the cover would be disastrous. Sometimes they will surrender and sometimes they will extract payment in pixel blood.

Yeah i was wondering about that title. I use his mods and have not noticed missing hit decals. it do not check after every hit but when i do they are there.

Here is the link to my out of date icons.http://cmmodsiii.greenasjade.net/?p=2253

Not sure if you mean mine but it is out of date now. No AA guns, no flame throwers etc. I belive it is still on the new CNMODS site I'll see if I can find the link. I am not keeping it up to date because i don't like how it does not work with mixed national forces due to the shares icons for HQs, FOs and snipers.

Super, I am glad you like them

Don't let managing the op layer worry you. I am have played a couple of battles in one campaign and am on deck in an other. Commanding a battle group in a CM battle in the contex of an operation is lots of fun and adds an extra dimension. So even if you dont get involved in op layer you can still contribute and have lots of fun.

Nice start. It is good to get some hits in early to slow him down a bit.

Thanks that's good to know.

Thanks guys. After I got my own web site fixed up I made sure they were all on the new CMMods site and found that some were not so definitely a worth while exercise. Perhaps that will mean a few more people will try them out.

First post on the forum and it is about a new scenario you are designing! Excellent and welcome. You just discovered the repository too but you just discovered something that is going to be phased out. There is an announcement at the top of the forum: http://community.battlefront.com/announcement/18-new-repository-and-opponent-finder/ with the full explanation. New mod site: http://cmmodsiii.greenasjade.net/ and the scenario site: http://www.thefewgoodmen.com/tsd3/ but most relevant to you at this moment might be the proving grounds for help testing scenarios: http://www.thefewgoodmen.com/tpg2/

I created a place for where you can find all my mods, maps and scenarios. Don't worry I'm still going to be posting things to http://cmmodsiii.greenasjade.net/ and http://www.thefewgoodmen.com/tsd3/ I just wanted there to be a place where you can find everything. While I was setting the page up I noticed a few icon mods never got added to CMMods so I did that too. Check out http://www.lesliesoftware.com/mods/ for the whole list.

Now you are talking! But alas as you said it would die before it started because that border redrawing exercise would need to include a few more countries to make it work - Turkey and Iran to name two for sure. Not to mention that any border redrawing would have to be based on what was good for the local populations not some other agenda. Last time any borders were redrawn in that area the locals were totally ignored and the other agendas ruled. I personally think that border rearrangement is the only way things might settle down long term. Border rearranging has historically not been very pleasant. I do wish there was a way to do something that would take the pressure off the refugees. I personally thought that a no fly zone over the entire Syria would help a lot. Mind you if we thought that was hard to get done before, now it would be politically much harder. Well I agree that ISIS's method of rule is not sustainable I am not so sure it would collapse in the near term. I look at the radical actions taken by the Republican Guard in Iran after its revolution and how its activities have been moderated in the years that followed. What I am getting at is once you institutionalize your violence against citizens it does not need to be as brutal, frequent or chaotic. I think ISIS would do the same - if it succeeds which has yet to be determined. As for Gulf states having influence over ISIS via funding - I think that ship has sailed. The leader of ISIS was pretty crafty and took their funding after his break with Al Qaeda but his real goal was to create his own nation state. As such he created alternate sources of funding and no longer really needs it from his original backers. One of the complications in this whole mess is that while other groups of fighters are truly proxies for other nations ISIS is not. You probably mean the US lead bombing of ISIS. The refugee crisis is exacerbated by the bombing that Assad has been conducting - it would be good if that were to stop.

In the quick battle screen you can set the Unit Purchase to automatic for both sides and then neither you nor your opponent can choose your own forces.
