    In all titles, there is a smallish chance that the weapon of the KIA/WIA soldier is itself damaged and it wont then be recovered by buddy-aid. ( no, you can't tell in advance ;) )

    Oh!Thanks for the info. Just bad luck...

    yes, it is possible.  Try this - but make sure there are no fences, heges or walls near by :) 

    LOL

    I did not want to storm into the house, because there was, maybe, enemy soldiers in the other building, and the breach team would be wiped out. Finally, I had to use this one...

    I test again with a diagonal command and it worked. But the team ends exposed both sides of the house

    Just behind the wall or parallel (they finished exposed), the wood fence was blow up ...

    ? what do you mean?  Do you want a hot key to hide the falling snow?  Or something else?

    I like play WEGO, and during the order phase, you can spend a lot of time giving orders...So many time with the snow effect it's a bit annoying...On the other hand, for the realtime player, I think it's more inmersive...

    I gave the order to break the wall of this house with a demo charge. Not inside, but outside the house (to not get in it) and... They blasted the wood fence... LOL

    And the second member of the sniper team didn't recover the sniper rifle of his injured comrade. Mmmm...

    Will be in the future a key to turn on / off the snow effects ?

    CM Final Blitzkrieg - AXIS (Attack) BETA Battle Report

    in Combat Mission Final Blitzkrieg

    Posted · Edited by Vencini
    colour

     

    Naturally a nearby man took a splinter :angry: Those teams don't have an MG42 man, so it was the leader 

    I have the feeling, leaders get hit often by HE shrapnel or splinters...They're magnets for this kind of damage too

     

     

    good luck in your game and thanks for the AAR

    Regards

    Did they change the colour of the setup phase ? It's no more that ultra-red? I like it...

    CMMG

    Hello gentlemen

     

    CMBN fighting in bocage

     

    CMFI : hills and  abrupt terrain

    CMMG : urban combat

     

    CMRT: forest

     

    and...

     

    CMFB : cold environment

     

    So my question is: could you share some recommendations for this type of terrain ?Good links to read ?

     

    For example, c3K recommends "His tanks need to stay back...in roads". There are another things to keep in mind?

     

    Tactics to fight into cold environments? Advantages and disadvantages ?

     

    Some advices from veterans players of CM games will be much appreciated.

     

    Sorry for the off topic. Didn't want to open a new tread

     

    Thanks for answers and help

     

    Regards

    Vehicle embarking problem

    in Combat Mission Battle for Normandy

    Posted

    I want two different groups of soldiers to mount into a truck. Even if there are enough places for both, one of them never embark. I have to use two turns to mount them on.

    PBEM CMBN game. It's the latest version, except vehicle pack.

    Sorry for using this post. I didn't want to open a new post.

    It's easy to reproduce. It's a known issue ?

    Regards

    The Titanium Bunker

    in Combat Mission Fortress Italy

    Posted · Edited by Vencini
    regards

    I came across another example of MG bunker (concrete) not getting suppressed. I had two Shermans pounding a bunker head on for five minutes, explosions going off every second or two, along with Sherman MGs. And still the bunker crew calmly picked off infantry targets some 300 m away in the open. I just doesn't seem right. I'm ok with the bunker not getting knocked out, but if I was part of a crew having explosions head on like that, I sure wouldn't man the MG any time soon. Let alone hitting targets with ease.

     

    I'm going to do some more testing.

    Hello, another  Titanium / Adamantium bunker here.

    I remembered read a tread about that and finally I found it. I'm doing a test scenario for a person and we have found this behavior too...

     

    CMFI with the last 3.0 patch updated. German paratroopers inside (it's an scenario about Ortona) Incoming Sherman fire from laterals and front, during, at least, five minutes. I stopped to preserve ammunition. WP mortar rounds, MG fire and still the soldiers inside return fire.

     

    Any news about that ?

    Best regards

    Crew members as recon

    in Combat Mission Battle for Normandy

    Posted

    Hello all

     

    Talking about vehicle crews...I have a question about soft vehicle drivers...

     

    I'm playing an email game with another person. I'm in a desperate scenario and I'm using the truck drivers as snipers.

     

    The problem is when I try to mount them again. They can only  do that in their OWN vehicles... I'll like to mount them in no matter what soft vehicle...Or maybe take notes about which driver goes in which truck..

    .

    It's an abstraction about taking the vehicle keys ?   :P

     

    Oh! Any news about next game or modules ? Screen shots ? Twich TV ?

     

    Best regards and thanks !

    BUG? Wind Direction

    in Combat Mission Red Thunder

    Posted

    The weather is represented? For example: the sun rises in the east and sets in the west?
     
    The latitudes are represented in different countries and seasons? (In Russia there is less sun in winter than in summer. In Africa more sun in summer ...)
     
    You can do this with the map editor?
     
    Yes. I am a weather Grog...   :P

    The future of user made scenarios – and the lack of community feedback

    in Combat Mission Red Thunder

    Posted

    I get discouraged when I start an scenario with lots of units from the beginning. I love when I start with few units (CMx2 micromanagement it's very funny) and then, reinforcements arrive in waves.

     

    Most of medium and big scenarios stars with lots of units and it's hard to manage for not "hard core" players. Same for campaigns.

     

    Anyway thanks all people out there who makes scenarios for the community. Will love in future more scenarios and campaigns "start with few units"

     

    Regards
