    Buddy Aid

    in Combat Mission Red Thunder

    Posted

    When one of the soldiers of an AT gun,mortars, Medium Machine guns, etc. (crewed weapons in general) get wounded, the rest of the crew don't give buddy aid.

    I have to use another unit to help the wounded soldier.

    I think it will be great to give the capacity of buddy aid to this crewed units. Please Battlefront, implement this in the future. Thanks

    Maybe there is a reason for this crewed units for not to give buddy aid??? :-S

    Have a good weekend and regards!

    OFF TOPIC: Could some one,please, explain with images. How the soviet echelon tactic works? With images please. I read that they used this tactic during the war, but It's hard to me to understand (visually) how it works in a "modern" war with trenches,bunkers,machineguns, barbed wire, mines, artillery...Etc. It seems me "primitive" and near to the "suicidal"

    And, finally, :-D , how the patch it's doing? Any date?

    I'll try to explain it.

    You have three big folders. One for image, weapons and UI.

    Choose the first folder, for example image. Unzip the folder and choose,for example, the folder "image". Save this folder into "z". Unzip again, you can choose among another folders, for example choose again "plain" and delete the rest of not chosen folders.

    Same for weapons. For example: Weapons-range folder>Save into "z" folder.Unzip and choose one of the folder, for example "plane" (delete the not chosen folders)

    So, create a new folder where to save your choices. Chose the folders you are interested and delete the rest. When you finish, save into the "z" folder in Game/Mods...

    :-S Hope that helps....

    Regards

    I want to kill tanks Antonio Coll's style "echando cojones" :-D

    "Antonio Coll, a republican sailor fighting in the Usera suburb, invented a new anti-tank technique known as “echando cojones al asunto” (basically “with balls”) (Beevor, 1982). Coll threw himself on the ground in the path of three enemy tanks, let them nearly reach him and then threw his bombs. Two were blown up; the third turned tail and fled. Coll was killed, but tanks were no longer seen as invincible."http://balagan.info/carabanchel-a-crossfire-scenario-in-the-spanish-civil-war

    visibility of button toggle in UI

    in Combat Mission Red Thunder

    Posted

    I don't understand why Battlefront doesn't implement some brilliant mods out there.

    In my opinion, the Marco Bergman's weapons range and image, make the game more attractive visually.

    This mod from Juju it's brilliant too. It's not very difficult to see now if the button is toggled or not (after a bit of playing) but with this mod there is no way to get wrong.

    Fuser's (Aris) mods are beautiful too. It will be great to see the vehicles changing their image if they pass through mud, dust, rain... But it's just a dream!

    Please Battlefront, consider to implement some of this useful mods in future. I think it's a big help for players and visually elegant

    Weird tank behaviour.

    in Combat Mission Battle for Normandy

    Posted

    Thanks for all your reponses,in special the one of Ian.Leslie with links to treads to read. I'll read them with care...

    Reading this forums is very important to learn to play. I know, after lot of reading,how to act in theory. Use the infantry first to know enemy position, secondly use the tanks (in C2 with infantry if possible). Use armor cover arcs. How to place the hull of the tank with the last movement, shoot and scout,etc....

    But, I think i'm just an unlucky person (i'm "jinxed"?). The theory is OK, but when I try to put it in practice during the game I get my ass kicked...

    Well, let's continue playing!

    PD: I think my Panzer crew,was victim of an act of sabotage. Americans interfered their radio communications, and played some american rock&roll music... :D

    Best regards

    I'm one of those "lurking" guys you speak here. I read with lot of interest all your post, AAR, blogs, treads: JansonC,Bill Hardemberg, VanisAuf, Womble,etc.

    I learn History, I train my English, It makes me laugh sometimes...This is one of my favourites websites.

    I have the feeling,more I learn, more I realize I don't know nothing.

    With tank combat. First of all, I tried to approach to the enemy giving orders "manually". But, sometimes I went too far, some times I get too short. COnclusion I get blow up.

    Back to read and consulting treads.

    Ok I'll let the computer do the work, but then things like this happens.

    Thanks for all your responses. English is not my native language. Please, don't use difficult words or phrases. I'm still confused.

    How the thing about tanks works?

    It embarrasses me to ask for this,but could you Mr. Billhanderberg (if you read that) explain how the tanks works in your blog?

    Could some one explain it with images or graphics?

    I'm lost.

    Thanks for your responses. Sorry for my English.

    PD: If you want more images or angles ,ask for it. I just want to understand how the thing works...

    I'm not trolling. I just want to understand why this happens. The things I have to do and not to do.

    First of all thanks for the answer Womble.

    I gave the tank an armor cover arc. The tank spoted an enemy tank. Some one inside cries "Ein Panzer!" and tank stops. The turn ends. I have the enemy tank icon.

    You were correct. The line was grey,not blue. I thought It was possible to fire with grey line. It seems my tank is "hulldown" position so I thought it was the best situation for me...

    fgBAJnf.jpg?1

    So...It's better to not fire with a tank with a grey line?I'm still insecure and confused about how the tank combat works

    Anyway, I can't do anything with this kind of situation "tank saying NO"I think I have the worst luck ever playing this game...

    What is the gold / million dollar rule in tank combat?

    Thanks and best regards

    I'm playing a PBEM Campaing. One of my Panzer IVH (veteran) spots an enemy tank at less of 1500 meters. Red fire order. Ok let's see the duel next turn. The surprise came when I saw the turn...

    http://vimeo.com/88776181

    I'm a magnet of this kind of situations? How I can avoid this kind of things? I'm confused I would like to know why things like this happens to avoid the situation again.

    Please, give me some advice or help... I feel stupid...

    Thanks and regards.

    20 mm AA guns, Tanks, and Spotting

    Hi Odin, I'm not saying it's not historically accurate. I'm saying I spotted the Flak 37 first. You say you didn't spot me until the wall got destroyed.

    I put with my tank a fire order on your Flak 37. When the wall falls, I'll be the first to fire (red line order fire) theoretically

    The rest of the tanks and infantry will give fire support.

    Ok,so I spotted first, I have a red line order (target location confirmed), I have infantry and other tanks support to fire at... And....Voilà! The Flak fire first through the smoke cloud (with no fire order), destroy my tank, destroy a second light tank, and the bouncing shells kills my infantry around... OOOOOOUUUU yeah

    I demand help. I would like to know if I planned something wrong. If I forgot to do something or If I could do it better. I'm relatively new player. I have no military instruction. I just love (and sometimes hate) this game. I read the forum and I'm learning a lot, but when things like this happens I'll know why, to not do again the same mistake.

    Thanks and regards!

    Playing MG Boldness Be My Brother against another player.

    One of my tanks have one of those moments "WTF ! LOS / LOF". This time it's me the luky guy with LOS / LOF.

    p><p> <img src=

    The wall finally collapses. Dust.My TC continue with the red line.No charging proces. Just few seconds to dust settle down and fire over the Flak position.

    https://vimeo.com/87391693

    The Flak fires my tank first, through the dust cloud. It suprees my tank,(I continue with the red fire line, but it doesn't return fire) and...The bullets ricocheting kill my GI arround! Niiiiiiice

    I made a video too. I have the impression that if you think a strategy to defeat your opponent you get punished. Maybe those Flak weapons are too powerful...

    When thinks like this happens, they make me hate the game...

    Regards
