  1. Did Ukraine really do this or is this just propaganda?
  2. Does anyone know of any gridded map squares for Final Blitzkrieg? I know there's some for CMBN and CMSF2.
  3. I wouldn't mind being able to level some 155mm artillery at Jar Jar.
  4. Nope. Engineer squad, then an infantry squad to cover them (that hopefully stops before the mines). Then the flails clear the mines. Then the rest of the column follow the flails. (tanks and mechanized infantry). Twice now my infantry were following too close behind and blundered into the mines. I've gotta be more careful.
  5. I don't dare put my flails at the head of the column. Too many Panzershrecks. I've been Moving my engineers, infantry behind them, and flails behind the infantry. I think I'll try putting them on Hunt so they'll stop when they find mines. That's just too darn slow! They give you a bunch of time, but I don't think that'll support crawling across the map.
  6. When Engineers search for mines (like down a road), is it better to use the Move command or the Hunt command. Using the slow command would just be too slow. I'm playing the new British campaign in Final Blitzkrieg and thar be a lot of mines out thar.
  7. Does this effect the game or is that what they do in the real world?
  8. What is the best way to use a 2IC section tactically? Should they be used as security for your Company Commander or as a commander for moral purposes. For that matter, does a company commander increase the moral of the company when they are nearby? How nearby should a leader be for the effects to be felt? Thanks, Probus
  9. I think he just posted here by mistake. He's got another post going in general.
  10. But why? Why is the EU and USA doing that? Don't they know how important this conflict is? Do they not want to see Russia collapse (even at the risk it may cause a major power vacuum)? Why did we 'fight' the Cold War? The hard right was all behind defeating the USSR. Now they've flip-flopped. I just don't get it. All we have to do is provide arms to the Ukrainians. That supports our defense industry. No US servicemen (or women) are being asked to risk their lives. This should be a no-brainer. Is it because of the election year?
  11. Just saw them. Thanks! I was kidding around referring to the Battle of Antonov Airport.
  12. Haven't all the Russian paratroopers been wiped out?
  13. Is there any way to tell if a unit is a core unit when playing a campaign? I haven't noticed any.
  14. I've been playing since approximately 2000. I had the first 2 games. Really enjoyed them. Didn't rediscover the franchise until 2020 when looking for instructions on how to reinstall CMBO. I went crazy over CM2 and within a couple months had all the games and DLC (except Afghanistan). Been my #1 goto game ever since.
  15. Thanks @Erwin, I found a cache of weapons with ranges and armor. Its not complete but it covers most of the equipment. I don't know where I got it either, it was just on one of my hard drives. If anyone has a link to these Silhouettes, please post it.
  16. Did Marco Bergman's ever create any Silhouettes (with ranges) for CMFB?
  17. The Hungarian President resigned! Here comes Sweden into NATO! Wow! He was pressured to resign after pardoning a child rapist/abuser. Imagine that.
  18. I’m at an event and can’t watch this. What exactly did he say? Is he encouraging Russia to attack NATO to get NATO involved to kick Russia’s butt? Or… did he say something really stupid? Never know with him.
  19. I wonder if your right @Erwin. I hope not.
  20. I'm tellin' ya... Wikipedia says 2.5 minutes and as we all know, Wikipedia is always right!
  21. So do you think that Ukrainian generals are running the show or the American/EU generals that are feeding the UA strategic and tactical intelligence?
  22. I'm glad you qualified that. He was kinda in the same position as Yamamoto.
