You're right about the panic being contagious issue... as will be shown... Once the occupation begins, if Willy is lucky and ends up in the American Zone, he might be the nucleus of a Baseball team!

I won't be turning to Santa Anna for tips, Bil! As you'll see, I have the farm. It's just very uncertain if I can keep it... I'm delighted you're still looking in. I am working on a series now that will take us just past half the 30 minutes in the battle.

Just a final panel before the major series coming up...

I'm using CMH with you, and it works perfectly. As you say only chat is missing from your app. And some else I'm playing with has no turn file manager at all. I just told him to ignore the chat files in the dropbox. So far no problems at all.

Thanks for the info guys. As always you gave me more than I asked for and I appreciate it.

I can't recall seeing this ever discussed so forgive me if this is a known thing. Does the game (CMBS here, but CM in general) simulate the effects of weapons like the .50 cal Barrett and others in their use in shooting out sensors, optics and the like? Is there a point in ordering a sniper to shoot at a tank, in other words?

Looks really lovely!

Worse yet, this is the 11th minute out of 30... A bit early to lose this much vital stuff!

At this point I was starting to lose confidence in my chances of winning - even with Hirsch's first squad at the farm, I lost my leader, and the infantry gun, plus another man, and had half my force in a panic, in the span of about ten seconds...

That must be the summertime air-conditioning package!

Tank terror was common in 1939-1940. But by 1944, I think the tank is the one with more cause to be afraid than the infantry when it comes to close encounters. Unless the tank is an M4A3E8 with Fury on the barrel

Sober or not, I'm looking forward to seeing these marvellous new maps you make!

Kohl seemed to have moved his HQ near the gravesite. It was a risky move but I think it paid off, as I gave his command element a central position on the nap and likely decent C&C to most of his force. You'll see how that develops shortly...

Next time I'll wear my reading glasses....lol. Getting old sucks. I've got 178 as well. Could have sworn it was 70. Still, I'm up for recommendations to expand the repertoire.
