Ghost of Charlemagne

I wholeheartedly agree. It would make sense for Battlefront to use their existing models across more titles - they already have T-72 assets in CM:SF2 that could be reskinned and used in an expansion pack for Black Sea. And of course, there's my personal dream title: CM: Operation Unthinkable.

It's been a while since we got any updates about upcoming games and expansions. It's my impression that Fire and Rubble is next and then an expansion for Black Sea, is this so?

Best series of the year. No forced diversity, authentic costumes and actual latin spoken by the Romans.

Part and parcel of living in a country with open borders, and politicians who show greater concern for so-called refugees than the safety of European citizens. These attacks will only become more commonplace as the number of religion-of-peace people keeps growing. Thanks Merkel.

Getting US and Soviet forces in one CM title would be a dream of mine come true. Operation Unthinkable would finally be doable.

The T-62M is still missing its smoke launcher.

The Canadian C-15 (McMillan TAC-50) is still using the wrong ammuntion type. It should be using .50 call but instead it uses the C-14's .338 Lapua Magnum.

CM:SF2 still doesn't have ammo dumps

The Canadian C-15 (McMillan TAC-50) is still using the wrong ammuntion type. It should be using .50 call but instead it uses the C-14's .338 Lapua Magnum.

The TURMS-T in-game lacks a smoke launcher on the left side of the turret.

The smoke launchers on the T-72AV and T-62M models are still missing. How come the T-72AV-TURMS doesn't have smoke launchers?

Which mod is those explosions from?

Could I have the camo helmet texture, pretty please?

This is indeed a missing feature of the CV9035. Another problem is its rate of fire - it should be firing single, two or three round bursts instead of the five or more round bursts it is currently firing. I actually prefer the YPR-765 over CV9035, as the former will exhaust its ammunition too quickly.

Interesting. I don't have have CM: Road to Victory yet so I wasn't able to test any of the units that are new to that module. Can you please test US regular infantry after March 1944 and with excellent equipment and see if they show up?

M1 Garand (w/ M7 Rifle Grenade Launcher) is still missing from the game. It's supposed to be available beginning March 1944 in formations with Excellent equipment quality, yet it doesn't show up in ANY US formation from that time and forward.

I was just playing the first USMC campaign mission and had an F-18 drop two successive bombs on a building that never appeared. I heard the bomb dropping sound but after that nothing happened. The really strange thing is that the very same F-18 (which carries four bombs in this scenario) had previously succesfully dropped two individual bombs on two different buildings, using the medium mission setting and a Forward Observer as a spotter. I know a similar problem has been reported in CMBS, so it might have carried over to CMSF2. Has someone else experienced this, or know why this happened.

Still a bug.

How?

I don't think those fit with the 2008 timeframe.

Here is a compilation of sources to back up my previous post, and some additional reading for those who might be interested. My impressions of the 35mm gun in-game compared to real life are: It expends way too much ammunition (partly due to the 35 round mags not being simulated). It is too inaccurate. The lethality of the KETF round is too low. Regarding ammunition loadout: http://www.baesystems.se/hagglunds/brochure/cv9035markiii.pdf This official source says the typical stowed rounds are 140. Compared to what the guy I talked to said that probably means 140 rounds are carried internally and another 140 can be carried in the external storage box. On ammunition differences: 25mm: https://www.gd-ots.com/munitions/medium-caliber-ammunition/25mm-bushmaster/ A 25mm round weighs 425-500 gr 30mm: https://www.gd-ots.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/11/30x173mm-Ammunition-Suite-MK44-Cannon-Version-3.pdf A 30mm round weighs 670-835 gr. 35mm: http://x8h.net/18f1ce35-723b-49c2-b250-cdd1c195c152.pdf Turkish version of the 35x228mm ABM round, weighs 1750 gr or 1.75 kg. http://www.navweaps.com/Weapons/WNGER_35mm-1000_Millennium.php#ammonote1 The KETF round is a member of the AHEAD familiy. If this source can be trusted the C-RAM version of the AHEAD round weighs 1750 gr or 1.75 kg. Additional reading on 35mm effectiveness in testing: https://ndiastorage.blob.core.usgovcloudapi.net/ndia/2012/armaments/Thursday13673Voorde.pdf Interesting find about the 35mm’s effectiveness, not sure about the validity of the source though. https://apps.dtic.mil/dtic/tr/fulltext/u2/a372821.pdf Very interesting read from the US Army Research Laboratory about the results of 35mm airburst testing. https://ndiastorage.blob.core.usgovcloudapi.net/ndia/2011/gunmissile/Tuesday11786_Bradick.pdf 35mm use against swarm attacks.

I hope it's okay to resurrect this thread rather than create a new one on the CV90. I recently talked to a Danish dude who served on the CV9035DK in Afghanistan, and he told me some interesting things that the game doesn't get right. 1. The CV9035's Bushmaster III gun has two magazines of 35 rounds each, for a total of 70 ready-to-fire rounds. 2. The vehicle has an addition 280 rounds (for at total of 350, and not 210 as in the game.) in ammo storage boxes, unfortunately he didn't specify if all of these extra rounds were stored internally or if some of them were stored in the external storage box on the side of the turret. 3. The extra rounds are linked together in 7-round belts, because of the sheer size and weight of each round - a 25mm round weighs almost a third of a 35mm one. 4. The magazines can be reloaded from inside the vehicle, and the linked and linkless feed system of the Bushmaster III gun means that 7-rounds belts can be quickly fed into the gun mechanism and linked together with 5 more belt as they were feeding. Unfortunately he didn't specify the amount of time it would take to reload all 5 belts. 5. Because of the limited number of ready-to-fire rounds, they would strictly use single rounds, or 5-round bursts against high-priority targets like RPG-gunners or suspected VBIEDs. 6. They had two different automatic firing patterns for 5-round bursts- they could either be fired at the same target or be spread out in a linear pattern. 7. Even with single rounds they were able to hit targets at distances of several kilometers. He stressed that the CV90s had a profound effect on the Talibans willingness to engage Danish or coalition forces in their vicinity.
