modules and weapons packs
Ghost of Charlemagne replied to esco7800's topic in Combat Mission Black Sea
I really hope they'll add the BMPT-72 "Terminator" in a future module. Would love to see this beast tear through some infantry and IFVs. -

I would really like a link to this video. -
Does CMBS create a first for forum discussion?
Ghost of Charlemagne replied to Macisle's topic in Combat Mission Black Sea
Hopefully they will be able to settle their quarrels without real-life bloodshed. -
Missing modules
Ghost of Charlemagne replied to lordhedgwich's topic in Combat Mission Shock Force 1
Me four, happened yesterday. Had to reinstall the modules, and tell Avast to keep its' dirty false positive fingers out of my CMSF folder. -
Wow, those tanks sure aren't looking too good. The T-64 and the T-72 made up the Soviet two-tank strategy. The T-64 was the advanced tank which equipped elite divisions (Guards), while the T-72 was meant to be the mainstay of the tank fleet equipping regular tank divisions and motor-rifle divisions. Later on the T-80 replaced the T-64 as the most advanced tank in Soviet army, while the T-72 remained a "mainstay-tank" (and export tank). I believe the T-72 wasn't produced in Ukraine, only the T-64 and T-80, and that is the reason why the Ukrainians didn't continue using them. Damn, Sergei - you beat me to it.

AFAIK Ukraine only uses T-64s and T-80s, though they do have some 1000+ T-72s in storage.

Any Chance of A Move to Asia?
Ghost of Charlemagne replied to db_zero's topic in General Discussion Forum
Sure their tanks are getting better, but still use "license-built" versions of the Russian 125 mm 2A46M/2A46M-5 gun and their ERA is also copied from the Russian Relikt and Kontakt-5. BTW, Is that a type 96A/G or a type-99 MBT? -

How do you install those sounds? -
Question about ISIS's tactics
Ghost of Charlemagne replied to Ghost of Charlemagne's topic in Combat Mission Shock Force 1
Oh, didn't properly read the last bit of your post, so misunderstood your meaning. Well, yeah I guess you are right - they do seem pretty well trained and equipped for a "new" player in the ME, seeming coming out of nowhere. What would Oman's interest in ISIS actions be? Don't know if war in the ME would be a good thing. We still need their oil. And if Israel somehow got dragged into such a war, the west would have to intervene. Could that ME specialist say anything about how ISIS operates on a tactical level. I mean small groups of men in technicals hardly seem like an all conquering force? -
Question about ISIS's tactics
Ghost of Charlemagne replied to Ghost of Charlemagne's topic in Combat Mission Shock Force 1
This puzzles me as well. They had tanks, artillery and other good stuff, but they seem to have just melted away. Honestly thought the US had trained them better. -
What is it that has made them so successful? Can someone explain their tactics?

How do you get the AI's troops to stay in place when creating your own mission? -
Status update on "Black Sea"
Ghost of Charlemagne replied to Battlefront.com's topic in Combat Mission Shock Force 1
So no twitch stream this weekend. Could this be an indication of extreme busyness due to imminent release? -

The poor Iraqis during Desert Storm called it Steel Rain. -
Combat footage from Ukraine
Ghost of Charlemagne replied to Dim's topic in Combat Mission Shock Force 1
I like Vice too, though I think they are a bit biased towards the Ukrainians. The people at Stratfor also believe things aren't going too well for the Ukrainians. -
Combat footage from Ukraine
Ghost of Charlemagne replied to Dim's topic in Combat Mission Shock Force 1
Sorry to be an ass, but those are not 300mm BM30s, but 220mm BM27s. The reason why I know that for a fact is that the Ukrainians don't have BM30s, only BM27s. -
Iraqi Special Forces vs ISIS
Ghost of Charlemagne replied to John Kettler's topic in Combat Mission Shock Force 1
Brave guys, those Humvees are not going to protect them from RPGs and IEDs. Am I correct that the Iraqis are using the M1A1M which has downgraded armour and fire control system? What else is downgraded? -

What do you think of close combat??
Ghost of Charlemagne replied to Squallion's topic in General Discussion Forum
Really like the explosions, but that's about it - on all other levels CM wins!
