Thanks guys!

Hi guys! After a long hiatus I want to get involved with the CM community again and I want to make a Campaign AAR Series. Now I found out my old image hoster Photobucket has taken my old pictures hostage and a paywall installed. So I need a good reliable and free (I am literally poor) image hoster, any suggestions? Cheers Morbo

LOL, I deleted that part of my post because I didn't want to hijack the thread. Sorry!

I think that was not on purpose. It was on Peleliu IIRC. The reason for the overstating of kills was, at least in part, due to the extremely confused nature of the battle and the fact that the US overkilled the light Japanese tanks so extremely that it was impossible to count the wrecks afterwards. They had litterally been shot to pieces. @ John Kettler: Yeah, it was an astounding feat. I read about it in the Osprey Volume coveringOperation Nordwind. Also very informative second video! Military (non)visualized is a really good channel despite the hideous German accent that

I just started playing the Canadian campaign. There I experienced this, too. Spotter was a 'veteran' FO with a laser designator, Aircraft was an F/A-18 D with iron bombs, target was a single house designated as point target, It had nothing to do with the aforementioned theories: there was no AA, no other aircraft interferring, target was in perfect sight and painted with a laser, target was in the middle of the map. Two passes, two bombs dropped - no effect.

Thanks, Ithikial! You saved me from getting mental at some point in the near future - I had just started "The Khabour Trail" in its old version. Would have been a bad suprise... Good idea, will check! Update: The NATO module campaigns are NOT in the master installer as of yet.

Hi guys! Long time no see. I just bought CMSF 2 upgrade, on 17.12.2019. My question is: are all remade campaigns included already, or do I need to download this one (and maybe others)? By the way, to have CMSF 2 now is adream come true. 🥰 Cheers Olf

Linky Linky?

Cool! I just had a CMBN Battle wher this issue first showed itself in all its horror (been playing more CMSF lately) and am happy to see it is already adressed. Thank you guys!

Yeah, I got you on your first point. My point, why I like this movie, is that older movies often show a sanitized kitsch-version of what I read in peronal war-memoirs and certain historical works. Not so 'Fury'. A common statement of front-line soldiers was and is, that they expected war to be bad but are shocked at how gross it really is. This movie tries not to be nice to any audience group and that is good. It shows incidents which I call realistic after all I learned about war. About racism - I am German, so I don't care about racism in the US that much. But thank you for the movie-ti

Being virtuous and inspirational three months after the expected end of the war (christmas), the Huertgen Forest and the Battle of the Bulge was quite difficult for the front line soldiers one might think... Saving Private Ryan is a hate-fest against Germans.

Hi Sly! A great scenareio indeed! Played it as Germans against a dude from "The Blitz" and he whacked the hell out of me. After 2/3 of the time I was so desperate about my grave losses that I thought "To hell with it, I just storm the first objective and call a CF afterwards!" I knew, I would loose with only one objective under control. But I just couldn't take it to have lost so many dudes without even reaching the first village. When I did, all of a sudden my opponent called a surrender - I won. He couldn't take it anymore to see his units getting shredded... Intense.

Haven't written something in a long time... Even though I will propably get a lot of Flak for it, here's my 2 cents about Fury: Basically I think they got the look and feel, as well as the psychology quite well depicted. The tactical situations are outright crap. On the upside is of course the production design, which is detailed to the max - it depicts a US Army which is fed up with war and worn out from unexpected losses. Thus the rag-tag appearance. Then there is the psychology, which from my stand point is pretty well depicted. What some here call clichés is real

More the other way around: 'Surrender' is in the game and ''Retreat' would be new. Surrender counts your entire Command lost and no ground objectives achieved. Retreat would give you no points for ground objectives but would give you points for force preservation. In real-life force-preservation is often very sensible and important, even paramount in western armies, unless 'fight to the last' orders are out.
