Knowing the call times for the on map mortars vs the 105's; would you trade them for more on map mortars?

Which smoke/flames mod are you using @Mord?

I don't know of any, but if you pm me some details I will set up one for you.

I stay logged in on both my android phone and PC running chrome.

Contributions like this help make the game better for us all. Thanks for sharing @DougPhresh. Now if @IanL loses this battle to Bil it will be because his men didn't have the correct optics.

This just happened to me in a pbem I am playing where I am trying to play with all icons off. I lost two AFV's in one turn due to missing some critical information. When I reloaded the previous turn and had icons on.... yeah I wouldn't have given the orders I did. I agree it won't make the game any easier or less frustrating. We have three options right now and if it is easy to add a fourth, and I am not saying it would be, but if it was, it would be fun to have the option.

That is exactly what I am asking for. C2 is so important in game yet we don't actually need to rely on it because we the player can give the information to the units under our command with unrealistic orders. Using your example in a WEGO battle, scouts out front spot a tank. An icon for the tank pops up, your scouts relay the information along the C2 network. End of the turn and you click on your TD to find out if the have contact marker, either way, you can start to issue them orders with the full knowledge, there is a tank in those trees and if they don't have a spot yet, by the time they get into position, they will. With icons off, your scouts spot a tank and relay the info along the C2 network. Turn ends and you issue orders to your TD trusting C2 will have given them the spot by the time they complete their move. But wait, did YOU see the tank? If it is hard to see in the trees is it possible you missed it? Did you see the infantry moving along the fence row to the east instead? Without the icon to warn you, only the enemy you see with your own eyes, will you be able to react to. The TACAI is still going to do its thing. Your units will still fire as they see fit, just certain situations are going to develop where you may have missed key information. Recon, and with your own eyes, will be very important.

Don't worry, my feelings were not hurt.

I would like to have the option to make it more difficult for me to remember where the enemy is at all times. With icons off, I find I miss the flashing notice of when my men are taking losses to much. With spotting contacts on, it can still feel like I am getting access to more information about the enemy than I should and can react in ways that may be considered unrealistic. I feel my icons on and enemy icons off completely would be a happy balance.

Is there a way to turn the floating icons off completely for the enemy, no spotting icons, and leave them on for your troops? I tried cycling through the options in game and I don't think it is possible. If there isn't a way to do this currently, am I the only weirdo who would like to see this added to the game?

My orders are all there, along with the activation codes, however I am missing download links to the Black Sea battle pack, CMBN battle pack and all my CMBN purchases except for engine 3 upgrade. I started CMBN with the commonwealth bundle.

I am not Bil, but to me, AA3 seems the most likely route to take.

It was not my intent at all to start a political discussion but rather explain what I thought was a great joke. Sorry for derailing this thread. @IanL Does Bil have any advantages over you with terrain he controls at the start of the battle? In your analysis, you stated there is some high ground out of your setup areas. Is it close enough to allow you a chance to rush a small protection force there or do you have a different plan to prevent Bil from using it?

And the explanation from The National Post https://nationalpost.com/news/politics/sajjan-retracts-claim-he-was-architect-of-canadas-biggest-combat-operation-in-afghanistan Are you sure you are Canadian @IanL? You didn't know Rush band members, never watched Trailer Park Boys, missed the Sajjan meme craze... do you even know what Tim Hortons is????

Yes it is. It was on the repository but not TSD3

LOL!!!! That was great. Wonder who all will get that joke. Going to do this for my next battle just for S'n'G. If I could up vote you twice for that one, I would.

Quality over Quantity but Quantity has a Quality all it's own. Or something like that. Hope it works out for you.

Is there much of a point difference between the C2 and the C2A6M? Why did you decide to go with the C2?

Hope you have a speedy recovery.

Knowing nothing about a modern Combat Team, what would the make up of this Combat Team be? I tried to zoom in on the image to see what the blue unit markers represented but they are too small to see clearly.

I tried to watch it two nights ago. The version I saw was dubbed over in English and the actors were terrible. I too got about 15 minutes or so in to the movie and turned it off. They appear to have an impressive line up of AFV but I couldn't get past the wooden dialogue.

Thanks @Pete Wenman not too sure how I missed it in the first thread. I don't own CMSF1 so am glad to see there will be bundles available.

Will there be a big bundle with the base game and all the modules available right away?

I I should have known better as I had pretty much the same issue on my laptop when I first upgraded to 4.0. But with today being fathers day and having some free time, i upgraded the desktop to 4.0 to play the game on the big screen in 4k glory.

And problem solved. Installed the 4.0 upgrade to the wrong folder.
