Kampfgruppe Peiper Campaign
Warts 'n' all replied to Aragorn2002's topic in Combat Mission Final Blitzkrieg
An interesting read. I've started playing this campaign again recently. It's the third time I've played it since CMFB came out. I don't do "restarts" if I lose I just record my defeat and move on to another campaign or battle. I love the map, it is a joy to fight over, even when the amis are killing my pixeltruppen. -

A nice series of pictures. Not so good for your men. -
It is certainly easier playing as the Russians.

It is such a long time since I played this battle. I checked my records and only managed a high casualty Minor Victory as the Germans. Having just fired it up and taken a peek. I would keep your AFVs in the wood with overwatch on the Resupply point and the open ground towards the centre of the map. Hopefully you can take out some enemy before they spot you. Also remember to give your FO a target arc. You don't want any enemy fire on that building. Good Luck.

Some of us are so strange as to spell it humour.

Surely the only funky unit worth having is James Brown's Funky JBs

I've tried this campaign twice. And got stuffed both times early doors. So I can't comment on the quality of the urban maps. As for your comment on the FBB being an "Elite" unit your word "supposedly" is nearer the mark. You have to keep in mind that for most of war it had been seconded to the Grossdeutschland Division. And by 1944 it was a shadow of it's former self. A rag tag of elite troops and scratch units. It even had to be fleshed out with bicycle infantry for the Ardennes offensive.

A wonderful shot. -
Getting back to CM finally (UPDATE)
Warts 'n' all replied to WhiteWolf65's topic in Combat Mission - General Discussion
The place to get them is cmmodsiii.greenasjade.net which you can access from this site. As for "must haves" no two forum members can agree on. My advice would be to go through each game one by one. Create a mod holding folder outside of the game. And a "Z" folder within it. Then just test the mods one by one and decide which ones you want to keep. Some you will use all the time whilst some will be specific to certain campaigns or stand alone battles. -
Put your specs on mate. I mentioned above that anything by Aris is "worth a look". Although perhaps your dozed off after I mentioned cricket.

Ah, this isn't mine. I'm just fan of your fellow countryman ithikial's vids. And I sometimes like to swap banter about cricket with him. As for mods there something like 190 for Red thunder so plenty to chose from, anything from Aris is worth a look for both vehicles and landscape, and a certain bloke called Mord does some great unit portraits to liven up the UI

The "cool" are playing "Field of Tears", and that means going into battle with "Jumpin' at the Woodside" in their ears.

Wrong, "all the cools kids" are listening to Lester Young.

Fradulent Credit Card Transactions
Warts 'n' all replied to CanuckGamer's topic in Combat Mission - General Discussion
Why have you included me in your list of 33? I have said on more than one occasion in this thread that my money was stolen from another companies website. And I have no problem with Steve's explanation of what he thinks happened in early January. -
Fradulent Credit Card Transactions
Warts 'n' all replied to CanuckGamer's topic in Combat Mission - General Discussion
As I said very early on in this thread. My card got hacked on 11th January. But NOT from this site. The idea that it only happened to BFC is nonsense. -
Crossing Arnhem Bridge Is Very Buggy
Warts 'n' all replied to robonline's topic in Combat Mission Battle for Normandy
I cant speak for the OP. But that is how I always proceed with bridge crossings. But, for some reason with the "Joe's Bridge" scenario it just didn't work. I can't help thinking that our down under colonial cousin designed it like that just to piss us Poms off.
