[Bunkers are Equivalent to Coffins]

The most annoying ones were concrete. Firing from front on, and at close range, loads and loads of "Penetrations" but there always seemed to be just one bloke who refused to die.In the end you are watching the clock and getting more and more frustrated. But, I will have try that campaign again some time.

Ah, sorry about that. I only have the "what ifs".

Hope this works ..

I clicked on "older posts" as far as I could go, and couldn't see them either.

[Bunkers are Equivalent to Coffins]

I'm still running CMFI on Engine 3. The tanks in question are British Sherman V, so I assume it would just be the standard 75mm HE rounds that were available in the summer of 1943. I don't know if the game allows for tank crews to switch to AP when taking on bunkers.

[Bunkers are Equivalent to Coffins]

When I recently played the "Welcome to Sicilly" campaign during the final mission I lost count of the amount of tank rounds I had to put into the bunkers to knock them out. I'm not sure what the variables are under the hood, date, ammo quality, etc. But, it would be nice to be enlightened.

[Where are the Goumiers in djellaba?]

My Jolly Bolly is navy blue with gold stripes. But yours look so much better in regards to WW2.

[How to change the music?]

Glad to know that you got it working. Happy gaming!

[How to change the music?]

Sorry to hear that, I've never encountered a problem. I always use my own music mods, but I did just test the "All in one". I added ZZ_ to make sure that it loaded after my own mods, and it worked perfectly.

[What makes this module worth buying?]

They fought like lions.... No, they didn't. Lions would have told Mad Addy to "F*** Off, you Nazi plonker, and leave us in peace, the Jews never did us any harm."

[How to change the music?]

Red Thunder, has three music slots.

Name your files    music end of battle   music intro    music splash   

You can use the same piece of music for all three, or three different tunes, or two of one and one of another. Name your folder what you like, and then pop it into your "z" and it should work fine. Just an example ... CMRT West to East music

In my case I have one mod for when I am playing as the Russians, and one for when I am playing as the Germans, and just swap them in and out of my "z" folder.

The same format works for both Normandy/CW/MG and Italy. But Final Blitzkrieg only contains two music slots. Therefore your intro and splash music will be the same.

Ha, but my tanks don't fire their guns! The video clips above are from the that AAR.

I'm tempted to give this battle another whirl sometime soon.

Quick men, get over to Josey Wales's new video on yt, his Russians fire their rifles.

Until we get CM early war. Just have to make do with watching "April 9th" on DVD once a year.

[Here is What I Dont Understand about BF?]

Sadly, as we have seen so often in the past, anyone who thanks Steve for his input, and takes on board what he says, gets abuse. 

[Playing as Brazilians]

"Potato - poh-tah-to".. As it would have sounded to the boys at the sharp end on their wind-up gramophones. (If you don't know what one of them is ask a ... oh just google it).

 

[CMBN - Upgrading to Version 4]

Sadly @Bulletpoint is right. Carry on with Engine 3. There are only a handful of scenarios/campaigns that have been designed specifically for Engine 4, which leaves you with plenty of content to play whilst we wait for the hedgerow bug to eventually get fixed.

[Here is What I Dont Understand about BF?]

@domfluff Yes, I certainly miss ChrisND's excellent videos. We could really do with someone making CM videos of the same quality now.

[first small mod for R2V French troop]

Thanks to both of you for explaining. I'm a bit of a noddle head when it comes to things like that.

[first small mod for R2V French troop]

Can't you call the sand one for example ....   kepi-officer-jr

And the sky blue one ..    kepi-officer-sr

I know some of the uniform mods work in that way, although in this case it might be more difficult.

[Interested to hear if you are trying a Combat Mission 2 engine game for the first time because of the new nations now available?]

It is an interesting question, but I can't imagine many people who have never played CMx2 before even reading it.

Although I was chatting to a guy in The Groucho last night. And he told me that Elvis is putting The Attractions back together with four backing singers, Miss Brazil, Miss France, Miss India and, Miss South Africa. They will be performing in front of a video wall made up of screenshots from Rome to Victory, and doing a striptease during "Oliver's Army", all in an attempt to drum up trade for the new title.

@Freyberg Nail well and truly hit on the head.

In the meantime without giving too much away, apply the second word of the campaign title, to your tactics in the first mission. It might help a bit.
