Have you been on a diet?
You look a bit gaunt.
Do you mean I look that duke from Ghent? I hope not, I hate the monarchy. Although it is a lovely city to drink in.
But to answer your question, no I've not been on a diet, I have used this picture of Ollie's dug up head a couple of times before. But, recently some idiots told me how much they hate my content on this forum, so I thought that seeing me dead might make their day.

I tend to just let my troops get on with it themselves. They know what they are doing with their weapons better than I do.

I mean I dont want to advertise a competitor here
Are you sure about that? I seem to remember that you made an entire series of CM videos where you hurled expletives at both the scenario designers, and BFC. And then adding insult to injury you plugged another game ad nauseum.

However, the only areas where I'm seeing a problem that definitely needs looking at is with group spacing inside some building types and Soviet MG teams (maybe other Allied as well, but I haven't played them lately). As I'm sure you know, some building types tend to cause a soldier or two to stay outside when the squad takes position on the ground level. This, of course, gives away the sqad's location and can draw fire.
I've noticed the behaviour you describe across both allied and axis forces in Final Blitzkrieg, so it is not confined to the Russians I certainly didn't notice the problem of a team, or individuals staying outside of a building until the introduction of Engine 4. Some people had in the past complained about "squads" bunching, or moving in single file. So rather than splitting them into "teams" and avoiding the bunching themselves, they wanted the behaviour changed by BFC, or at least that is how I read it at the time, I maybe wrong on that score. I don't know if the hanging around outside of a building has been addressed in either patch 4.01 or 4.02 as I now confine myself to playing on engine 3.

I was assuming that John was referring to Normandy, and a County regiment. Although you're right SAS is only one syllable.

I am hoping he was joking.
Me too. Although being a dead puritan I'm not the best judge of humour.

Just release it and fix it later.
That could open a whole new can of worms. As Martin Luther almost said.

Having recently reinstalled CMBN I ran in to the same thing as the OP looking for Juju's UI mod. Was coming here to ask where to find it but decided to run a search first. Got it now and thanks Warts for the help!
You're most welcome. Bootie does a great job for us.

Yes, as I said, the problem only seems to occur when the gunner is in the same element as the squad leader.
I'll use this post to call our Lord and Savior @BFCElvis so he can log this. By the way, where did Oliver Cromwell go?
It's still noddle head. Just the "after death" version.

I've just fired up "Meijel Mayhem" to have a look. When the reinforcements show up in one platoon all three squads have only one MG. Whilst in the second platoon two squads are as per yours, whilst the third has both of it's MGs.
Whether that is an accurate reflection of how things were in the autumn and winter of 44/45 I don't know. But, at least you know it isn't anything to do with your copy of the game

Single syllable... "Hants" for the Hampshire Regiment perhaps.

Haters, rather than critics, are easy enough to spot and easily ignored.
Spot on, Declan.

I've wracked my noddle and can't help I'm afraid.

Go on point man. Run mate.

More great story telling.
I'm with the guy on the far left closest to the building. Keeping my mouth shut, and hoping that someone in front of me cops it instead of me.

No sir it isn't.
So no avenue in Paris named after you then. Ne'er mind, I'm sure your day will come. Happy gaming.

LOL yeah that would have been a good one. Except that it would be counter to my point.
No, that was just a regular old typo with auto mangle turned on.
Still you got a laugh out of the old puritan.

These old gentlemen are going to be missed. Not many of them left anymore. Last Saturday more than 100 000 people came to see the airlanding at the Ginkelse Heide. I must say I was a bit surprised to see that the BBC didn't pay any attention to Market Garden. At least I didn't see it.
All I could find was a few stories over the weekend on their website.

Sorry dan, no I got the Witchfinder thing from a boring old history book about mad puritans who believed in a warped kind of political correctness. In fact I can't walk past a branch of Watchfinder UK without taking the piss out of their TV ad, and saying. "Witchfinder General, murdering innocent women since the 1640's"
As for Neil Gaiman I only really know about the brilliant BBC series "Neverwhere".
