Thanks Mick. I'm never going to win Mornington Crescent, but I'll settle for "Linguistic creativity". -

Given that my historical humour goes over some heads, it might be best locked. My joke had nothing to do with B%$£%&. It was about someone shutting down Parliament when they don't get their own way, something of course that Warty face did himself. -

I was hoping that someone was going to pick up on the fact that there was no such band as "John E Lenin and the Toronto Beat Boys". -

Don't worry. Elizabeth tells me that Mr and Mrs Axeman have gone off to Allhallows-on-mud, for their holidays, so you are safe for the time being. In the meantime I have more important things to attend to. As if the "Short Parliament" wasn't bad enough, I have the "Idiot Parliament" to worry about. Opens my window out on to St.Jame's to catch the strains of John E. Lenin and the Toronto Beat Boy's singing "All we are saying, is string Johnson up". Not that I am one to advocate Regicide, in any way shape or form. -

What great footage, thanks for sharing these. The dancers remind me of the classic movie "Le Bal". -

If you play WW2 titles call 'em British, Commonwealth, or Limeys. If you play modern titles then call 'em Brits if you must. In the meantime I'm off to help the rozzers track down the scum who stole my napper from outside the London Bridge Museum last night. -

It's a long running joke. Put simply, since the Dictatorship of the Semi-literate was established in May 1979 by President Murdoch of the Antipodes, and his puppets Lord and Lady Insidertraders of Burmah, it has become a crime to think for oneself, or to speak English well in this country. People who use words like "British" are regularly burnt at the stake on a pyre made from copies of The Grauniad, with a sign reading "I used a long word" around their necks. Even historians are forced to use the phrase "Romano-Brits", failure to comply lands them a one way ticket to Tyburn. And "Brit" isn't the same as calling a Septic Tank a "Yank". Limey is. Exits stage right singing Tony Bennet's "I left my heart in Newport Pagnell" -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------> -
But, I bet that you cheer your head off when enemy vehicles get stuck, making them a sitting duck for your own troops.

Firstly there weren't any "Brits" in Normandy. And secondly, this behaviour has been reported frequently. And although 4.02 dealt with the problem of "fleeing" towards the enemy in the other titles, the specific problem regarding hedgerow gap charging will need it's own fix in due course. -

You can tell the guy in front is struggling so hard to resist the temptation to throw a "V" sign at the photographer.

Of course, I did try to get the "Stinkpot" renamed the Honey, but it never really caught on.

I've never seen an infantryman with a tank beret before.

But, as I pointed out in the mission list I provided earlier in the thread, win those and you win the campaign. It's not easy, I haven't managed it yet. But, it is possible..- 50 replies

Warts 'n' all replied to DerKommissar's topic in Combat Mission Final Blitzkrieg
I think that the Aaachen maps are a brilliant piece of work. The only drawback building wise is that some of the Dutch style buildings that are used in Final Blitzkrieg do have a door entry problem that came across from MG. But, the German apartment blocks laid out around a courtyard are spot on. And fighting my way through them was a lot of fun. I agree with the black feline from the colonies that elevation does create a problem with some doors during in CMFB, but short of creating a little piece of flat land for each building to stand on I'm not sure what else a map maker can do. Also, I have seen photos of houses in the Ardennes that have the front door on one floor, and the back door on the floor above to take the slope into account.- 50 replies
