Sometimes they show sometines they dont.. A tow-2B .. Two t-72s dstroyed.. Both turret top hits .. (Another was saved by the little kontakt-5 tiles on the turret top) .. One showed a huge hole on the commander's hatch the other.. Nothing at all

The mortars were useful in killing that AGS-17 on the building's roof with a short and sweet (for me ) airbusrt barrage

this is excellent

Question about observation / detection in this game.
antaress73 replied to exsonic01's topic in Combat Mission Black Sea
The human brain is hardwired to detect movement -
javelin, at-13.. kornet even I think but not the older systems. Expect your troops to be pinned and supressed for a few seconds after firing hehe

How to kill a tank - single battle spoilers (?)
antaress73 replied to wham's topic in Combat Mission Black Sea
Against a human opponent buy lot's of AA as the russians.. Kill those drones and dont place your tanks on a line where they can only hit the front armor of M1A2s. Keyhole fire and ambush the M1s with two tanks from different directions. The M1 is vulnerable to the front to russian tanks but you need 2-1 superiority even on defense to get away with it. Get side shots from two different directions and you'll kill them on a regular basis. Not easy. Use your infantry as a distraction for the M1s (sneak tanks on them) and the occasional kill. If you can kill the Bradleys first then deal with the M1s. If you have airpower, use it on them. Ukrainians ... Good luck -

Can you remove the camo on the helmet to get an olive drab plain one ? or maybe even alternate between the two , a mix. Would help on getting that rag-tag look.

That thing that goes boum ! -
I remember that scene in band of brothers , in Holland. There's a german tank waiting in ambush and easy company warns the british tank commander that there is a tank around the corner of the house. Just shoot at that wall and you'll have a clear shot at him without endangering yourself. The British tank commander's answer was:" my orders are clear, no unnecessary destruction of property" .. That's in the middle of the biggest military conflict ever !

Error buzzer.. Wrong .. Top attack diving javelin exploded right above an M1A2 by APS. A beauty and surprise. Trophy is like a dome so there is vertical coverage ( i googled it afterwards).

The DPR army doesnt look like that anymore.. They look like a regular army with body armor and gorka uniforms or olive green with plain helmets (plastic looking). Let me find you some pics.

I see them too...

730mm at 2000 meters for svinets-2... that's much less than M829A4.. and also it's the same armor .. 960 but facing the tank directly and because of the slope/angled perspective... if you place yourself a little to the side and if you hit those turret slabs at 90 degrees it's 700-750mm that you have to punch through so that's why I got two penetration on the right front turret slab at 830 meters from a T-72B3,, it was a 3 on 1 attack from multiple angles from the front.

where do you get the data if they dont publish it ? -
As for the Russians not hitting NATO bases in a shooting war so close to their borders that's wishfull thinking. The Russians prefer to escalate than to lose and if it goes there, its a fight to the death. Serious miscalculation. It will get out of hand pretty quick.

Well the apaches are a major factor for the US too, without them youre screwed. Destroying 13 BMP-2M plus 3 T-72 at night + infantry supported by heavy arty and mortars in a limited short LOS environment with only some arty and a stryker platoon ? Good luck ! Russians dont have their usual air defense tools either. 2 frogfoots arent much. If they are doing an air surge calls for help are coming from all across the battlefield so its possible. NATO air is also probably attrited. Who do you think you're fighting against close to their borders ? Lol
