Yeah, usually I just shoot walls. But recently I had particular situation when a lot of my troops where hid behind wall and had no safe passage other that through it. And they had to stay close to the wall. I had tank but shooting HE was too dangerous for my own troops.

I wonder, why it is not possible to crush walls by tank. Modern tank should easily demolish brick walls simply by driving through them. However, this action could damage external equipment. This might be view as "cost" of such inappropriate usage of armoured vehilce.

Is it a technical limitation or Battlefront doesn't want anybody else to produce content for the game?

Five times in a row? Ten in fact as each building has at lest two opposing walls.

And I won't get source code because CM is not opensource project Ok, I got it.

I haven't yet seen AI plans mechanisc but I suspect that is not what I'am talking about. I was talking about adaptive AI that is not tied to scenario designer prescriptions but in fact implements OODA loop. Personally, I'd love to try and design one myself if CM engine permits plugging in 3rd party functionality.

Hmm... weird quiestion, but can I design and put my own AI in place? Any kind of API for that kind of thigns?

I'very played several QBs. Initially I thought that QB is analogue of "skirmish mode" of classical RST. However, behavior of AI units tells me that no AI of any sort is playing against me. Enemy units just execute prescripted plan. Am I right in my conclusion?

Tried two battles with "no reload" policy. Completely different impressions, much more fun!

Actually, I was surprised not by the fact it killed two IFV, but by the fact in passed through 5+ houses and flew out of the map. Like mass production of ventilation holes.

Yes, he could

I didn't say all battery was drained in single shot. It was like 100% before scan and 90% right after scan.

Why not heat? Every kind of energy evetually will be converted to heat P.S. Okay, I didn't do any measures so it could be just unbased impression.

My T-72B3 have just pierced two Bradleys with one shot and that shot also flew through several buildings and then off the map. Who needs your fancy DU anyways? ))

For leanring it's fine, but for "playing for real" it is very disruptive. It's like narcotics, reload once and then start reloading more and more. It comes to "Oh, s--t, they wounded my rifleman, it's too hard to continue"

IRL I've managed to deal with it years ago and now helping my own subordinates to overcome it. But games have this... tempting possibility

Thanks you answer.

I've noticed that X-Ray scanning in airports noticeably cut battery charge of my devices. May be it is that? I mean like "we detonate nuclear charge right behind you to.... er... discharge your batteries" Sounds like a good idea, right?

Yeah, I'ts like "Whoa!! Brace yourself while I reveal my strategic brilliance.... F@@k, where did that Javelin come form?!!!!!"

Thanks for your answers. I think I'll choose strict "No reload policy". Reload --> Failed Mission

Can anyone please explain casualties as they are modelled in game? For selected squad all soliers are depicted with their weapon Icon. Sometime icon becomes yellow. What does it mean? Light injury? What means "Casualty"? Is it dead soldier? Or "dead or hevily wounded"? What red cross icon hovering over fallen soldier mean? In manual I've read about "buddy help". How it works? Is it true there are no medical units in game and no medevac mechanics? Thanks is advance.

Yeah, I'll try this mantra

While playing this game I constantly struggle to overcome my perfectionism. "Damn, that freaking Stryker killed my new shiny BMP.... too bad, got to reload" But then it gets worse: every next reload attempt is even worse because I'am comparing my performance to previous attempts After few iterations I completely stop at mission and give up. That is complete nonsence because I have enought reserves to run over enemy I just like perfect zero-loses victory a bit too much. Do you have temptation to reload after significant loses? How do you fight your temptation?

People readily belevie what is comfortable to beleive and quiestion everything that pushes them out of their comfort-zone. That is especially easy to do when you know nothing of subject

Author forgot to mention classified Death Stars that will rain laser beams on enemies.
