  1. I can't stop saying it !!! I showed my wife after a silence she just answered: "is it an Englishman ?"
  2. we can mix the Rambler's hedge, that of Lucky and that of stock to obtain variations. we can use various names with and without space which will more or less modify the randomness ex: boccage; boccage2; boccage 2; boccage3; boccage 3 etc ....
  3. I think that if cm normandie had been of the same graphic quality as cm italy or better Red Thunder I would not have started mods but frankly cm Normandie is really ugly ... once I start the mods it becomes adictive and honestly between my cm Normandie and what I see through my window I managed to get a fairly correct overall impression. I play every time in ground level and sometime i prohibited me to up the camera for more imersive impression each play like each like
  4. good news Lethaface's remark on the incitement to rapeseed questioned me. I checked what it was for France. I discovered that it was massively cultivated in France between 1750 and 1850, its oil being used as fuel for oil lamps. With the constitution of the colonial empire, this culture was abandoned and replaced by imports of peanut oils from the colonies. On the eve of World War II, the culture almost disappeared. During the occupation, the interruption of imports will encourage the authorities to relaunch this crop. However, the farmers will resist and it is only after the liberation that the cultivation resumes in favor of edible oil. In normandy in 1944 no rapeseed !! it's crazy what we learn with this game !!!
  5. I don't try to be friendly with the game designers even though I bless them every day for making such a game available to us !!! I try to be pragmatic because bugfixes tend to lead to more annoying, if not unplayable, bugfixes, and the banzai bug is the best example of this. for me the most embarrassing is the bug when units enter through multiple doors even though I have learned over time to split groups before entering They've probably reached the end of the system
  6. I agree with you I generally play in a divided team in the bocage and even in this configuration and even with simple orders there are sometimes blockages. Most of the time a soldier stays behind and joins the others with a lag, often by crawling, it is enough to redo the order of movement in rapid and the latter joins the rest of the team. more rarely, those who left first go back to join the motionless one despite all this is overall quite rare and personally part of the element that adds realism to my taste that a soldier remains behind: a moment of hesitation, a technical problem (my rifle is jammed, I broke my laces, I lost my helmet, I have an urgent call ) in the RL world it happens all the time
  7. I noticed one going in front, under small arms fire !!! however this one is coming in a particular context (mixed wood of hedge) and once in hundreds of cases honestly I find the setting of the AI very successful and for a strangeness I noticed hundreds of consistent behavior
  8. it is not to contest the 2 points of Long left flank but I think (I'm not sure) that his photo with the para drinking wine was taken in the south of France during Dragon however the exact location interests me and Congratulations to Vergeltungswaffe what beautiful photos
  9. i try my luck "J'ai deux amours, mon pays et Paris" Josephine Baker 1930 our American more French than many of us engaged in the resistance in 1940 - Croix de Guerre with palm - resistance medal with rosette - Free France medal - Legion of Honor
  10. so I see that we are only between clever boy I tag immediately
  11. I am bald like the back of a hand, injustice makes me lose my hair by handfuls !!! however at that time or in the totalitarian regimes "take the hair of the beast" (expression which I suspect too French which can be translated like: becoming the rule) the Cromwel's wart must be like a fish in water (expression which I think is sufficiently pictorial) I have at least one merit, without having posted any image, it is to be present in the ranking even if it is negative !!!! Courage Vacilllator, light will eventually pierce the darkness. Well the photo of the humbers is superb. Okay
  12. I'm afraid he only objects to the Opel Maultier is a German vehicle ! however behind we can see a jeep... for me you have 1 point more for information, the Opel was used after the war by a liquor merchant what preserved. it is currently visible in the Overlord Museum
  13. he are lying to you, he are robbing you !! not only are the rules opaque but in addition there are shameful attempts by Warts 'n' all to cheat, he recognizes it himself with the photo 3 "it was probably too big unless he has an ounce left honesty !!!! moreover photo number 2 shows a Fiat Topolino and not a citroen so how to believe that the other photos are good.... we French have been training for centuries to detect the deceptions of our neighbors across the Channel, it's genetic John Martin's Guinness Gold Cup - New Current standings Warts 'n' all - 0 Points Vacillator - 2 Points Wicky - 0 Points damn I just found that Vacillator is also English, it's a plot
  14. it's been a long time since I posted images! unusual sight of a Sherman pilot
  15. Very interesting video even for me who lives in the middle of this landscape. The modification of the landscape is particularly accelerating in recent years Until the 1980s the landscape had changed little. What a battles I have done as a child with my comrades, the clay balls replacing the grenades and the Sten and other Thompson made of wood looked great. The small size of the fields and the labyrinth of sunken lanes were a wonderful playground, but for the war !! Combat in this environment is close to urban combat but in 2D there is no hight level Visibility rarely exceeds 30m and with vegetation it is not uncommon to literally step on your opponent to see him.
  16. let's be clear, hre in france , French grammar is like women we use them but we don't understand them
  17. as I do not understand anything about the computer sound, I modified the music by setting the values as they were on my original sound : 1411.2 kb/s, 44,1 khz, 16 bits, 2 canaux, pcm (little/ signed) this solved the speed problem
  18. I also spent nights on Squad Leader at the time it was very little distributed in France and buying them in the USA or in London was an adventure in itself, souvenir souvenir !!! Currently I play Tanks https://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/195242/tanks-panther-vs-sherman very simple and fast with my 2 boys but once in 2 it ends in a fight: the crooks they cheat
  19. where can i find the bmp of the M 1892 , the link is not available
  20. I am not upset! thanks to this forum I made great progress in the language of Shakespeare On the other hand i don't understand the connection between treacherous Albion and Hazlitt, the expression is from the writer Bossuet in the 17th century and alludes to the battle of Azincourt in 1415 or "l'anglois" execute the French knights prisoners ... the "she" goes with "team" which is feminal in French i must say "he's reached the door when on the left the ominous grinding of an MG 42 reveals her" or "it's reached the door when on the left the ominous grinding of an MG 42 reveals her. ...after research I understood : ultracrepidarian
  21. it is not good to make fun of someone who speaks a language that is not this own then I discovered this document (authentic) which proves that there were women paratroopers in the American army perfide Albion
