  1. Massively playing CM and being a wego follower, I spend a lot of time watching the actions at ground level,
    This practice requires a lot of mouse and I started to suffer from a tennis-elbow which required physiotherapist sessions !!
    The situation got worse at a point where I even asked myself the question: should I continue playing at CM?
    I tested an ergonomic mouse, a special mat, nothing helped.
    Then I had the idea of using a game controller
    I downloaded the free JoyToKey program, bought a game controller for pc and was able to indulge in my vice without suffering
    Even if you do not suffer from pathology, the paddle is particularly practical for "flying" over the battlefield.
    The advantage is that you can assign any key to your taste to the game controller and you can continue to use the keyboard and the mouse which remains necessary.

    L'autre jour, j'ai vu cela dans un autre fil. C'est excitant de voir quelqu'un découvrir un nouveau front et un nouveau jeu.:) 

    Mais je n'aurais jamais pensé que le front oriental pouvait être décrit comme «facile!»

     


     

    Facile?

    It is true that said like that it may seem strange !!!
    But Bud you make me say what I don't say 😃
    I'm not saying it's easy, I'm saying it's easier than CM Italy

    it is often explained to the new player that CM Normandy is the best choice for beginners because he offers the most with all his modules ...
    however for the technique of game I think that Red thunder is more affordable

    CM Italy is to be flee because I think it can discourage new player
    very beautiful picture

    I come back to this thread and my subject will only concern Red Thunder !!

    It's been over a month now that I'm fighting in the East and can give my first impressions. My surprise is to see how different the game can be from Normandy and Italy

    It's easier (much easier) than in Italy.

    For once we even tremble with a panther or a tiger!

     My surprise is the SU 76, I took it for a "tankette". Bitter meeting when one is German. Great surprise also the Soviet snipers.

    Frankly, I have only one regret is not having bought it before !!

  4. thank you i was with the game open
    I looked at several scenarios that I opened to watch then by opening one, the game loaded a little more than 70% then back on the desktop and when I tried to reopen this message it is displayed.
    we already had a discussion on this thread ...
    Closing problem, abnormal loading time, various crashes. You already mentioned a problem related to the license key
    I think this is the confirmation
    I will open a ticket
    thanks again

    Michael Emrys,

     

    La somme totale de ce que j'ai lu sur la guerre des chars de la Seconde Guerre mondiale indique que vous avez tort. Au combat, il était courant que les chars soient touchés et l'équipage ne soit plus plus sage qu'après la fin de la bataille. Et je parle de coups de canon principaux, pas de coups de MG. J'ai lu récemment dans Taming Les Panzers de plusieurs cas dans lesquels un char a été désactivé, mais cela n'a pas été trouvé que quand était le temps de changer de position. J'ai lu des déclarations d'équipages dans lesquelles ils ont été réalisés qu'ils ont été touchés (non perforés) par des canons de chars et des obus SPG pendant la bataille uniquement par les cicatrices sur leur armure après l'arrêt du tir .

     

    Cordialement,

    exact as incredible as it may seem
    I knew a "malgré nous" Mosellan who was a radio operator in a panther of the 116th panzer I / 24 Pz.rgt
    he explained to me that his tank was struck by a AP in the engine
    they realized it when the oil pressure dropped !
    At first I didn't believe it

     

  6. I correct what I said before
    The 3rd company of 503 received tanks at Mailly late
    It does not reach the Normandy front and retreats while crossing Paris
    These are KT henschel
    In the photo it's a tank from the 3rd company (331)

    It is probably just a typo but Goodwood began on 18th July.

    yes of course

    i don't understand 111 kompagnie there is only 3 compagnie in 503 !!

    I tried to find the picture in Bundesarchiv but none of the Paris 1944 pictures are this one. I’m really intrigued!

    The shot is on Pinterest:

    source appears to be Getty.

    https://www.gettyimages.ca/detail/news-photo/in-august-1944-german-tiger-ii-tanks-of-503rd-panzer-news-photo/121507401

    I think it's a French civil photo can be resistance
    taken from a window, the risks to take this kind of shot was death

  7. These tigers are unlikely to belong to s / pza 503.
    They arrived in Normandy in early July without having passed through Paris.
    They are engaged against the British east of Caen.
    The first is destroyed by Lieutenant Gorman of the 2nd Irish Guard who spurs it (!) On August 18 the first day of Operation Goodwood
    A second is destroyed by 5 DCLI of 43eme ID on August 7 after a 2 inch mortar rocket was shot down on the supply vehicle which parked next to the tank.
    Finally the others were lost during the retreat, abandoned and scuttled by their crew none seem to have reached Paris on this occasion
    You probably have to look more on the side of the 1ss Pz division

  8. As I now have Red Thunder I just downloaded this mod, wow, this guy is a genius and I weigh my words.
    I was already fascinated by the Cembienne map with the precision in the town planning, the distribution of the different districts and all the details: its old town on the height, its residential area these workers' gardens
    A masterpiece.
     But then this city of Bitvagorod, a mixture of realism and cinema decor ...
    And all the technical ingenuity to achieve this realism, well on bridges but also industrial brick buildings with the concrete reinforcement obtained from religious buildings ... wow
    The time spent to give us that, wow

    So I repeat this guy is a genius.
    Thank you

  9. In short, it's to say that I am very happy with my purchase
    I find it particularly well done and finished. Already Italy had impressed but Red Thunder is incredible and realistic landscape it and I often go to the region !!!
    It may be necessary to give CMBN a "facelift" because when unpacking it is rather disappointing and since not everyone knows the mods.

  10. 1 o'clock in the morning
    its good
    It works
    I have more than tested
    but already first impression is beautiful, I do not think I will put a lot of mods to improve

    An unexpected (short term) benefit of the situation is a number of the Beta testers and scenario designers find themselves stuck at home with nothing to do - except work on the module.

    it is a very sad consolation
    and that quickly that everyone goes back to work and that this catastrophe is only a chapter in our history books
