Works now! Thanks a lot!

Thanks a lot for all these options, great work considering the screenshots. The Dropbox link currently doesn't work for me, I get the message that the file was deleted. Anyone else who can confirm/deny?

+ The Dutch, import them from CMSF2 with Mid-life Updates CV90's with APS and Spike. Airborne 'Luchtmobiel' Infantry Motorised infantry (Boxer + Fennek) Mechanized infantry (CV90 + Fennek + Leased German Leo's)

Would indeed love to see the possibility to support with indirect fire from automatic grenade launchers and machine guns. Maybe with the same mechanic as on-map mortars with the possibility to call for fire by FOs and commanders?

Would love to see the campaign and play it, especially if it is possible to play it with only the base-game (or basegame with NATO-pack;))

@IanL I suppose it means Automatic Rifleman?

Vught?

Maybe a bit off-topic in a CMFB forums, but this feature would also be relevant in modern titles. It is not uncommon for recon sections to leave one systems operator in the vehicle (so not the driver! this means that the recon equipment, if not detached for dismounted use, can still be used) and have a dismounted patrol of 2/3 man to scout ahead. This feature, along with the option to dismount recon kit, like the BAA system, would surely be welcomed by me.

@Jumpete, I'm not that much into WW2, but regarding your last question, I think on page 1 of this thread there is a screenshot with a pz III (3rd post on the page):

Can you elaborate more on the features of the Engine 5 Update?

For educational purposes I am looking for a scenario / campaign mission to have a go at Mobile or Area Defense at company lever or lower. I only own the CMSF2 basegame and the NATO module. The problem with most defensive missions is a sort of 'last stand' start, after which you'll get extra units and the ability to beat up the enemy with superior firepower. The kind of scenario I'm looking for is where you start with decent Company team assets, against a battalion or so. Anyone who can help me with that? I recall there is a mission in the German campaign like this, but I don't know if that is a stand alone scenario also. Thanks in Advance! Kind regards, Barend

I know about F&R, upcoming CMFB and CMBS modules and the government contract, but it would be good to get an up-to-date overview of what is currently being worked on and what Battlefront is planning on for future releases or even an CMx3.

Does the fact that maybe there will not be an 5.0 upgrade mean that the next incarnation of CM (CMx3) is being worked on?

Phew, these look so nice! Beautiful combination of faces! Because this is in the CMBS forums, any chance this mod will also be released for CMSF:2? Would love to see NATO forces with this also..

Well to be honest, I did not fully get it right there about the ScanEagle, because it had to be the RQ-11 Raven, the same as the Canadians (Which means less work for Battlefront to implement) To compensate: Sperwer in Afghanistan: Raven in Afghanistan: (1:50 - 2:12) Not meant to hijack the thread, but had to correct my info.

I have the same issue indeed

Why don't u use the 'Target Light' command then? IIRC the Bradley will fire 25mm when that command is given.

Could someone post images of the mods currently mentioned here like 'rus Spetsnaz'? They sound very interesting, but I would like to see before download;) Thanks in advance! Also, are these Mods compatible with CMSF:2? And what about the Grozny campaign?

If you do one minute of 'target briefly', I think the mortars will stop aiming after that minute, so when you do another minute, it is basically a new fire mission. Maybe it helps if you do 'target briefly' for 1:15 minute and after each turn do an extra minute if that is needed.

Actually, the Dutch made extensive use of the Sperwer and the ScanEagle in Afghanistan, AFAIK also in the CMSF timeframe. So I definately second the idea for more drones for NATO countries! Although I don't know if there is any chance we will see that in the nearby future..?

Thanks for your quick and detailed response Ithikial! I'll set the canpaign on hold and wait for the patch.

Thanks for your quick response. Is that particular mission nearly implayable without the map? Eg, would you recommend quitting the first scenario and wait for the update? Also, what does the update comprise of?

Is it possible to update the campaign when te new version is coming out while already having played a few missions? Or do I have to start all over?

Thanks for your answer! However, if I recall correctly, each vehicle has special modelled viewing and spotting option, depending on the place of crewman and equipment in the vehicles. So it isn't that difficult to have the camera a little bit higher, is it? I don't care about if I see it on the model, just the mechanic would be great.

If talking about the fennek, is it modelled that the BAA observation equipment, is actually a periscope and can be extended for 1,5 meter? It would make the Fennek far more effective to observe in a proper concealed and protected hull-down position.
