You have 3 in FB I like them all. Major bitch you can only play against the AI.

Camera Position 1 gives you POV of a standing trooper.

You can use the move tool. It makes it clear where you can ford and where you can't ford.

@Muzzleflash1990 this is what I mean. By pressing the 'W-key' you can move right in the tank. Camera Position 1 plus one notch up with the mouse wheel puts you in the fighting compartment 2 Notches in the Commander Open Position.

I do, the possibility of a LOS doesn't mean you have it. I can just imagine the frustration of some people. What could be done have different settings for people who like to play RTS which could include your LOS tool. I am against it in the WeGo mode of play, Camera position 1 you can see your LOS but it doesn't mean it is also your LOF. CM is lightyears ahead in regard to Graviteam. A suppressed trooper sticking his face in the mud doesn't have an LOS CM takes all this into account.

In Gog and Magog, you see nothing when you start the game. They become visible once the ATGs open up. I just put the veteran FO in the farming complex facing them. He soon drops 120 mm mortars on them. Reason you should play a human player. The AI doesn't figure out that obvious observation post.

The 17-pounder was hiding behind a hedge. I know the 105mm has a killing radius of close to 30 meters. The conditions were dry and the Germans didn't have a proximity fuse. It shows once again not to take the artillery for granted. In this game it was effective they inflicted 25% of the Canadian casualties. Thanks for your interest and attention.

A screenshot would be appreciated if you have time. No rush.

It is the new computer in my old computer NVidia let me add CM the new NVidia settings don't allow this.

Anybody can explain this: In CMBN "Sticking It Out" at least 2X105 mm shell exploded in the backyard of a house. Later the 17-pounder located there was still in action.

I disagree. Go to 'Camera Position 1' after pressing the 'Tab Key'. In the case of a tank, you're directly positioned behind the tank. You use now the 'W-key' to move into the interior of the tank. You need to use the scroll wheel one notch or so to find the level of the gunner. Setting waypoints gives you an idea but don't rely on it. Only when a full contact icon pops up, you can shoot at it, otherwise area fire only. LOS doesn't mean that you have LOF.

The economy is what broke up the Soviet Union. He doesn't know the consequences of an invasion he can only guess. This is not good enough for somebody like Putin.

Recon the terrain before you start see which units can reach or control the objective. Infantry can often wade across where vehicles can't. Check the bridge which has often a point from which you can wade across. Playing a game where you can't reach the objective is not worth playing. Objective to eliminate the enemy forces.

We had a few competitions Service Pistol was meant originally as a friendly match between the Police and the Armed services. It was biased towards the .38 Special in regards the generous reloading times. IPSC is the only way a civilian can own a centrefire pistol in Australia, my 1911 was multipurpose in that regard, it gave me years of fun. IPSC came later with spoilers. Customize beyond recognition, but we had a box in which your weapon had to fit to make it in Service Pistol competition. The 1911 I am happy to say in 20 years of shooting it never malfunctioned and it could shoot better than I was capable of. Always puzzled why they got rid of it.

Armoured Infantry Tactics of WW2 « Steven's Balagan looks like they at least have the basics right. If it comes to decision making this is a good one. Necesse VOL 5, Issue 1_NY.indd (wordpress.com)

I talked about Soviet POWs and nationals who were denied the return to their country. One of them was like an uncle in our family. Stalin was disowned by the Soviet regime not long after he died. Yes, something like 15 million people in the Gulags who just dared not to agree with communism. You're that sensitive to the extent that Battlefront should adjust their engine so that the Soviets can win every battle. I didn't find Bunkers Burning too demanding to win it. I never talked about German POWs. Neither Germany nor the Soviet Union signed the Geneva convention. Khrushchev was an improvement on Stalin but not by much. The West never erected minefields and razor wire to stop its citizens from migrating to Eastern Europe. Communist Eastern Europe did, it is just historical fact. This is a hobby forum and we discuss wargaming, not politics and Battlefront doesn't have a political agenda. some battles to win as US are also difficult.

Sticking it Out no mods just standard. The most effective guy on the battlefield, Radio, Map and Binoculars. 25% of enemy casualties. Artillery Light on Long adjust when priority targets are spotted. Mortars were assigned to the Panther HQ.

Yes, I managed with infiltration and exploited the fact that HQ's can call in the mortars without radios. With the latter I don't have a problem there are countless of ways which makes this possible. The Soviet armor when the FOW has been overcome with infiltration tactics.

It is a myth most people know that, that wisdom comes from 'Enemy at the Gates'. What is true Soviet POWs couldn't go home till some 30 years after the war. You could only surrender with permission. The Communist Soviets were on par in regards of morals with Nazi Germany. The Gulag system was dismantled under Nikita Khrushchev for a reason 15 million people were imprisoned there, it would have been higher if the Soviet POWs were made to return.

I used my 1911 for competition and 50 meters was a stage for the Australian Service Pistol Match. For the people who say the gun is not accurate. The target was the UIT Rapid Fire Target the 10 area the size of a large playing card. Granted we fitted a custom Bar-Sto Barrel and bushing the gunsmith also mirror polished everything inside. On the outside it looked like any other 1911. I bought some 8 round mags which were the same dimensions than the standard 7 round mags when you carry condition 1 you had 9 rounds. The other reason I prefer it over the HP is the mag safety in the HP the trigger in the 1911 is superior. I wouldn't hesitate to carry it if I needed one. To address the topic, if you use Soviet infantry who have no radios as you would use US troops whose armored infantry has two in the squad. You find the game goes sluggish; he should realize the tactics of the Soviet army are different for that reason. If you send scouts your leading elements must contact the scouts in person to get intel.

I was in Seoul a few years ago. Just look at their subway system. It is just not for transport but shopping arcades, bars and restaurants. Seoul has a city underneath a city. We can see the way the world is going biological warfare will play a role.

Sorry in that case you shouldn't be able to do t.

Thermal sights permit to fire through smoke. It would be helpful if we know about which game, we have this topic.

My handloads were 200 grains going at 900ft/sec compared with a 115grain going at 1100 feet/second (9mm). The pistol in trained hands is accurate at 50mtrs. Energy if you multiply weight of bullet with ft/sec is superior to the 9 mm, it also leaves a bigger wound channel. Cons: Learning curve to shoot it well is longer than the 9 mm. Colt 1911 vs the Browning HP. Both guns were designed by Browning 7-round magazine vs a 13-round magazine is an advantage hard to overlook. For a backup I don't know what I would prefer a 45 ACP or 9 mm parabellum. I would go for the 45ACP as the velocity is subsonic a lead projectile (wheel weights are ideal) is far more economical than buying jacketed projectiles.

I don't mind, I unintentionally put things on the wrong forums too. It just happens we should be able to delete posts, but we must contact BF first.
