They give Bollywood a run for their money.

Exactly what you should do. I don't have that battle pack. The bridge bug needs to be resolved. The biggest traffic management is Seelow RT and Counterattack at Son BN which are not too bad. A road map just to be able to organize company size travel quickly is something for the next engine. The real bug is pathfinding in the BF games.

Most scenarios start when you need to deploy your forces. Baranovichi RT starts with 12 trucks at the start of a 3km road. Tactically irresponsible to start driving along the three km road. Before you drive a convoy go ahead with the scouting units. In that case a platoon of light tanks. I would have a convoy with a platoon to drive in each turn which is manageable. 3KM is one of the longer roads easy to manage by just dismounting and just walk. We don't have in the games a RL scenario of say a convoy of 1km in length driving a distance of say 50 km. I already suggested on my wish list a road map and topographic map for the movement of formations to replace Camera position 8-9. Easier said than done. You don't have to do that. Click a HQ double click to select all put it all on pause. And organize your convoy in the set up zone. Just cancel the pause by a single tap on the p-key.

Farfetched but I am puzzled why the tanks are doing the assisting but not the other way around. Infantry there are too many green and badly motivated infantry in that formation for an infantry assault. I saw the forest as an obstacle and not a route to conduct an assault. It helps if you capture some screenshots when you run into a problem. I have FB for some years and never run into the problem you experienced. Happy gaming. PS armor are not affected as badly as infantry with morale issues. Veterans, Crack and Elite make better spotters apart from that they are just like regular units if you plot fire orders. I said if you plot, better let the TacAI do the decision making. I found in the beginning that over macro managing made playing a frustrating experience.

Which scenario? At most distance covered is 4 km. To dismount is the logical way to go. In my test above the first truck covered 500 mtr on fast in one minute. Fast translates 30 km/hr. Most trucks got green for mobility same or better than some tanks. Little is gained by sticking to the roads.

Battle for Normandy tutorial. Select all vehicles and figure the route. The +key selects the next vehicle. Zoom in select the way point, drag it in the correct position. Allow 15 seconds between vehicles. With practice it takes less than a minute.

Best done from camera position 5, zoom in and out with the mouse wheel.

Superman comics have nicer pictures than the collected works of Charles Dickins. One is literature, its richness beyond comprehension of year 2. The dealbreaker for people is an animation of a guy with a spanner. In CM it just says immobilized which is sufficient. I just broke my resolution but resolutions are made to be broken. I am happy to give tips. I don't lose against the AI playing on Iron, so we must do something right.

Thanks for the link and the tip. I just wish Battle Front would give us that option when we buy the game.

The Russians gave scant regards to the 'Hearts and Minds Battle'. That's what you get by indiscriminately bombing and killing. IMO he explains it very well.

T72's going for a bargain price. I must say the BMP3 in Black Sea impresses me. But I stick with my Mazda 4WD. Putin pushes Russia's combat-tested arms for export (msn.com)

How many play on Iron? Once I did, I never looked back. It is not about winning it is to come up with a model which works. If it is not possible in real life we don't do it. For us 'Hotseat' on Iron, play a few months later reverse the roles and it is possible some battles were not meant to be won. I wish we could play Campaigns on 'Hotseat'.

Move them till something start shooting. Task in a typical scenario not to find the enemy but how far the main force can advance before adapting battle formations.

Bankrupt! Russia fails to pay military reservists, civilian laborers brought into Ukraine (msn.com)

Maybe a Russian Romeo who wants to impress his Ukrainian girlfriend. The epic of the Trojan horse didn't happen far away from this venue. More to the direction of Turkey. This is the stuff for the movies.

It was pointed out to fix a thrown track would take a lot longer than two hours. But if you like to play 1943 go to Graviteam this period is not covered by CM. I won't be commenting on Graviteam on a BF forum any longer. I own most CM games and it will keep me busy for some time to come.

Using mortars in direct fire mode. Scenario Road to Nijmegen first mission Battle for Normandy. It seems they are still using spotting rounds shooting at tentative contacts generated by a different fire team of his platoon. It is only after the first minute the direct fire mission lands on target. So I question or the wide pattern could actually be ranging shots. Who is doing the spotting any HQ or a proper FO.

Clean the mouse or check the settings occasionally I give a double mouse click unintentionally.

Interesting documentary about a convoy. Its length is some 4km so it will cover a large map. Unlikely it will ever become a scenario. The unit is one of the kind which is hardly modelled in CM. I found it interesting and enjoyed it. The rescue of the stranded trucks would make a small scenario.

How do you do area fire if you fire direct? If you use a spotter, he will use the off-map fire direction centre.

The tanks are the main force in the battle and the infantry support them. Find the approach in which a company of tanks in battle formation can enter Chaumont. WW2 was won by area fire and attrition. If you try tactics which work in CF2 or Black Sea, it doesn't end well. I saw that wood as an obstacle. It is not a hard battle to win. I can give some spoilers. The Germans are heavily outnumbered, the giveaway is when you kill the first outpost. They are Paratroopers among the best infantry they had. Tank losses don't affect the morale of infantry better lose a vehicle than a life.

I see you need to contact players who specialize in editing. I am not one of them.

I would advice to follow this guy on YT
