Thanks. Happily I'm the US defenders, so my opponent has the traffic troubles (hopefully). Took us both ages to set up though.

You make a fair point. But now you make me want to re-load WOT just to see that map. And be called a noob w****r yet again . -
RT Unofficial Screenshot Thread

No chance of a conversion to CM I suppose? -
Most of us only have two Steve, how many did you have? Or is that a hint that you're not the average guy
-
Fair point, I hinted at the same hoping for a reply. Seems 'our' (BFC's) lovely game is not for everyone, but it is for sure keeping me occupied .
-
I agree, over to you then ? Must check if I'm up to date on your great stuff my friend. And apologies that my testing is a little slow, I've been delayed by a huge commitment in Normandy. KG Bohm to Le Rocher to be precise.

Not sure, the tanks were described as trophies, brought from Smolensk (a long story). Desperate times but maybe they were placed there already and not put up as part of any defense? Still not sure about that gun though...
-
And how we both love a bit of Royalist fervour . Mk V's if I believe the internet. A couple of them had changed hands and as you say museum pieces, but quite a story. Here's another pic, but the gun doesn't look original .

I think there's a time limit on editing posts. No idea what it is though.

How about this: https://ghdi.ghi-dc.org/sub_image.cfm?image_id=2580 From 1948 not 1933 - I was wondering about the state of some of the buildings...

What can I say? I'm not done with it by any means, but that's a reply . Not sure why your guys would just start moving into Chaumont unless you'd given them orders to do so? But that's also a reply . Anyway, just keep going and ask questions here, watch Youtube videos or whatever works. It's well worth the learning curve in my opinion.

Love that middle shot Nigel, excellent. Yeah me too, round about then in Newcastle City Hall. More regular gigs were Hawkwind and Motorhead though .

2022, the Year In Preview!
Vacillator replied to Battlefront.com's topic in Combat Mission - General Discussion
Welcome @massi. You mean release on Steam I assume. I think the intention is/was to put CMBN on Steam next, to be followed by CMRT, but I may be wrong. If you're in a hurry you can get either direct from BFC now. And you should get both obviously , and in time (finances permitting) you will. CMRT was my first purchase, but I spend more time playing other people in CMBN. Love both, and CMFB and CMFI. -
2022, the Year In Preview!
Vacillator replied to Battlefront.com's topic in Combat Mission - General Discussion
+1 from me. I know there are others who feel the same ( @kohlenklau deserves special mention ) but what I don't know is how many and how the likely purchase numbers stack up for BFC. I'd buy early war stuff for sure, but then again I'll buy all of the above later war stuff as well. Just not the modern stuff (yet ). -
BF Forum; Bad new searching tool:'( ?)
Vacillator replied to STURM-FAKTION's topic in Combat Mission - General Discussion
I hadn't noticed but gave it a try. It was very, very slow for my first search (randomly it was '22.5', related to the degrees of Falaise's road mod) but much quicker on the second (Falaise). The results I got did not seem much different to what I would have got a few months ago, but of course I'm not sure. -
Metric 500 tonnes = 1.1 million pounds, but your point is still valid, even more so.

Not in the so-called high security buildings I was referring to .
-
You make a very good point, but I thought you lived in what we used to call the 'big house', where you can't get out of the front or the back door .

Thanks for the info, at my level all help is appreciated . -
RT Unofficial Screenshot Thread
Vacillator replied to mjkerner's topic in Combat Mission Red Thunder
Got them thanks. Might have a go at some myself - looking at the stretched star in the first bmp file I opened, is it just a case of trial and error to get it to look right in-game? -
RT Unofficial Screenshot Thread
Vacillator replied to mjkerner's topic in Combat Mission Red Thunder
Ah, got ya. I should have read it a bit more carefully. I did try War Thunder and also World of Tanks, but both were too arcadey, grindy, and full of people erm how shall I say it, making 'rude and derogatory remarks' about other players (including me ). Was I surprised by this, no, but it hastened the removal of both games from my computer. Also the 'fantasy tank' aspects didn't appeal to me as I like historical accuracy where possible. -
Cheeky! That is one unusual holiday photo .

SC Hansel & Gretel Crashing
Vacillator replied to Kwynn's topic in Combat Mission Battle for Normandy
Thanks for the clarification, must get around to that sometime, once I've finished not winning PBEMs as Axis in WimO's 82nd Airborne series and other PBEM odysseys... PC here as well anyway. EDIT: and welcome to @Kwynn -
SC Hansel & Gretel Crashing
Vacillator replied to Kwynn's topic in Combat Mission Battle for Normandy
Errrm, are you in the right place forum-wise? SC suggests Strategic Command and I can't see that battle in any CM2 WW2 titles? -
RT Unofficial Screenshot Thread
Vacillator replied to mjkerner's topic in Combat Mission Red Thunder
+1, needs to be released if not. And @Jace11 why don't you play RT? Just curious, as it's still one of my favourite titles (and it was my first).
