Are servers dead? I'm getting the message that my game should be updated to 1.03 and I can't log in (I'm playing Steam version that was updated long time ago)

So there is no need for password? I feel I should learn more about those things before playing online.

Does pbem++ (through server) allow viewing .bts file?

Probably! seems like it.

Sure, at least they could spot something.

And don't forget about Principality of Monaco and The Holy See. I would love to play on the side of Swiss Guard with halberds against t-64.

Soldiers who talk like Aragorn versus soldiers who talk like Orks from Mordor!

No, Dutch should save the world from Red Scare this time. They got hungry for action after Britain pushed them out of their barbarian lands possession.

OMG, your mighty leader was offended? Thats the reason for serious investigation. I guess those trolls who made that Youtube video should be arrested for mocking Him. It's time to show how democracy works! And my...what... "pro-Russian\anti-Western track record"?.. lol man you really have this totalitarian North Korean style thinking.

Dutch will be included in upcoming 17th century rabid colonialism and brutal genocide expansion.

I really think that you are speaking with some imaginable guy arguing over things that exist only in your head. I'm curious how did you come from Youtube video to all this "democracy" stuff.

I just tried to express my admiration for your progressive democracy and your young and brave leader, who was not only democratically elected, but also happens to be the son of the former Prime Minister. Such a good boy.

Beautiful!

The main problem of Graviteam's games is tactical phase on the map before 3d battles. It's really confusing. The in mission interface is ok, and yes, it basically free of micromanagement, especially comparing to CM.

The main benefit is that the game will remain in your steam library thus making it much easier to install\reinstall without potential difficulties with retrieving your battlefront account, emailed key, downloading the installation package etc. The con is launching process takes a bit longer time, plus some of the products may be first released here and on Steam later (I hope they will be released simultaneously, but who knows).

The more you save\load the less its fun. I only recently got used to playing without reloading and enjoying the pain. Try replaying the mission you know well first and you will reach enlightenment.

1) intuitively I dislike the content 2) I also don't like the idea of banning everything what I or other people dislike

That's very consistent with what I said here several times. Food supplies contamination is an interesting detail. It's quite obvious that USSR didn't plan war and was hardly capable of winning if it begun due to severe force inbalance and huge Western advantage. But I was really surprised (not really) how well Western propaganda made people believe that they are threatened by mighty and unstoppable Soviet Union.

T64 wheels bug:

That's intresting, I've always wondered how those wargames looked like. Sounds like D&D! (though I never played it)

It would be interesting to read.

If I were such purist I would never buy a single modern title of CM. But here I am! Anyway people make top much ado about 60 bucks.

It was not proven a myth in 2015... In fact so-called Panfilov's 28 story deals only with relatively small episode of Panfilov's division actions and based on propaganda article that was published during the war. Not surpising at all that such article was not factually correct and was written to rise the spirit of soldiers fighting at the front line, not to be peer reviewed. It so happened that article gained huge pupularity and people mentioned in it were posthumously awarded Heroes medals. But after the war it turned out that some of them were still alive. That initiated official investigation in 1948 that proved that the article was not a historical research or beholder's evidence, but sort of fictional short story vaguely based on the real events. Those documents became publicly available in 1980s. It is the historical fact that Panfilov's division played a major role in Moscow's defense, suffered heavy casualties and managed to slow down Wehrmacht advance, which by all accounts is a trully heroic action. Time after time "sensational evidence" that 28 story is "false" emerge in mass media and produce yet another "scandal". This happened again in 2015 before the movie hit the screens.
