  1. I just noticed the same thing with my recon battalion in a scenario. I am guessing this is a mistake in the OOB. I can't imagine a formation carrying AT ammo on their IFVs which can't be used. Either the troops should have RPGs and can use the rockets or the ammo should be disposable RPG-18s same as used by the troops
  2. BTW, I finally sent in the help desk request last night to Slitherine. This Saturday morning Paulo was on the spot and sent a quick set of steps to solve the problem. It was uninstall game, clean registry keys w/a file he attached, install and activate main game and DLCs w/i 2.04 installer, check all is good and then install 2.06. Problem solved. Many thanks to Paulo for his Saturday morning help!
  3. I can see a cell tower from my home. My 2 year contract with Hughes is almost complete and I will try to get a cell service off that tower. Others have told me it is much better to use the cell service vs sat internet. So thanks, I am going to try to get the cell service.
  4. I am having the same problem. I had to re-install CMSF2. So I downloaded the 1.8 gig main file/DLC uploader plus the 2.06 . Then I installed main SF2 and activated all the DLCs. The multi-update activated all the DLCs. Unfortunately, none of the DLCs show as activated w/i the game. Main SF2 works but none of DLC scenarios appear activated w/i game. Now I am wondering if I will have to download all the DLC files which are also very large files??? My satellite internet w/20g data cap is not very happy with that idea. Just checking now and the very large DLC downloads are the same file as the main SF2 installer. I shouldn't have to download those. Looks like I need to file a helpdesk ticket as everything appears good but not working w/DLCs.
  5. They never demonstrate how to back up one of those monsters...especially with all hatches closed.
  6. Here is a screen shot. I had to compress it to get it under 1.953mb. The red arrow points at the building with the bad door. You can see the Norman Keep in the background. And it is the map from the Breaking out and Linking Up scenario of the Normandy game.
  7. PEB14, I will take a look this week at the Blitz and see if I can find some interesting scenarios that are medium or smaller. Maybe we can do some discussions on tactics as well. Should be fun!
  8. I think you must have had bad luck with your spotting. All but once, my tanks spotted first and knocked out every German tank with a single shot including the Tiger. Sounds like you are new to Red Thunder as well. I haven't played any of the regular scenarios yet and if you are interested, I would interested in playing some PBEM going in blind on the scenarios for both sides. Let me know if you are up for some blind scenario PBEMs. I will be watching that. Luckily I didn't lose a single platoon leader. So I didn't see the impact.
  9. Just finished it up with 19 minutes left in the game. Total victory w/my losses at 21 infantry and 1 T-34/85. German losses were at 98 infantry and 4 tanks. I believe it was the ISU-152 which took out the Tiger. I sent one weak platoon forward on my right to take the bridge and the other 2 stronger platoons up the center. The mass of my armor went in on the left. It was a training scenario and turns out the Germans were green vs my Russians as vets. Definitely could see the difference in spotting and accuracy. It was a lot of fun but I think it is going to get a lot tougher now that the training campaign is done.
  10. Yes, I did some map modding on Ageod Games. There was usually an underlying file which defined the attributes of the hex. I imagine something similar with CM2. If I could identify the house and link it to its file and if the file is accessible and editable, I could fix it. Otherwise BF would have to do it.
  11. Playing Normandy scenario Linking up and Breaking Out. I found a building with a front door that does not allow access. It actually caused a significant problem because my squad ran all the way down the whole row of buildings and then down the back of the building to enter from the rear door. How easy is it for me to fix something like this myself or is it a significant project?
  12. Here is the manual training warning about splitting rus squads: So no penalties with splitting as long as the squad elements remain within communications range of platoon leaders.
  13. Will do. I am about 15 minutes into the scenario. I might finish it this weekend but probably sometime next week.
