kch001 Posted December 14, 2015 Share Posted December 14, 2015 great screenshots. Are you using any mods? I guess that you have maxed out the graphics settings. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Macisle Posted December 14, 2015 Share Posted December 14, 2015 great screenshots. Are you using any mods? I guess that you have maxed out the graphics settings. Thanks!Yes, I've got a ton of mods. For the flame HT, I'm using the SdKfz 251_16 Ausf D textures from the SdKfz 251 Ausf.D mega pack for CMRT by Aris.For settings, I'm using my usual play settings, which are everything maxed, except for Model Quality, which is on Excellent. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm very excited about it and will be an eager reader. RL is just keeping me in forum lurker mode right now as far as posting goes. Well, that is except between Bud, you, and Bil, I had a sudden screenie attack.Good luck in your battle! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Macisle Posted December 14, 2015 Share Posted December 14, 2015 The flame halftrack's fiery tongue rains down scorching pain and death on the enemy strongpoint as a team from 3rd Platoon bounds forward cautiously. The building occupants have had enough and those who can still move make a mad dash out the rear exit. The retreating GIs are unaware that elements of the German 2nd Platoon have taken up positions covering the street they must cross. Klein, a crack team leader from 3rd Squad, 2nd Platoon, has his veteran MG42 team open up on them. A GI goes down. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Macisle Posted December 14, 2015 Share Posted December 14, 2015 Those around the fallen GI do their best to evade the stream of hot lead honing in on them. Grüber's assault team from 2nd Squad, 3rd Platoon holds briefly while the halftrack finishes its attack on the building. Too many GIs are evading the MG fire from Klein's team! The halftrack ends its attack and moves forward to engage another position up the line. Grüber shouts for his men to advance on the house. They dash forward across the field. As the flame halftrack pulls away, Grüber and his men bear down on the building, hoping for a safe and successful hunt. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gnarly Posted December 16, 2015 Share Posted December 16, 2015 (edited) That's quite some Allied body count.... Be curious to know how many were directly flamethrower fatalities...?? I've never used one; how long (in seconds) would the flamethrower have been used against the building? Are we talking a whole turn, 30 seconds or 10 seconds?

I've never used one; how long (in seconds) would the flamethrower have been used against the building? Are we talking a whole turn, 30 seconds or 10 seconds?Probably all of them were FT casualties. I think I had the FT firing for 60 to 90 seconds spread across 2 turns. There were perhaps 5-7 blasts on the building.This is my first time using the FT HT. I did some testing earlier and it is extremely vulnerable to small arms fire. I don't think a single Allied bullet missed the gunners! So, I made sure to saturate the building/area with LMG fire prior to bringing in the HT. I think I had 3 LMG teams firing for 2-3 turns as prep.Basically, I see the FT HT is a super-specialized weapon -- something only to be used when the enemy is completely suppressed and it is safe to close to the 30 meter range. So, only for a situation like the one in my pics--an isolated strongpoint--or something like flushing the enemy out of concealment terrain.Super-cool when it works, though! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IICptMillerII Posted December 17, 2015 Share Posted December 17, 2015 Heres a scene out of a multiplayer battle involving 30th corps drive on Arnhem. As you can see, things are going less than stellar for the British:I thought this was a particularly brutal screenshot. The tankers were killed and their bodies decorated the sherman. Pretty brutal. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Macisle Posted December 17, 2015 Share Posted December 17, 2015 Interesting info. Here are the confirmed details on that FT attack:60 seconds of firing spread across 2 turns.9 blasts total, producing 9 casualties. Some blasts produced no screams. Others produced single or multiple screams. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They always seem to fall off after they're shot!I honestly think it was some kind of glitch. Our game was having some very slight delay/desync issues that I think contributed to the bodies appearing on the tank. Not really sure on the nuts and bolts of why it happened as I can only venture a guess. Glitch or not I thought it was interesting (albeit a bit morbid) and decided to pass it along! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
