Guest KwazyDog Posted June 28, 1999 Share Posted June 28, 1999 Hi guys. Ive just been reading about how you are handling campaigns in a previous thread and i think it sounds great! I only played the grand campaign in CC3 once because of the way it was structured. But anyway, CC3 is totally another topic Just a quick question about CM campaigns I havnt seen asked. Will combat damage (to buildings, etc), and knocked out vehicles be retailed between battles. Im mainly thinking from the perspective that if a road through a forest gets block by damaged vehicles, will it become clear next time you are there, or will you need to find an alternate route? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Lokesa Posted June 28, 1999 Share Posted June 28, 1999 can't remeber for sure, but I believe tanks have the ability to push knocked out vehicles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fionn Posted June 28, 1999 Share Posted June 28, 1999 I remember it being mentioned that tanks can and will be able to push vehicles out of the way if they are blocking a path. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Big Time Software Posted June 28, 1999 Share Posted June 28, 1999 Damaged/destroyed stuff will move over from one battle to the next. However, depending on the circumstances, a lightly damaged vehicle might be back in action. Steve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Big Time Software Posted June 28, 1999 Share Posted June 28, 1999 Also, some knocked out vehicles, provided they did not burn, can be recovered and returned to the campaign (a few battles later) if the wreck is within friendly lines. This gives the German the incentive to pump shells into wrecked Shermans to make sure they burn. Charles Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest KwazyDog Posted June 29, 1999 Share Posted June 29, 1999 Sounds great, its good to see that you guys are really manking sure that the game behind the graphics is as realistic as it can possibly be! Thats something that has been lacking in wargames for some time. I like the fact you can recover vehicles too. It make sure you make them burn, and also encourages you to hold on to them where possible. I really like the campaign structure, with the larger map on which you battle. Out of curiousity, is the pushing of vehicles like the guys mentioned in too? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Big Time Software Posted June 29, 1999 Share Posted June 29, 1999 Not in yet so far as I know. The last build I had screwed me over because of this I was moving 2 Jagdpanthers through some really thick woods, but a Bazooka knocked out my Puma. I had to backtrack the armor 500m back to the starting area, take a side road, and then 500m up to the front via a different way. Had the pushing feature been in I could have nudged the Puma out of the way. Well, at least it underscored the importance of having this feature!

Guest Lokesa Posted June 29, 1999 Share Posted June 29, 1999 There was this trick for the Son Bridge map in CC2 where you'd rush a halftrack onto the bridge where it would be destroyed thus trapping all your opponents armor on the far side and basically negating them. Not that I have ever stooped so low, just a story I heard from a friend of a friend of a friend Although I tend to take advantage of situations like that I'm glad we won't be seeing it in CM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
