pazuzusmiles Posted July 28, 2012 Share Posted July 28, 2012 Hey does anyone know whether players of Combat Mission:FI will have the ability to check individual units kill histories like in Combat Mission Overlord and Barbarossa?? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YankeeDog Posted July 28, 2012 Share Posted July 28, 2012 Kill histories, yes. This feature is in CMBN now. One exception is that there is currently no way to see how many casualties were caused by off-map artillery assets. I have no idea whether anything will change to make this possible in CMFI, or whether this is even a practical thing to hope for given how the game engine is built. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YankeeDog Posted July 29, 2012 Share Posted July 29, 2012 You can only see it at the end of a battle. Just click the "Review Map" button from the victory screen, and then select any unit on the screen just as you would during normal gameplay. The kill stats for the currently selected unit will show in the lower left corner of the game window. You can see both friendly and enemy kill stats. It shows both kills for that specific battle, and also total kills for the campaign (if applicable). It's kind of fun to see who the big killers in your core force have been at the end of a campaign. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xian Posted July 30, 2012 Share Posted July 30, 2012 Although Off-Map artillery kills are not shown. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lt Belenko Posted July 31, 2012 Share Posted July 31, 2012 Although Off-Map artillery kills are not shown. +1 They all should be added to a FO whether the FO called the strike or not, just to provide a total. I guess we could add up all the units kills then subtract from the total to get the Off Mpp Arty totals. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess we could add up all the units kills then subtract from the total to get the Off Mpp Arty totals. This doesn't work because FOs and off-map artillery assets are no longer linked as they were in CMx1; you may have multiple batteries of off-map support and not even necessarily have a single dedicated FO unit in your OOB. And in a larger battle, you might have two or more dedicated FO units, with batteries that performed multiple missions, spotted by different FOs. Probably the best way to show off-map asset kills would be to display them in fire mission planning window somehow, but I have no idea how much time it would take to add this to the code. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
