37mm Posted April 27, 2020 Share Posted April 27, 2020 2 minutes ago, AlanSA said: Excellent thanks. Always interesting to see how other players tackled a scenario once you yourself have completed it. In this case rather depressing given how few casualties you suffered in comparison to my effort. Although in my defence it was only my 3rd CMFI scenario. I'm still not too sure what happened with the sniper team or my mortar OP getting spotted (and the thing with setting up the mortar too close to the house was just embarrasing)... but overall it went better than I expected. I treated the Yanks like a really, really poor Syrian force & that seemed to end up being an appropriate mindset. Next mission looks trickier... I expect I'll mess up more in that one! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great little video... and a reminder just how good our combat mission games are. I'm pretty sure when I played this mission my casualties were quite a few more! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Freyberg Posted May 1, 2020 Share Posted May 1, 2020 The ongoing adventures of Corporal Bhatt My Indians in shorts are pinned down, from near... ...and far. But Corporal Bhatt, marksman, almost invisible in an overgrown hedge, patiently takes aim, and fires (this is his second kill). He then selects another target, who writhes in pain as Bhatt's bullet finds its mark again. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nice shots and a regular experienced sniper. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Erwin Posted May 1, 2020 Share Posted May 1, 2020 It's unusual that a Regular would be that effective. Am wondering how the +2 leadership and +2 physical condition attributes interact with his "Experience". The interactions have never been made clear by BF. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I took the advice of whoever it was that was talking about how to model Ghurkas and bumped up all their morale (a lot) and command bonus (a bit), but left the experience the same as it was 'out of the box' (Indian troops set on 'good' come in at surprisingly good quality - I've been enjoying using them). I've been noticing over recent QBs that buying command bonuses is more expensive in points than increasing experience (marginally), so it certainly makes a difference in certain situations. The morale makes a difference inasmuch as he's been sitting there for a while, missed quite a few shots (those two kills didn't come in a row), but has kept on firing away with no suppression despite quite a lot of MG fire slightly nearby.

That is interesting. And yes, if a sniper is untroubled, he does do better. Additionally. it seems that CM troops will take more chances and losses when fresh. But, when they start getting nervous one has to handle them with a lot more care as they'll run to safety much more readily. Seems like realistic behavior. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Erwin Posted May 18, 2020 Share Posted May 18, 2020 I started that campaign but only got through a few minutes of the beach landing. Great video... reminded me that I need to get back to it.

Sgt.Squarehead Posted May 24, 2020 Share Posted May 24, 2020 Really enjoying the vids, @37mm.....The CM:FI introductory mini-campaign is still one of my favourites, so it's cool to see it getting some attention. Good scenarios are good scenarios, regardless their vintage. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Warts 'n' all Posted May 24, 2020 Share Posted May 24, 2020 ? ... This isn't "The CM.FI introductory mini-campaign". Have you been in the bushes again Sarge? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
