dbsapp Posted July 11, 2021 Share Posted July 11, 2021 Yesterday I played one of the most - and maybe the most epic -CM battles I witnessed so far "Storming the Castle" from "Broken Shield" Campaign. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Artkin Posted July 11, 2021 Share Posted July 11, 2021 (edited) LTC Darges is loving it too man. 2nd Platoon however, not so much!

chuckdyke Posted July 12, 2021 Share Posted July 12, 2021 Soviet Snipers are worth their weight in gold in F&R. I worked out tactics for them. It seems to work they also make nearby armored units spot a lot better. Use them or you lose them. I very much respect the German MG42 once spotted they become a priority target. Perfect hard cover and concealment. Didn't identify an MG on this unit. TacAI did its thing. Will he make it to the foxhole? Lend & Lease Valentine they don't have an MG so innovated with a 6pounder HE. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However on loading up several saves, I see only a shadow from the open hatch slightly further back, but no shoulder. Odd. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I went a took a look that same evening and, similarly, could not see any shoulders sticking out. It could be some weird shadow or it happens so quick we don't register it but you happened to capture it. As you say, odd ... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chuckdyke Posted July 13, 2021 Share Posted July 13, 2021 Russian Platoon Attack on German Foxholes. The Soviet Forces have a lack of radios. There is only one method and that is their riflemen firing and hoping that nearby support units will spot the enemy too. Mosin-Nagant range 300-350 meters. Difficulty Iron. The Germans must have noticed my maneuver to expose themselves like this. Inside the first 20 seconds rifle fire suppresses. At the end of the turn the Germans start to break and give up their position. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now you can post pics to your heart's content and know that it only cost your soul. Seriously, I've been using Imgur for that last 18 months and I haven't even had a single email from them let alone any increase in spam ...

Erwin Posted July 17, 2021 Share Posted July 17, 2021 (edited) Reminds me of that scene in "Monk" (old series) when Mr. Monk has to stop and read the fire extinguisher directions to make sure he's doing exactly what they say. "Wait... wait... it says I have to hold the Faust in my left hand exactly 15 degrees in an up direction."

Yes, it's the CMRT Winter Mod, or possibly Winter '44 Mod. I'm not sure how it interacts with any recent F&R snowy effects etc. but it seems to work. I think there was an original Winter Mod which was developed and added to over a few years. @kohlenklau was one of those involved I think, so perhaps he can fill us in on the fine details. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
