Ted Posted August 28, 2014 Share Posted August 28, 2014 This may have been brought up before but Why no DShK machine guns or GAZ-AA trucks? I was a big fan of the DShK's in CM1. They did a very good job against halftracks and armored cars. Edit Let me rephrase this. In the manual under "What's New in Combat Mission : Red Thunder" it says: "M1985 Nagant revolver,TT-30 pistol, Model 1891 rifle, STV-40 rifle, PPSh,PPS-42, and PPS-43 submachine guns, the DP, DPM, Maxim 1910, SG43, and DShK machine guns." Only I do not find a description of the DHsK at the end of the manual describing Soviet Heavy Weapons (only the M1910 and the SG43) and I cannot find one on the Soviet TOE in a Quick Battle either as a Specialist Team or attached to an infantry unit. Has anybody used one? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael Emrys Posted August 29, 2014 Share Posted August 29, 2014 This question came up a couple of months ago, and the answer provided was that it was accidentally left out of the final compiling of the code, an oversight that will be corrected in the upcoming patch.

Michael Are you talking about the Dshk or both? Because this is the first I've heard of the GAZ AA trucks being left out "by mistake"... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeyD Posted August 29, 2014 Share Posted August 29, 2014 No GAZ AA trucks, at least not for the initial release. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oddball_E8 Posted August 30, 2014 Share Posted August 30, 2014 No GAZ AA trucks, at least not for the initial release. That's what I thought Eagerly awaiting the big twelve just to finally test out my sound for it... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael Emrys Posted August 30, 2014 Share Posted August 30, 2014 Are you talking about the Dshk or both? Elementary, my dear Oddball. Note for future reference: If I had meant both I would have used 'they' and not 'it'. I realize such linguistic precision is not common practice on this board, but I do try to raise the level wherever I can. Michael 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Michael OK, you asked for it You are correct in that it is obvious you cannot be talking about both. However 'it' is ambiguous as to which object you refer by 'it'. The last noun group was the AA truck, so you might have been meaning that. Pedants rule! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael Emrys Posted August 30, 2014 Share Posted August 30, 2014 Pedants rule! Point taken. On the other hand, since the DShK was the only item mentioned in the subject line, that sort of loads the dice in my favor. Michael 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sailor Malan2 Posted August 30, 2014 Share Posted August 30, 2014 I am not sure I have read the grammar rule on titles versus text in on-line fora. Score draw maybe 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
costard Posted August 30, 2014 Share Posted August 30, 2014 Nope, Emrys loses by default. You might say that losing is his base state, the one he always returns to. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You've been drinking too much of that cheap Australian beer. Or battery acid maybe, hard to tell the difference between them.

John Kettler Posted August 31, 2014 Share Posted August 31, 2014 Sailor Malan2, Full marks for using "fora" rather than the more common (am guilty and ought to do things correctly) "forums." Study Latin? Just today a housemate brought me a quote I'd not seen before: Nemo me inpune lacessit. You might like it. There are quite a few Latin translation sites which can sort it out for you. Had to use one myself. Latin taken in high school, even four years of it, doesn't hold up well when unused for decades. Oddball_E8, Here's an acoustic benchmark--in the form of a superb quality Hi-Def clip with the beast on close-in display. Quite distinct when compared to the classic Browning M2 HMG. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iW6tLG-XFT4 Regards, John Kettler 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sailor Malan2 Posted August 31, 2014 Share Posted August 31, 2014 Yep, Latin from age 9 to 12, almost to Uk O level standard. Sadly undone by 30 years of neglect! And the phrase you quote is well know in Uk: it is the motto of various Scottish regiments, and on the Royal arms of Scotland 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
