Am baffled re the ideal video settings as in all other ways I have great visuals of CM games on my monitor. Yup - will work on that. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JulianJ Posted September 18, 2018 Share Posted September 18, 2018 Here's my perfectly-executed river crossing from Brutal: not a man nor vehicle lost getting over the river under cover of smoke. Of course it all went a bit downhill after that. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Was it that all the focus was on the crossing and there was no plan of what to do next? Or was there nasty unexpected surprises?) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JulianJ Posted September 18, 2018 Share Posted September 18, 2018 Not really, just the usual CMBS snafus and deadly fire. I got one of the wagons blown up with the infantry inside from a keyholed position and others were ground down by fire. took a few risks that didn't pay off. I was able to flush enough of the enemy out to get some more footsloggers safely across one of the bridges further up the river, but the time ran out and it ended in a draw. If I'd had another 15 or so minutes I think I would have won as I was holding most of the objectives. So just another bloody day at the office 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Erwin Posted September 18, 2018 Share Posted September 18, 2018 Yeah... I have had horrible experiences getting carriers blown up with passengers. Keep hitting myself to remember (whenever one can) always dismount passengers b4 putting a carrier in harm's way. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JulianJ Posted September 19, 2018 Share Posted September 19, 2018 (edited) Yes, me too. The problem is it is tempting, and was in the scenario, to rush forward by vehicle into cover in the town buildings before the smoke evaporated then debus. The big road parallel to the river was covered by enemy fire, so men going across on foot copped it too. Just one of the pleasant command dilemmas we CMBS players love to have.

Kaunitz Posted October 1, 2018 Share Posted October 1, 2018 (edited) Not directly related to the game itself, but a small collection of youtube links that might be pretty usefull for people like me who are not very familiar with warfare after WWII.

Erwin Posted November 14, 2018 Share Posted November 14, 2018 Good video - like the way you stayed down at ground level for the action. It's strange that some seem to play from level 4 or higher as one can't enjoy the graphics etc from up there. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chudacabra Posted November 19, 2018 Share Posted November 19, 2018 A Bulat reverses with two of my T-72's on a hill watching over the terrain. The Bulat fires and destroys one of my tanks, and one of my T-72's fires on an already destroyed Bulat. Seconds later, the surviving T-72 destroys the Bulat as it attempts to escape. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ctcharger Posted December 16, 2018 Share Posted December 16, 2018 (edited) While it lacks drama, I finally figured out how to see who did what and got my first enemy surrender (where the end game screen just pops up). Overall, a minor victory but I am just starting out so I will take it! Took too many losses which I believe could have been avoidable or at least many of them were. Reminds me of Pavlov's House in Stalingrad. You shall NOT pass!! (which is Gandalf I know) So I quit playing to go watch the Brown's with 20 minutes left in the game (They won!) and then woke up for the last 20 minutes of this game. Kept my guys spread out to avoid airtstrikes (don't bunch up, no straight lines!) Whew! What a freaking game. Going to read up on the subject and relax today and enjoy the win... maybe do the training again...maybe buy some of the other titles...
