c3k Posted February 3, 2016 Author Share Posted February 3, 2016 Funny, I haven't had issues with fog effect for ages. Maybe it's graphics card related. Looks like its only happening beneath the mud tile. Let me investigateIt's running on an R9 390 w/Crimson 16.1 driver. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AttorneyAtWar Posted February 3, 2016 Share Posted February 3, 2016 Good luck Ken, I see first blood is on Banemans side which of course doesn't matter when it only makes your troops more enraged and blood thirsty. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

c3k Posted February 3, 2016 Author Share Posted February 3, 2016 (edited) LOL...yeah, I saw it. My men felt it. It was far worse watching it than living it. Really. I'm envious of my men.

c3k Posted February 3, 2016 Author Share Posted February 3, 2016 Okay, one track bogged. No biggie. I'll get them unstuck. They're covered by smoke and near the village. Sweet. Hmmm. These men met their fate. They may not have wanted that fate, but that's the strand of the web they got. Thankfully, I was able to back trace where the fire came from. Now I know that Baneman has some autocannon somewhere in the fog. Good job, men!More... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
c3k Posted February 4, 2016 Author Share Posted February 4, 2016 Ahh, where was I? Oh, yes... This wasn't too bad. He's pushing The Dell, has a foothold in the village at the close end to him, and has light forces near Big Field. We seem to've analyzed the terrain in a similar manner. Lori's Mound is what we both desire. I have it: he wants it. Jealous Hun...The Dell will be a grinder. I want to firebreak along the road in The Dell. I may try to press against his men. I'll swing between the village and The Dell, and backdoor him! Err, something like that. Bugger all, I said the wrong thing, didn't I?Funny: he seems to have a lot 'schreckmen. How gamey is that? I'd like to get my flamer into action. That'd be exciting to watch! They're going to keep the church between them and the shooter, and maybe they'll survive. If so, it'll be good to squirt some flame across the street. We'll see... Ken 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Macisle Posted February 4, 2016 Share Posted February 4, 2016 ... The first paragraph of this image caption deserves a gold star for achieving full points for double entendre. So, here's one that seems to have seen Lori's Mound itself:Great stuff, c3k!Looks like I picked the wrong week to stop reading AARs at work! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heinrich505 Posted February 4, 2016 Share Posted February 4, 2016 c3k, Amazing action. This is great. Another showcase for CMFB. Wild and crazy as ever. Pretty much non-stop - I love it. Top marks!!! Heinrich505 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Michael Emrys Posted February 4, 2016 Share Posted February 4, 2016 Yeah, who is this anyway and what has she done to get a geographical feature named after her mound? Youth wants to know.Michael 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
General Jack Ripper Posted February 4, 2016 Share Posted February 4, 2016 I heartily approve of this use of area fire. To quote Starship Troopers: 'You're not paid to bring ammo home with you.' 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your commentary is a killer. Loving every minute of it.

c3k Posted February 5, 2016 Author Share Posted February 5, 2016 Right! I've just gotten a chance to watch the turn. THIS is why CM is such a great game! There is mayhem! There is bravery! There is, alack, cowering! Bullets, shells, screaming, yells: all of it in one beautiful 60 second ballet.Baneman gets in some licks, but Lori's Mound is unsullied! My men create some death and destruction in the ranks of the grey-clads, as well.There is much more meat here than I expected. I'll have to carve this turn apart and use screenshots to show slices of action. It may take me a bit to digest all of this. I'll chew it over and have some screenies, anon...Ken 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

c3k Posted February 5, 2016 Author Share Posted February 5, 2016 (edited) Turn 44:00 to 43:00A focus at time 43:15 Ah, kind words. I shall reward them. (I find that the little people appreciate it when I grant them a boon. Consider this to be boonish.)Here, then, is a close up of a little vignette which played out in the last 15 seconds of the previous turn... Ahh, that was nice. I did not know that had happened. Baneman, like the guilty dog he is, couldn't help but let me know about it. I had been focused on my halftrack getting 20mm autocannoned into scrap metal. This was a nice balance...One thing I liked about this was the visible tunnel effect. Well, that, and the canister effect.KenEdited: Gah. I used "center" twice in the same sentence. That's what I get for doing this on such short coffee. Edited February 5, 2016 by c3k 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
