Ron Posted October 12, 2000 Share Posted October 12, 2000 I'm currently playing the Carentan op by email. It is the last battle(#9) and I set up the Germans to defend the city. On my first plot I was checking some units forward of the main line when I noticed foxholes right beside them, this being the time foxholes are 'created' I wasn't too suprised. Then looking further afield I see more and more foxholes, just created, ones I don't have any LOS to but are still 'there' and can be seen by me. So I know now where my opponent setup, his areas of concentration and likely avenues of attack, effectively ruining this last battle and the op. In my mind this is intel I shouldn't have and is something I hadn't noticed before in the previous battles. I still have the save files if BTS is interested. Has anyone else noticed this?

The Germans lost a lot of ground during the previous day's battles. Their old positions are several hundred meters further ahead. Ron PS I should add that we skipped the night battle and the foxholes were not there during my setup phase.

RudeLover Posted October 13, 2000 Share Posted October 13, 2000 I believe that I've seen this too vs. the AI, but I don't have the save files. It was the ops Utrechtseweg and McKinley's Bn, with an earlier release of CM, and I could see foxholes that should have been way out of my LOS (incl. behind buildings, tall pines, etc). Haven't seen this more recently, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
