Wako Posted June 27, 2000 Share Posted June 27, 2000 Has anyone else noticed this? I was messing around with this D-Day scenario I am creating (I've been having some play balance issues) and I finally managed to get a 14" spotter onto the beach and into action. All I can say is WOW! The explosions are HUGE! Take a look at this! Explosion 1 Explosion 2 I had a bazooka team about 50-80m away from a 14" explosion. Both team members gone instantly. I also had a US 44 Rifle squad about 90-120m away from the same explosion and they went from good morale with 11 men ok to broken with only two men left! The craters the rounds leave are HUGE! You could park a Tiger in one. The American gunners killed more Americans than they did Germans.... needless to say, use arty this large WITH CARE. ------------------ wako "All models are wrong - some are useful.'' - George E.P.

Zamo Posted June 27, 2000 Share Posted June 27, 2000 I discovered the same thing with 8" artillery in the invasion scenario I made. SLAM...and ten boats full of guys are gone! Bad...very bad...But pretty neat looking! Zamo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redleg Posted June 27, 2000 Share Posted June 27, 2000 National Gaurd Bureau blocks the pictures, HEHE . I cant see them til I get home. They probably have a problem with the name of the picture (14in) . Stupid Server Filters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Formerly Babra Posted June 27, 2000 Share Posted June 27, 2000 errr... fellas, fellas, fellas... use the big guns BEFORE you hit the beach (like an hour before). Guns that big should have shifted to inland targets long before your guys catch any shorts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pathfinder1 Posted June 28, 2000 Share Posted June 28, 2000 I used a 14" spotter in a "day after d-day" scenario I setup....YIKES!! blew the snot outta a coupla 50 mm PAK behind a road block...and their covering infantry... hehe, go for immersion and be one with the Germans getting shelled....nasty to say the least. I won't be using that spotter too much! LOL ------------------ this is pathfinder's evil twin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest ACTOR Posted June 29, 2000 Share Posted June 29, 2000 I am using 240MM rockets in one of the scenarios that I am building...I hate those short rounds. I have also found that area fire without LOS results in rockets raining down all over the damn place. You gotta love this game! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
penubly Posted June 29, 2000 Share Posted June 29, 2000 I do not know if they are included, but has anyone experienced any nebelwerfer fire? I am interested to see their effect. ------------------ Always with the negative waves, Moriarty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IntelWeenie Posted June 29, 2000 Share Posted June 29, 2000 While on the subject of rockets, what's the chances of getting Sherman Caiopes and the German PSW251/(somethingorother, the one with the 6 Nebelwerfers strapped to the sides) included in the future?

TP_Bomber Posted June 30, 2000 Share Posted June 30, 2000 First scenerio I played was called One cold day I think. I took German side and was given 210mm nebelwerfer rockets. Pretty amazing explosions and neat sound effects, but man do those things scatter. Dont even think about using them anywhere near your own troops. Not a very accurate weapon compared to tube artillery. <BLOCKQUOTE>quote:</font><HR>Originally posted by penubly: I do not know if they are included, but has anyone experienced any nebelwerfer fire?
