Cpt B M Deleted Posted June 15, 2000 Share Posted June 15, 2000 I've been told by people it, "might be" this or it, "might be that." I need to know for sure. Can you fit a whole squad in an assault boat? More than one? Perhaps two? How many HQ units can be placed in there? What about specialist teams like, flamethrowers and mortars?

KiloIndiaAlpha Posted June 15, 2000 Share Posted June 15, 2000 I think most of the boats will hold 1 Captn Manieri and enough pizza for two weeks at sea. ------------------ Dulce Et Decorum Est Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrapGame Posted June 15, 2000 Share Posted June 15, 2000 Does that depend on how many toppings the Pizzas have? What if one of the toppings is anchovies? Will that make the boat move faster? ------------------ CrapGame out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greg Scurlock Posted June 15, 2000 Share Posted June 15, 2000 Capt. If I knew the answer I'd tell you. You ask what seems to me to be a legit question and all you get is a bunch of wiseass ****. I don't understand why someone who knows doesn't answer the F*****g question............sorry, to much coffee this morning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What's the score if there's am MG42 in the boat, what will be the max speed x-stream, down stream and up stream? (With and without a full load of ammo) and, more inmportantly, will it keep up with a standard inf boat? ------------------ Dulce Et Decorum Est Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Los Posted June 17, 2000 Share Posted June 17, 2000 The assault boats in CM are not HIGGINsS boats or LCI,s etc. Think more along the lines of the rickety little sh*tboxes from A Bridge Too Far. Los Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Speedy Posted June 17, 2000 Share Posted June 17, 2000 Oh bugger this, none of you are asking the right bloody questions! The right questions are. 1. Do the boats come supplied with fishing rods and tackle? 2. Is there enough ice in the boat to keep two slabs of beer cold for about 4 hours? 3. And probably most important is there a pub near the river/sea? (just incase we can't be bothered putting the boat in the water) ------------------ IN VINO VERITAS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Los Posted June 19, 2000 Share Posted June 19, 2000 1. Yes, it's all Zebco stuff IIRC however the probelm is that all Marine life (inc. USMC) is currently NOT modelled in CM release 1. 2. Sorry, no. We found in beta testing that with a full sqad on board an assault boat, adding even one slab of ice would capsize the thing. 3. WHile there isn't a pub terrain tile per se, there were several in house mods tested during beta however we found that any unit that enters a pub will not leave duringthe duratino of the scenario. We also found that all units with LOS of a pub will immediately break and rout into the pub. Finally we found that for some ofdd reason AI would not tgt pubs regardless of player use of tgt command so they were removed from the release version until we could get to the bottom of this porblem.
