Windopaene Posted April 26, 2001 Share Posted April 26, 2001 Well I've got a Stuart in a PBEM who has racked up 2 Marder II 1 251/9 HT 1 Stu42 I was pretty proud of him, till he overlooked the 'Shreck hiding in the woods.... Posthumus Promotion I guess... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WRG Posted April 26, 2001 Share Posted April 26, 2001 Pah! Steven Spielberg won the war in less than two hours in Saving Private Ryan. And he got paid for it! Now that's what I call a victory tally. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bruno Weiss Posted April 26, 2001 Share Posted April 26, 2001 Where'd ya get the StuH42 there Windopaene? Hehe, last I checked, the StuH was licking his chops after polishing off one of them Yank infantry squads of yours. Yeah, tis true about the demise of the Marder's. Really strange things happened after v1.2. Prior to that, the Marders were a dependable and reliable AT weapon. Now, they bolt out into the open at the first sign of artillery, and only a machine gun is needed to knock them out, don't even waste a shell on them. Too bad really, it means about all the Germans have to depend on is turreted AFV's and towed AT's. I want the old Marders back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Panzer Leader Posted April 26, 2001 Share Posted April 26, 2001 I just now got a hetzer with my 50 cal. That's good enough for me since it was wreaking havoc on my troops! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dunnee Posted April 26, 2001 Share Posted April 26, 2001 I've had panthers rack up 40-50 infantry kills with an additional 10-12 AFVs knocked out, wish I could supply the hard evidence but I really don't care about kills, so long as the battle is won.

Gyrene Posted April 26, 2001 Share Posted April 26, 2001 Arnold single handedly killed over 200 baddies in the 1980's movie Commando. All this while smoking a cigar. Gyrene Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lcm1947 Posted April 26, 2001 Share Posted April 26, 2001 Believe it or don't. My Greyhound took out a Tiger tank. Yes, it did!!! I think I sat there stareing at the screen for 5 minutes looking back and forth at the Greyhound and the knocked out Tiger. WOW! That was cool. PS: It doesn't work like that most of the time, however. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loki Posted April 26, 2001 Share Posted April 26, 2001 I had a Panther hiding in cover out of site of any enemys, a tiger 30 meters ahead of it took a hit, and my Panther crew bailed without firing or recieving a single shot. This was the only instance I WANTED to shoot my own troops.The crew even ran out off the map after 2 turns. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is when i'd have given anything to save the turn sequence to replay it forever... Damn, this *would* be a feature. Cafard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gyrene Posted April 26, 2001 Share Posted April 26, 2001 Cafard, to save the turn sequence you want, just quit the game at that turn, go to your saved games folder, rename the Autosave game file with a unique name and voila! You have that turn saved for posterity forever! You'll be able to load it up in the "Play Game" menu Gyrene Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cafard Posted April 26, 2001 Share Posted April 26, 2001 !!! Is that as simple than that ??? I thought the Autosave was an automatic save at each turn end, *before* computation... So i supposed it was no use, as computation would be different each time. Wow, i'll try it as soon as i'm home Many thanks Gyrene. Cafard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Windopaene Posted April 26, 2001 Share Posted April 26, 2001 I thought I had gotten another one there Bruno, perhaps you're right. Hard to remember sometimes who has killed what... Not hard to remember that 'Shreck though :mad: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jgdpzr Posted April 26, 2001 Share Posted April 26, 2001 I had an SMG squad tally 36 infantry casualties and a Sherman, while taking only two casualties. In fact, that platoon accounted for over 60 infantry casualties IIRC, while only suffering three casualties. In the same battle, I also had a KT take out 5 Churchills, a Sherman and over a dozen infantry. I know, big deal, it's a King Tiger. Plus, this was against a new pbemer. It was still fun.
