BloodyBucket Posted April 9, 2001 Share Posted April 9, 2001 Your effort at micromanagement of this board will lead to gamey and ahistorical situations in CM. I would illustrate my point but my computer wouldn't be able to handle the processing power needed. Besides, I think it is really outside the scope of this game, so why bother with a reply?

Olle Petersson Posted April 9, 2001 Share Posted April 9, 2001 A more relevant phrase to abolish: "Phrases I'd Like to see Abolished" Olle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Abolished!?? These phrases should be required! Every time someone wants to suggest a new feature for CM, he should be required to first prove that the new feature is within the scope of CM, is historical, won't be gamey, won't lead to micromanagement, and can be implemented by regular computers likely to be owned by CM players.

Maximus Posted April 9, 2001 Share Posted April 9, 2001 Actually I thought the phrase: "FIX OR DO SOMEFINK!" should be abolished. J/K! I couldn't live without that one. [ 04-09-2001: Message edited by: Maximus ] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kanonier Reichmann Posted April 9, 2001 Share Posted April 9, 2001 How about T and E 0331s 0302s and 11Bs So in this context: "Since the MMGs are mounted on tripod with T and E, all the Machine Gunners would have to do is bump his gun left (mg 1/2) or right (mg 3/4) to deliver accurate flanking fire. The closer the enemy would get the more effective the fire. 0331s 0302s and 11Bs know exactly what i'm talking about." I've got absolutely no bloody idea what X00's talking about! Regards Jim R.

Windopaene Posted April 9, 2001 Share Posted April 9, 2001 Well sure you want to ban some of those words. Then your opponents couldn't complain when you send your Gerbiltruppen on the attack with a Panther for support. Cause we all know that a Panther would never have been used with mountain troops!
