Phoenix Posted June 27, 2000 Share Posted June 27, 2000 No, Im not kidding!! I'm playing the Arhnem battle as the Brits. So there I am watching as an armored car comes across the bridge, my Piat takes it out. Ok. Next turn. About this time I start hearing the hatch popping open on it. Over, and over again. Crew members starting getting out. And I mean LOTS of them. Just like the clown car at the circus! I lost count after some 20+ crew got out of that thing. The got mowed down immediately....but it was the weirdest thing. This went on for 2 or 3 turns. Finally it stopped. Here's a picture - So.....anyone seen that before??? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Schrullenhaft Posted June 27, 2000 Share Posted June 27, 2000 I haven't played the designed scenarios (saving for double-blind PBEMs), so I haven't seen this. However the "armored clown car" description is damn funny and apt. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hnh3_cm Posted June 27, 2000 Share Posted June 27, 2000 This was the 12th Panzerclownische Division, hastily thrown together in desperation at Arhnem. Highly effective at blocking bridges and causing incapacitation of the enemy by means of fits of laughter. They were a product of the psychological warfare branch. Really! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jeezus, I think some of them have like "43 casualties inflicted". I was worried they'd run out of ammo. I'm telling ya, it was wild.

Joe Shaw Posted June 28, 2000 Share Posted June 28, 2000 WHAT is the problem here? Obviously there were a whole ****load of Panzer crew hiding under the bridge with a manhole in the deck. The AC cleverly faked an incapaciting hit, stopped on top of the manhole, then opened the bottom escape hatch ... never mind. Man that is funny Joe 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tao Xian Posted March 19, 2001 Share Posted March 19, 2001 I found this doing research into spontaneously generating crew. I have that same problem, though not with such a massive effect. I usually see one or two extra crew members floating about. Mine have all been in quick battles. Has anyone esle found this? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
