tools4fools Posted September 20, 2002 Share Posted September 20, 2002 Thanks for Hans and Franz! It made my day start with a laugh! It was so much fun there at the preview. Good work to show all those screenshots for those who can't play the game yet! Marcus **** Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hoopenfaust2 Posted September 20, 2002 Share Posted September 20, 2002 Thats my watering hole, sir. You've probably been interrupted by my drunk Irish uncles who frequent both Pickwicks, and the New Edinburg Pub. Hopefully your physio isn't on Crichton St. or you'd have met my girlfriend (RMT) before me. I haven't seen any screens of our famous Waffen G-men. To the grogs, did the finnish army use the german helmet. The only pics I've seen of Finnish infantry are winter pics, where they have white hoods on.

Arioch Posted September 20, 2002 Share Posted September 20, 2002 Thanks for the pics But your IS-3, more like a IS-2 no ? And ever a IS-2 at 1942 :confused: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gud Posted September 20, 2002 Share Posted September 20, 2002 Originally posted by Molotov Cocktail: The Polish please (Die Polen bitte!)Screenshots please! Swoboda (Freedom) for Poland! Ok, they use Soviet armour, Soviet armour so they look like soviets (They were part of Soviet Armed forces like Czech and Yugoslav volunteers). Like Polish look like british in CMBO, in CMBO they had british uniforms ann british equipment (also some American armour). But maybe they have white polish eagle in T-34 tank.Yes ! Somebody please post a pic of LWP !!! Long live Rudy 102 !!! (I wonder how many got the joke ) BTW, Freedom in Polish is Wolnosc - so that makes Freedom for Poland - Wolnosc dla Polski. Swoboda means something more like "freedom of movement" - wolnosc is more psychological/political freedom. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BeauCoupDinkyDau Posted September 20, 2002 Share Posted September 20, 2002 The IS3 looks like an IS2. The IS3's turret looked like a dome (like the the modern russian T series of tanks do) Maybe it's one of those "saved model" thingies KwazyDog told us of. Something to be changed in the update? :confused: BTW, thanks guys for spending you play time giving us these pics!

veloboldie Posted September 20, 2002 Share Posted September 20, 2002 Long live Rudy 102 !!! (I wonder how many got the joke ) How about Szarik, the German shepard. I need to find out how to make a skin for Rudy 102. Funny thing is, I just finished watching "Czterej pancerni i pies" (Four tankmen and a dog) on DVD and discovered that it has sub titles in English. For those of you who have no idea what Gud and I are talking about, let me give you a brief synopsis. The 21 episode TV series "Czterej pancerni i pies" was filmed in the Communist Poland and is based on a book depicting fictional war adventures of four tank crew members and their dog as they are "liberating" Poland with their Russian comrades, rolling to victory towards Berlin. Leaving the geopolitical baggage behind, the episodes showed T-34 in action with all the sounds and close ups of cramped crew conditions inside this venerable tank. To see more of "Czterej Pancerni i Pies" see the DVD store at: http://www.polishfilm.ca/skok/dvds/groups/polish/c/4panc/4panc.html Picture of T-34 aka as Rudy 102 can be found at: http://film.onet.pl/F,7371,1,10,galeria.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And ever a IS-2 at 1942 :confused: It was chosen as a IS3, but perhaps it's one of those "still-to-be-done" vehicles. 1942: As mentioned before,the scenario was done with the editor to get vehicles from different years (e.g. you can't buy a KV-2 in 1945).

Andreas Posted September 20, 2002 Share Posted September 20, 2002 Well, here is Sgt. Nagorniy in his SU-100. A few minutes ago, he was happily busying himself shooting up King Tigers near Budapest, when suddenly this fiendish Vortex appeared, and sucked him in. 'Oh no, Comrade Driver 1st Class Pokorny! A Hitlerite Vortex is sucking us in.' he shouted, in true B-Movie fashion. Spewed out in what looks like Lithuania before the war he marvels at the Lithuanian birds and their racy pre-war clothing (not included in CMBB). But there! A clown-tank! It is none other than lEEt Unteroffizier Hartmann, Vanquisher of Parisian maidens, Hero of the Champagne cellar fight near Reims (after the surrender!). He happily eyed up the recently liberated Baltic Birds as well, when before him a Vortex appears. It spews out something he had never seen... 'Look Egon, it is a Stug on steroids. Look at the marvellous gun! Look at the marvellous armour... Look at the marvellous Soviet unit insignia. Wait a second...' But it is too late... Shouts of 'Sani!' 'Sani!' are the last that 4. PD hears of our hero Hartmann and his plucky little crew... 'No Hitlerite eyes up our maidens when I am around.' says Sgt. Nagorniy (Hero of the Soviet Union, proud Bearer of 89 different medals. Member of the Communist Party, father of 45 children, an unknown number in Lithuania). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mike8g Posted September 20, 2002 Share Posted September 20, 2002 Just had a look into the game: Confirmation! The IS3 still uses the textures of the IS2. So we'll have to wait for a patch. Marcus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ari Maenpaa Posted September 20, 2002 Share Posted September 20, 2002 What kind of armor penetration stats the best Soviet guns have (100mm and 122mm guns in particular)? Couple of screenshots from the status screens of SU-100 and IS-2M would be appreciated (and maybe ISU-152 too ). Anyway, thanks for all the nice pics.

illo Posted September 20, 2002 Share Posted September 20, 2002 Dammit CDV!!! Try to spot national insignia from finnish vehicles!! Censored, all censored!!! Damn germans! First you take our old symbol, you put it in your flag, you wave it around and do stupid things. Then you start to regret it, and forbid whole symbol! WTG!!! :mad: I hope they would paint pair of leather pants to your PzKpfw turrets! ok, ok... just CDV policies and possibly german law sucks. Ps. I could swear Von Rosen cross (finnish enblem)is NOT forbidden in germany. [ September 20, 2002, 01:20 PM: Message edited by: illo ] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gud Posted September 20, 2002 Share Posted September 20, 2002 I don't get it, the Finnish swastika originated from coat-of-arms of Von Rosen family (first FAF airplane was donated by Von Rosen). The Finns turned it down post 1945, but hey, it never was a Nazi symbol !!! Phurr !!! I'm glad that Poland is outside the CDVland and I can order US copy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prinz Eugen Posted September 20, 2002 Share Posted September 20, 2002 BTW, any Finns more in the know than I am on the subject of paint jobs ? I mean, is that the way the painting was done in the pics Mike8g posted ? From where did the grey come ? I thought it was light and dark green, plus brown ? Or am I completely, utterly wrong in here ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
