panzermartin Posted January 5, 2011 Share Posted January 5, 2011 Maybe the tank can see you if you start running for instance but the chances to hit you, are slim. So many big trunks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sawomi Posted January 5, 2011 Share Posted January 5, 2011 Exact. I first posted wrong picture which shows only one in the CMSF pic. There where actually two I think. Now it looks much more random. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steiner14 Posted January 5, 2011 Share Posted January 5, 2011 Wow....ouch. After playing CMSF for so long where I hate to have even 3 casulties I am going to have to change my mindset on what it takes to win again! Indeed to massacer hopeless weaker oponents without adequate weapons from distance is not really war, although the well known "peace and freedom" bringers prefer to call it that way - and are shocked, if bullets suddenly do not fly only in one direction...

Did I miss something here? The forces Jon and I are using are pretty evenly matched up. I would take his armor over mine, given a choice, but it seems that has been equaled out by the quantity.

YankeeDog Posted January 5, 2011 Share Posted January 5, 2011 @Elvis: Steiner14 has apparently decided that this thread is an appropriate forum for an airing of his views regarding the recent foreign policy actions of the United States. You know what they say about trolls and the feeding thereof... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
undercovergeek Posted January 5, 2011 Share Posted January 5, 2011 would it be easier to lock these threads apart from access to Elvis and Jon S, so they can do their thing, and start a seperate discussion thread about what happens for the rest to join in with?

That appears to be a good idea as we have "Steiner" spouting his "Uber Alles" BS in one post - and his anti-US BS in another. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
para Posted January 5, 2011 Share Posted January 5, 2011 Totally agree i want to see the AAR N DAR not read post after post of someone else telling them how it should be done.

Although the post about the 'bringers of freedom and peace' was pretty funny. We understood that when we began this. To help with that Moon has created a links to each new post embedded in my initial post. So when you come to the thread you only have to look at my first post and there are links to each update from there and you can avoid everything else. As the guy posting things I am enjoying hearing questions and comments with each post and I believe there are others that are picking up various aspects of the game from reading those in addition to my posts.

BFCElvis Posted January 5, 2011 Author Share Posted January 5, 2011 In one of the screenshots you can see past 10 - 12 layers of trees to the edge of the wood (not sure how to post the image again but you can clearly see a path direct to the edge). Does this mean a tank in the field at the end of the wood can see right down the row ? i,e so a unit would need to hide behind a tree in the wood to block the LOS ? (i.e a base this on Steves comment somewhere that if you look like you are in cover chances are you are , if not you anit in cover) Apply this logic would suggest LOS to the end of the wood. (hope that makes sense). Yes, a tank on the outside of the woods would have an LOS to the guy running. And if he fired and the round went along that "path" it would pass through. When a round is stopped by a tree you can see which tree it hits. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BFCElvis Posted January 5, 2011 Author Share Posted January 5, 2011 Very nice! The first time I saw this in CMBN was when I was firing a bazooka through thin woods. The first made it through the trees but sailed over the Mark IV. The second round hit the top of a tree. I had seen stuff like that in CMSF but there was something about a baz shot doing it that gave me a thrill. Third shot hit and killed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
futon river crossing Posted January 5, 2011 Share Posted January 5, 2011 I tried to fire an ATGM through some trees in CMSF - only to have it hit a tree above some of my troops, killing them - a real WTF moment Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
