RE: Vehicle Crew bug

I had the same issue. It appears as a Type 4 tank pre-battle, but in the battle it shows up as a completely disabled tank labeled "vehicle crew". Small bug. Now I know to look more closely at "veteran" armor and eliminate this flavor...

RE: To Kill a Panther

Panther... with a bazooka...?! I once through a bazooka team into my mix to see if it could even damage a panther - and the targeting circle from the bazooka team was always black (no possibility of damage)... Seems to be of no use vs. Panther...

RE: To Kill a Panther

<t> Yup... I have had some success killing panthers using simultaneous attacks from multiple angles from multiple M10s, but there are also high losses in the process. I too use lesser armor as "bait". It is tough - but possible.<br/>

The other night, playing operation "Into the Flank" though ...

RE: Should I buy?

<t> Overall, I would recommend this game. There were some nasty crashing errors at first, but these are fixed. I have played half of these CC games, and this one is very good. It is challenging and fun. Game attacking AI could be more aggressive. I have not seen any ridiculous AI issues. My main ...

No Off Map Air Support, artillery etc. - Ever?

<t> I have played a couple Operations through as Americans (Central Slugfest and See Valley). I can see on the strategic map that there are air strikes and barrages available to me (with numbers displayed). I can't see how to assign / select them prior to a battle. When I get into the battle, these ...

RE: Strategic and Tactical AI - How good is it?

<t> I have played ~ 30 battles (German and American), and I have seen several instances where tanks will not follows the straight line movement commanded by way point(s). They seem to veer off at least slightly, about 30% of the time, usually for no apparent reason (not under attack). This Does not ...

RE: If you want to play multiplayer - dont buy it

That Game Ranger UI looks fantastic, and looks similar to about every other online game lobby I have ever used. I Don't understand why the TitF lobby interface was designed with such limited information. [&:] Surely that data is available - it just needs to be displayed...?

Pip - I emailed my system specs and a sample saved file within minutes of your first request. I replied to your email and attached them there. I assume you have access to the email account in which you sent me your request - correct?

RE: Internal Error and many other issues

I was about the forth battle into an "operation", playing straight through (no longer trying to save games), when this error occurred. I was able to play the game for over an hour before this ...

So it is impossible to play anything other than a single battle. This means all ...
