Re: Combat Mission: Cold War - Update v.1.07.00

I just bought the game. Immediately, I noticed some odd behavior when giving orders. The orders are being given to other units. Much like if you double click a HQ unit and it gives the HQ commands to his sub units. This really messes up the game as you have to go back and check every unit.

There are many problems with the game, that you don't mention at all. Read this review . . . lots of screenshots and descriptions of poor A.I., strange behavior, and downright bugs.<br/>

Thank you, gentlemen. This looks pretty darn good, and with scenario editor intact, my doubts have been assuaged. I also count 17 units in Zak's screenshot, which is just about perfect for the micro required. Combat Mission 2x is great, but ...

RE: Camera abit restrictive!

<t> I feel the game is only playable by adjusting the camera. I want to be down in the weeds. And have some terrain comprehension. The topo-info is a win.<br/>

Also, the list of units on the top left is not ideal. Maybe across the top of the screen horizontally, and move that victory slider ...

RE: German 75mmL43, L48 and L46 velocities

<t> That date would indicate a very early pzgr 39. In other words, it would be used by the initial batch of StuGs with the L43 barrel. It would be nice to find the Merkblatt that goes with it. I think the only one we have seen is the Oct 44 Merkblatt that calls out 2.5 Kg powder. I am thinking that ...

RE: German 75mmL43, L48 and L46 velocities

<t> I believe that is also in your post 23 in this thread? I think that there is a mistake in that the AP40 has the same powderweight as the AP39. It looks hand drawn by the way.<br/>

Most sources say that the powder weight on the Pak40 AP39 is 2.75 Kg. It's about the same as a 88mm Tiger I ...

RE: German 75mmL43, L48 and L46 velocities

That also looks like a Navy Report. I guess they copied.

I have seen shell casing marking that are in that lower range. The artificial silk 'sacks' that held the propellant, also had info including date of manufacture (month)

<r> I can't post links or pics it seems.<br/>
<br/>
But, it seems that 2.5 Kg (I have seen 2.51 Kg also), is a late war model. That info you posted is from Oct. 44. If anything, 2.43 (or 2.41Kg) is an earlier model. I can not see the Germans reducing the charge past Oct 44???? If anything, it ...
