Re: What CMO scenarios lack


It's commendable not wanting to overload lower spec systems, but by that logic we would all still be playing Pacman and Space Invaders. Games and systems involve. Its the way the industry works.

I do play another Matrix Game called Distant Worlds and its impressive what the designers were able ...

Cannot plot course for Land-attack missiles

Pretty straight forward. Whenever I'm trying to fire a Tomahawk-type weapon (Tomahawk, Hyunmoo 3b, etc) at a land target, the "plot course" box is greyed out.

Save attached.

Re: A2A Tanker Support advice


I have a sordid and poorly executed history with AAR. But this comment from above "Receivers start looking for tankers when down to X percent of mission fuel", plus tanker positioning and REALLY knowing the detail of the flight plan of the aircraft is immensely important. In the current CMO ...

[NO REPRO] Is the AIM-120D AMRAAM really that bad?

My F-16M Blk 52 fires an AIM-120D AMRAAM P3.I4 at a range of about 11nm at a non-maneuvering guided missile traveling at 530 kts roughly perpendicular to the F-16. The AMRAAM has traveled approximately 10nm and is already down to 625kts of speed.

The AIM 120D shows a range of 86nm. Why is it losing ...

Reference books for modern weapons

Can anyone suggest some reference books that cover modern weapons? I'd like to read more about, say, the Taurus missile, AMRAAM, Meteor, etc.

I understand that Jane's does this but I'm looking for something a bit more affordable than $1500 per book.

Re: Missiles with stupidly high BVR capability post patch

I can't speak to the Arrow, but the AIM-120A AMRAAM is completely broken. If you fire it at greater than 12nm away, enemy fighters just turn around and burner away. If you fire it at closer ranges, the missile climbs to 60,000 feet (even if the enemy is 3nm away and at 36k altitude) and then ...

Re: Aircraft range

Couple tips on aircraft ranges:

1. the ranges listed on the load out screen are best used as relative estimates, not absolute. Particularly loadouts based on ingress and egress altitudes - a "lo-lo-lo" altitude loadout range can be exceeded drastically by forcing the aircraft to manually fly at ...

Re: Your favourite scenarios?

Mediterranean Fury 1.

-playing with non-US units
-"surprise" scenarios that require coordination and has a lot of flexibility on how/where to attack
-Lua options for ...

Re: CMO Cluster ammunition in ASuW role

Perhaps the clusters triggered some exposed ammunition on the flight deck, leading to further explosions that threatened the watertight integrity of the ship? Doesn't seem terribly out of the realm of possibility to me at all.

With that said, I usually don't see much flooding when I use cluster ...

Re: Does the number of sides affect game speed?

I have no hard proof other than a lot of hours in the game, but here's what I've noticed affecting game speed:

1) # of units in the game
2) # artillery/rocket rounds in the air
3) various game settings - weapon range rings, etc

I don't know if GPUs are nearly as important as CPUs in this game.

Re: Mediterranean Fury 1 - Road to Byzantium 13/2/94

Also, a few notes based on some of your comments:

-Fencers can use the Bison tankers, I believe.

-Since the big missile patch I also struggle with Alamos vs AIM-9Ls. The AIM-9Ls are often fired at 10nm and If the Alamos are fired at any distance longer than that, the NATO Falcons often have time ...

Re: Mediterranean Fury 1 - Road to Byzantium 13/2/94

Excellent AAR, Fitzpatv. Med Fury 1 is probably my favorite CMO scenario of all time. Massive scale, playable as Warsaw Pact, tons of second- and third-line units, every type of land/sea/air unit, and decisions to be made (with some consequences).

I've played this scenario through twice - once ...

Land units won't engage other Land units

I believe so. The Northern Fury website still shows a lot of "scenario not yet written" labels for all the theaters. Below is the list of scenarios for the Pacific Fury subset, for example. It shows 15 Pacific Fury scenarios ...
