Im almost sure it a win NT thing... I play the game on two computers one with win 95 at home the other winth win NT at work. It works fine on win95. It also works fine on NT until somebody uses a molotov than the game always goes out to windows.

<t>Talking of force selection... <br/>
When I started playing a long campaing I wanted to have a small core force (i think it was 900 points), because i like small battles. Now this is when I think I found a problem. Playing the germans in the east front when the enemy gets an assault or attack ...

<t>Ive found assaulting with units with sachel charges totaly ineffective against enemy tank. When I need inf units to kill a tank (east front heavy tanks) i get close to it than assault (almost always failed) than I dont rally but attack again with a suppressed unit... thats almost always a kill (3 ...

I would love SP WWI. I think it would be a great idea... even if it was going to be a modified set of OOB.

<r>Thanks Fredde! Now I've got something to fight over... By the way the button that turns them on/off is labeled go to objective area which is pretty inacurate <IMG src="http://www.matrixgames.com/ubb/rolleyes.gif"><s>[img]</s><URL url="http://www.matrixgames.com/ubb/rolleyes.gif">http://www ...

<r>Ok so now Im playing my 4th battle in a campaing with c2 on. I set up my troops. Its a meeting engagement so i started setting up flags for my troops. When I set up my first flag (for a recon unit... i forgot they dont need one) the objective areas dissapeared. I was thinking it was a temporary ...

<t>Dont you think that abandoned tanks that are "blown up" by inf. units should count for more points, just to pretend the tank is captured which is better than blasting it?<br/>
<br/>
I think that might be a good idea, but I'm not shure its easy to do or realistic... did soldiers really blow up ...

Thanx Paul. That makes it much easier than right clicking .

<t>Ive just started playing a campaign with C&C on, for the first time. Now I have one question... I have one mechanized recon section (3 spec ops + 3 apc). They seem to be treated like a recon unit (no objectives needed) but... the apc with advance orders dont show the areas they can go until they ...

Owl. You can fire both machineguns without using the main gun. Just turn the main gun off. Right click on the unit, than select the weapon you dont want to use. Now it wont fire. I use that option when there is a lot of infantry, against which the main gun is almost useless.

Wow... all the time I felt all alone thinking only I was "cheating", playing with out C&C. Now I see I'm not alone. I'm not sure, but IMO C&C requieres you to keep your forces too tight. Otherwise its ok. I use it sometimes.

<r>12.7 wasting a Panther is quite odd? If the tank had taken some damage or had a poor crew repeating such hits can make the crew bail, but should not be able to kill...<br/>
<br/>
Did it brewed up? not just abandoned by the crew. Even "turret ring" none penetrating kills need warhead 3 and pen at ...

<r>Talking about strange kills? well my panther (I think it was Panther G) was busted by a single shot from a 12,7mm ddsh russian heavy machine gun. It was at a range of 3-5 hexes cant remember exacly and it was a frontal shot. Now that was strange <IMG src="http://www.matrixgames.com/ubb/smile.gif ...

<r>Im not sure if somebody said it before, but Ive noticed that any immobilized tank (other vechicle probobly too but I didnt test it) will not show you which hexes are visible to its turret. If you rotate the turret it still highlights the area the tank is facing... not a serious bug but just ...

<r>I realize that AI is very hard to create and so its no that Im saying the game is not good, its great, but some things can be changed... like the crew shooting thing. Another thing ive noticed (only in three battles so I'll test that more) is that the enemy has to roll the whole squad onto the ...

<r>Now I wos doing some minor generated battles. I was fighting panthers vs IS 3. So my observations are as follows:<br/>
the AI thinks the crews are very dangerous because they are the #1 enemy. If an IS 3 has a panther, and a tank crew next to it it will attack the crew (strange but that saved me ...

<r>This bug has been reported a long time ago, and the only answer was: "read the manual the game is win95/98 friendly".<br/>
I have the same problem (also a Win NT user <IMG src="http://www.matrixgames.com/ubb/smile.gif"><s>[img]</s><URL url="http://www.matrixgames.com/ubb/smile.gif">http://www ...

Thanks guys... I didnt know.

<r>I've just started a US Army campaign in 12/42 in north africa. Now evrything would be great... the mission is a beach assault vs ....
