Not sure if you read Wargamer, but TBF is supposed to be released in 2018.

Well there you go. In ambush mode, will it fire at all?

Any progress?

It's literally a useless waste of time. Just gets lit up by Crocodiles who can spot it for miles.

Remember the old vet mods for CC4 and 5 fondly. Not tactically sound all the time, but those SS mofos running towards the objectives at the start of the map made me crap my drawers the first time I witnessed it.

Any vet mod for GtC? Just grabbed the GOG versions this week; ready to tear into it this weekend.

Ancient Art of War, circa 1984. Had it on a Compaq IBM XT clone.

I've been playing Strategic Command 2 and the various expansions and have been quite happy. It's simple to learn, hard to master, but on a strategic/global scale, although the combat is fairly uncomplicated like Panzer General. The HPS simulations series are quite well done though. You may also find the Steel Panthers series fun. There's a freeware version now available; it's squad/tactical turn-based.

Same here. I find the 3d games weight you down with camera micro-management -- you can't beat a solid top-down 2D game, or at least if it's 3d, have sensible default camera views/modes. Seeing how many dedicated CC players there are, it blows my mind that somebody hasn't picked up where it left off and ran with it.

Is the "next CC from Schreken & Co" CC6?

What's the deal? Is there a new tactical squad-based RTS WW2 game out there that's as good as CC? Anything in the works?

Ok, I'm sold... Very Happy

Now what about the Panther As? Over a course of 4 turns on one particular map, I lost 9 Achilles with the 76mm QF* against two Panthers in question. Repeated flank shots, several front shots, and one rear/side shot could at best immobilize two already immobile (out of fuel) Panther As. One by one, the two surrounded Panthers would slowly rotate and knock out my Achilles like clockwork.
Of course, only the mighty 6 pounder was able to eventually dispatch the armor, along with a lucky PIAT shot; The 76mm seemed to have no stopping power at all.
* what's up with Rate of Fire anyways? It seems nowhere near avg. shots per minute, regardless of type of gun. This isn't just GJS either -- seems all mods and originals suffer from slow RoF. Is this a game balance/playability decision?

Two were frontal, one was the side. I'm not questioning tactics -- we all know the AI is poor -- but the AT capabilities of the six pounder.

How would that make a difference? There's obviously something wrong with the armor table.

6 pounders are unreal... I destroyed 3 Tigers from 100-150 yards with one gun.

I had no idea that Hitler's germany had invented Adamantium 20 years before Wolverine! It's no wonder they coated their Panther As in it! Unstoppable! Rolling Eyes

all my front line Hussar units do not have Matildas except for my day 2 reinforcements -- one unit has Matildas.

I have to ask: what's with the italian AT guns? That 47/32 canonne is virtually impossible to destroy -- I had 2 teams of 3in mortars and a team of FO observers raining shell after shell and could only kill 2 of 4 crew members. This is a common occurance on any map so the guns are just working my allied recce units over.
I basically hide all my Daimlers and Humbers or send them on suicide runs to grab far-off VPs.
