#1: The screenshot thread WWII Author: vobbnobb PostPosted: Wed Jun 01, 2016 10:32 am

I am making this thread because I would like to see your unique in game shots, followed by some kind of story of the event explaining it. It could be anything from a single battle or a campaign with the stock games or even a mod.  It could be an interesting event, medals, kills, unique skills, strategy map, squad events, anything worthy of a shot to show!

I will start things off with this capture and medal earned by this soldier repelling multiple waves on enemies during the Tunisia campaign. I don't know the medal but if you know please tell me what it is.

Vobbnobb,

I think that medal is the King George V Issue for the British. Second highest for them, highest is the Victoria Cross.

Don't have a lot of screen caps myself, here's one from my long Winter War - campaign for CC 5 as the Finns. I did my best to contain the Soviet tide and not falling behind the Mannerheim line. Did take a lot of casualties. Never found a way to destroy the immobilised Soviet tanks, they always took out my infantry that tried to creep up on them.

After taking that pic the Soviets actually did break through my defences and I did end up losing much of the ground south of the Mannerheim line.

I thought it may be Canadian but unsure. Doesn't the game account for Canadian medals or were they the same as British? Did your supply routes get cut?  Never heard of that mod will have to try.  thanks

hello:

A tactic that I use in CC3/COI Stalingrad Maps (maps 2 and 3), mortar fire against the flammable stockpiles located near VL or key places. It's like fishing, sometimes only kill a few soldiers, sometimes only a huge explosion and some times you catch some interesting...

This is a old capture (May 2002) using ImprPant key + paste in Paint after the game and cropped to reduce space.

Bye

caught this guy taking out 3 psws with an AT rifle grenade from a fallen soldier that was not his, he originally had a BAR he kept and used both. Would have got a nice medal if he didn't coward out at the end. I have never seen that happen before ever

Playing as Soviets - Germans like Mortars. Soviets like Anti-Tank guns. German AFVs don't like Soviet Anti-Tank guns. http://i.imgur.com/FG654xT.jpg

Playing as Germans - I'm rather protective of my troops, they return the kindness with ever surpassing performance. http://i.imgur.com/ON6InSk.jpg

One from Gateway to Caen. http://i.imgur.com/KZdcrTJ.jpg

This tank went through the entirety of the Grand Campaign and slaughtered Panthers. It had quite a few close calls but somehow came out safe in the end.

For me it's Snipers in CC3 that I like to keep alive. There's something particularly satisfying about reaching Berlin with a Major with a fruit salad on his chest.

I kind of cheated on cc4 to get this, I was playing in operation mode (short campaign) and if I lost soldiers I would restart the game until none got hit.

Err, it's a Distinguished Service Cross (DSC) the second highest award in the US Army.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Distinguished_Service_Cross_(United_States)
 
The medal images sometimes are too small to identificate the specific award. For example I needed to check in the web the ribbons designs to diferenciate Silver Star from Bronze Star.    

I haven't images of the Medal of Honor in the game.

Woops. Guess he didn't then. It's almost impossible to get one during single game.
