It's just silly though. There's no reason whatsoever, and it's not like there's planes or anything, no need for the 90 degrees of vertical traverse.
And no, Men of War is not realistic really. It has a brutal damage system, and good enough tank combat (best we'll get from any good RTS for a while), but that's about it.

Of course you can't label it as unrealistic, but it's no simulator. Something like "it's a tank chassis it costs more money" doesn't belong.
Also, why do American soldiers in-game still say, "For the motherland!" Also, what does, "Shoot his SA4," mean?

It's designed to be historically accurate, though. Besides, germany still has the advantage of having a SHITLOAD of anti-tank infantry classes, so more expensive tanks balance it out a bit.
Not to mention the flakpanzer can actually fire for longer amounts of time than the 222, which gives a better suppression bonus.

Because this game is made by Russians and Russians think that Americans are ultra-patriots who speak nonsense about everything.
Whoa, when you have good teammates you tend to start an unstoppable winning streak.
Playing as japanese is fun too, their infantry is completely OP. Their MG's shoot harder, their snipers shoot faster and their elite infantry has AT weapons out the ass
And their cheapest tank, the Ha-Go, is amazing. The thing has APCR so when you use it right you can make some serious rage. That, and it's cannon fires extremely fast.
Their bazooka is the most powerful in the game, and that end-game 300mm rockets is a game changer for when it hits something, that something is already dead.
Japs ftw

Too bad that the Japanese AT grenades suck horse cock.

Hand bombs.
Engine.
Laugh.
I once flanked a sturmtiger with a squad of commandoes and they threw like 20-30 fucking AT-Grenades on it's roof on one single spot, and nothing happened to it even if it had this huge fucking hole sprite on it's roof.

Flakpanzer then, no such thing as a flakpanther.[/QUOTE]
There is such a thing:

although it's not in the game obviously.
I like the campaign in Red Tide so far. In the first mission I sneaked around the side of the trenches, took out a mortar crew, used that to fuck shit up all over the map, then found an AT rifle somewhere and fucked up some tanks with and some AT grenades. On the second mission, I managed to steal an enemy tank, took out like half of the village with it, destroyed the 2 tanks that attacked me, then some AT rifleman destroyed my tank, then I managed to steal yet another tank that was just sitting there unused and wiped out the rest of the village with that. And now I have to defend against a goddamn armor division. Fuck.
Simkas, protip : when you get to that frontline assault snow map, there is a trench to the right you can direct control your tanks into. You can take them all the way around the back and steal their howitzers like that.

Because if you try to attack with your T-26's directly into the frontline, they will be blown up by mines/artillery/at guns every single time. Don't try.

What... :psyduck:
What's the point of mounting an open top AA gun on a Panther chassis?
Waste of materials much?

2x37mm in a fully enclosed turret, only a wood prototype was made though

The game has Wirbelwind, doesn't it?
no wait it's a flakpanzer, nevermind
I still love it though
Yeah, the Wirbelwind demolishes inf and light vehicles. 4x20mm is awesome

This would be incredible to have in the game. :v:
It's like the M19 except it wouldn't die instantly.
Can't seem to change my name through Gamespy....... Anyone know how?

There was a variant of that with a single 55mm autocannon.

I don't think you can.
Is assault squad worth it?
People here are divided so decide for yourself:
New stuff
- Skirmish (15 missions, largely the same gameplay)
- 10+ new maps, more being patched in
- Upgraded graphics (still being improved in patches)
- Reworked infantry combat (more realistic)
- Reworked Tank combat
- Reworked artillery combat
- New units
- Re-balancing of teams (questionable)
- More frequent and substantial patches to come (the first of which, changes lots, is coming out in a week or so.)
- New special faction powers such as hero units and abilities.
Stuff that has been removed:
- Victory flag
- Cargo gamemode
Lack of campaign may be rectified by mods.
If you enjoyed the multiplayer of the original, then I think you should definitely go for it.
[QUOTE=Uberman77883;28441980]Is assault squad worth it?[/QUOTE]
I'd say it's a solid game, it just needs a some more players. Go for it.
why is there still no way to split stacks in the inventory

Current progress in the MoWAS Kick Off tourny, I'm in team [RCP], our first win was via default but we dominated the quarter finals, we'll be playing in the semi's at some point tonight.

Awesome, what are the team sizes?
[QUOTE=Edthefirst;28461298]Awesome, what are the team sizes?[/QUOTE]
2vs2
how come when I place trenches in the editor for assault squad I can't select them or move them?
