Just got Men of War. Definitely a steep learning curve. Hopefully I can start winning some MP battles soon though.
If you want to play MP you probably should have gotten Assault Squad. Also updated the tourny bracket, [EPIC] beat Transalpine 100-56 so we'll be fighting them in the next round.

[editline]6th March 2011[/editline] cash prize of $175 btw[/QUOTE] I hope you fraps the finals.
Got AS. Somehow the icon got mixed up with the Call Of Cthulhu icon.
We lost the semi-finals to [EPIC], 2 - 0 in best of 3, we came really close in the 2nd map but got trounced in the first. They got to choose the maps which really fucked us over in by eliminating all our good maps. They're the best MoW players I've ever come across really, and I'm pretty damn good. They're better than Instinct :v: Ah well, was a good few games, bit ragey for my teammate towards the end but I enjoyed most of it. No money for me :saddowns: [editline]7th March 2011[/editline] [QUOTE=Giacomand;28464714]I hope you fraps the finals.[/QUOTE] I would have, but yeah :C Also the EPIC guys are cunts, they seemed nice at first but they were just being dicks to us throughout the whole game.
[QUOTE=skparagon;28461667]how come when I place trenches in the editor for assault squad I can't select them or move them?[/QUOTE] Did you place them in Map Edit (F2) or Mission Edit (F3)?
[QUOTE=Tark;28465411]Did you place them in Map Edit (F2) or Mission Edit (F3)?[/QUOTE] They can't be selected with either one. Does the map need to be empty before I place them? Because I have sandbags and other stuff already down.
i want victory flag back
[QUOTE=W0w00t;28467219]i want victory flag back[/QUOTE] I don't. I hated it.
you don't but alot of people do
Combat was incredibly useless and really destroyed what made the game good. The real challenge is Assault Zones, really. Oh and for people who think skirmish is awesome and they're just like campaign missions; it's not. It's a set of points across a map, where the amount of forces getting sent to defend increases as you capture more. This often leads to hundreds of infantrymen and dozens of tanks running at you at all times. You often have much, much fewer forces. It's all down to taste if you like it or not, but in my own opinion it's just a feeble attempt at adding filler content to the game. The multiplayer is great. That's why I played men of war (well, some missions there were great ), and that's why I play AS. I think i have a win/loss ratio of about 30 or something. If someone is up for a 3v3 or 2v2 against me and a friend, go ahead and message me. I'd like to get a youtube vid of our "special" strategy.
They need skirmish that is more like Total War skirmishes. Select the map, time of day, weather, forces, units per force, etc. Shit would be so cash it would pay for itself.
Does DCG work with Assault Squad?
Not atm
[QUOTE=angelangel;28434018]Also, what does, "Shoot his SA4," mean?[/QUOTE] Is it not "Shoot as I say 4"?
[QUOTE=MutantBadger;28477471]They need skirmish that is more like Total War skirmishes. Select the map, time of day, weather, forces, units per force, etc. Shit would be so cash it would pay for itself.[/QUOTE] Awesome thought, Total War's campaign for Men of War.

[QUOTE=the_killer24;28483373]Sometimes, I can hear Germans saying what is very obviously spanish like COMO ESTA while running up a hill or something[/QUOTE] they're trained to do that

[QUOTE=skparagon;28465438]They can't be selected with either one. Does the map need to be empty before I place them?

[QUOTE=David29;28478841]Does DCG work with Assault Squad?[/QUOTE] If and when it does, I will purchase those shits. I love the hell out of DCG, even with its faults.

[QUOTE='[DMS]Instinct;28525521'][url]http://www.digitalmindsoft.eu/forums/viewforum.php?f=153[/url][/QUOTE] You wonderful, lovely bastard.
So, is it possible to resupply units in DCG in-between missions? My captured heavy arty keeps running out of rounds, and only one of them can even find compatible ammunition from enemies.

You can refuel tanks inside the DCG unit selector for a points fee. I'll see what's what in DCG 2.5 when I can.

It doesn't automatically refill although I suspect it's US stuff, probably because it's not on my buy list
