How do I contact you? Hi mate, mail me, i've only had CMBS a week myself haha. RE: Beginner wants opponents - PoorOldSpike - 02-10-2015 Animalshadow takes out a second of my T-90's, but with WHAT? All I know is it hits the top armour and I never spotted the firer, was he an infantryman or a vehicle? I know Hellfires can hit top armour, but it looks too big to be one of them, maybe it's a TOW or something? Suddenly I'm (gulp) afraid.. (EDIT- Animalshadow just told me it's a Javelin) ![]() RE: Beginner wants opponents - PoorOldSpike - 02-10-2015 NOW WHAT?? Grober sends this "welcome to the Russian front" message into the centre of my NATO tank group, I haven't a clue what it is (bomb? missile?) although I've heard a jet engine from time to time.. (EDIT- he told me after the game it was a 515kg bomb from an Su-25) ![]() ..and it makes a big bang... ![]() ..one of my Abrams almost toppled into the crater.. ![]() ..but I manage to reverse him out next turn.. ![]() RE: Beginner wants opponents - A Canadian Cat - 02-10-2015 OMG your M1 was still mobile after that! What kind of shape is it in. I have no idea what made that huge crater, wow. The first image - that I know - its a Javelin. You can tell because of its steep angle and the fact that your tank is no more :) Some of the TOWs attack high but not as high as a Javelin and Helo's missiles can come in a bit high but again not that high (Helos are considered to be at a low altitude and at stand off range for missile launching which means their attack angle is not ground level but not from above either.

I have no idea what made that huge crater, wow... Amazingly the tank never suffered a scratch! But the Humvee Mk19 on the right of the first 3 pics was destroyed and the 2-man crew killed (sniffle) RE: Beginner wants opponents - jomni - 02-10-2015 I agree with the conditions. I'll set up a game and send to you. I'll take NATO for now. RE: Beginner wants opponents - PoorOldSpike - 02-10-2015 APS (Active Protection System) in action My RPG man pops one off against Animalshadow's Abrams in the hedge.. ![]() The tank's view, the RPG man is yellow-circled and the incoming missile is red-circled.. ![]() A closeup of the missile.. ![]() The APS radar detects the missile and destroys it with a shotgun-type blast, but I think the missile would have missed anyway.. ![]() RE: Beginner wants opponents - PoorOldSpike - 02-11-2015 My Abrams tucks itself behind this barn but Grober's infantry were in there and shower it with grenades, don't you just hate it when that happens?.. ![]() The bailed crew pours fire into the barn.. ![]() And one of the culprits is cut down. "Sorry muchacho, nothing personal".. ![]() RE: Beginner wants opponents - animalshadow - 02-11-2015 Hey PoorOldSpike, Here's my AAR: https://www.theblitz.club/message_boards/showthread.php?tid=67636 Thanks for the game! :) RE: Beginner wants opponents - A Canadian Cat - 02-11-2015 Nice job with AARs and all guys. I thought the ladder was open. I'll have a look and then ask for help if I cannot get it to work... OK I see it too. Web master notified. |
