Amen, brother!

Here's one: I hate it when I set all my tanks to area fire enemy troops and then the tanks sit doing nothing for the whole next minute because my own troops were a little too close to the fire area.

Good lord. That just happened to me last night. And my opponent just reinforced the church I wanted to collapse.

With new joists and cement? Big Grin

I'll have to look up that command in the manual...turning a light building into a heavy one...you probably need a lot of trucks.

while defending: setting up an armor trap on one flank only to have your opponent send all his tanks to your other side of the map

or

having a tiger, panther, pershing, sherman jumbo, etc of mine killed by a tank with 75 mm cannon from across the map on the first or second turn.

"Front turret penetration at weak point-- knocked out."

Invariably happens to one of my German Uber-tanks, and usually from a gun no larger than 75mm L38. Often from a 37mm, which instantly jacks my blood pressure up about 100 points.

It seems to me that it happened a lot more often in CMBO than it does in CMBB or CMAK, but still infuriating when it happens.

i hate it when my veteran tanks justsit and watch enemy tank firing...
i also hate my veteran and crack tanks fire 12 shells on another tank and keep missing...distance is about 200 meters :)

'Gun hit' DOH!

I hate it when you can't embark an arty spotter because of a glitch in the game, so he has to walk a million miles before he can call down the shells, and by the time he gets a decent LOS, the enemy has gone elsewhere. So he walks some more...
