I played the Block Buster scenario...deadly urban combat in Berlin against Volksturm. I loved seeing how the last tier German troops had a real Hodge-podge of weaponry. I saw .303 Enfields in there, and all kinds of assorted small arms. Very cool.

My laptop is not happy with the Berlin map.

Need the big iron.

Does anyone else have their installer get stuck at 100% because it keeps recursively adding /data/data/data/data folders endlessly?  I don't know what the hell the installer thinks it's doing, but if I stop it, it rolls back the entire installation.   :pullhair:  This isn't the first time this has happened to me with CM games, either.  I suspect it's because I placed the module installation files directly in the Red Thunder folder and tried to install it from there.

Can you just download the entire game file? It has everything and you just activate with your licenses for red thunder, fire and rubble and game engine 4.

It makes no difference what men think of war, said the judge.  War endures.  As well ask men what they think of stone.  War was always here.  Before man was, war waited for him.  The ultimate trade awaiting its ultimate practitioner.  That is the way it was and will be.  That way and not some other way.

If they made nothing but WWII games, I'd be perfectly content.  Hypothetical matchups from alternate history 1980s, asymmetrical US-bashes-some-3rd world guerillas, or minor wars between Upper Bumblescum and outer Kaboomistan hold no appeal for me.

I guess it's sort of nice that the word "tactical" seems to refer to some kind of seriousness during your moments of mental clarity.

I installed both Mac and Windows by now and have not seen that.

Moving the install files to a different folder worked. O0

Looks like the Sturmtiger is not in after all.

It appears that the release notes mixed up the Sturmtiger and the Jagdtiger (which is in).

Damn...burned again by the stupid activation BS... :tickedoff:

Activation not working...off I go for help desk support.  Why is this my problem?

Sorry all, just venting....

I seem to have problems with armored vehicles getting stuck on bridges. There is no indication that they are damaged, bogged down, etc. Just stuck. They won't move across...

Don't apologize. You spent good money and have every right to be pissed.

I seem to recall that being a problem years ago too...

I had forgot about this and the help desk reminded me to do what you did. Don't put the installer in the CM folder - for all the sense that makes.

Bridge bugs seen to be common. I just did a savegame showing one. JH, does that look like your case?
