Combat Mission Fortress Italy: Multiplayer quick battle 29/12/16

[@Philhamm]

As always, good stuff. Love the cinematic quality you bring to the battles as well as the commentary.

[@joseywales3848]

Thanks, glad you and others are liking these. They take a while to put together but the end result is quite rewarding for me.

[@usuallyhapless9481]

17:35 You know things are getting good when the troops are throwing satchel charges at each other! Nice camera work man, think you got the 'hard' end of the map to start from though. Having to cross a river seems a bit unfair!

[@usuallyhapless9481]

Ha, that's a good one. Always a few moments of insanity in CM!

[@jamesa702]

Your narratives are very entertaining and info rich. Thanks for the great effort.

[@joseywales3848]

Thanks James, glad you're enjoying them.

[@gunsalot]

Going though the multiplayer playlist. Loving the hardcore-ness of cinemography.

[@wartsnall7332]

Phew, that was bloody.

[@joseywales3848]

Yeah, was pretty painful to watch my pixeltruppen get massacred like that but I kept thinking, oh well at least it will make for some good footage!

[@RedBravo65]

Beautifully done as usual.

[@joseywales3848]

Many thanks. Are we likely to see another CM vid from you in the future?

[@RedBravo65]

Josey Wales I'm afraid not for a very long time. Been burnt out on CM for a while now. Going to focus on other, more operational games like John Tiller's Panzer Battles, Gary Grigby's War in the West/East series. I don't really think those are video friendly under most circumstances. Other stuff I'm playing that you will probably see is more DCS helicopter flying, ARMA 3 using High Command options and probably IL-2 BOS flying.

[@joseywales3848]

Cool beans. As an ex member of an ArmA community I look forward to seeing some high command stuff.

[@ashiltokhai6673]

Cant wait for the next one. Feed us more!

[@joseywales3848]

Love the enthusiasm, more will be coming!

[@miniaturesandstuff5209]

the moment you said the words "...have to move out across open ground" I immediately shook my head and expected the worst :/

[@joseywales3848]

Yep a grim CM moment indeed!

[@tonydepp6172]

Epic! Make more!

[@JuergenGDB]

Fire and maneuver.... Fire and maneuver!.

[@joseywales3848]

Yep absolutely. Fire without manoeuvre is indecisive, manoeuvre without fire is suicidal (as demonstrated here)

[@JuergenGDB]

Keep watching your videos over and over they are so well done.

[@joseywales3848]

Thanks a lot Juergen I'm glad you're enjoying them.

[@erich.marks0]

7:52 this strategy is called "1914"

[@joseywales3848]

Watch the action from my opponents perspective; kzbin.info/www/bejne/bZyXgnaPpLWHb68

[@JuergenGDB]

It looks like you both had the same plan. Too bad about the Smoke screen. Great video yet again...

[@joseywales3848]

Did you watch Denis's video? Yeah we had similar ideas, I was trying really hard to press his right flank.

[@JuergenGDB]

Yeah, its happened to me a couple times... lol same thinking of sorts. I guess good minds will think alike. Cheers! By the way what level of experience were your troops? I think the US is cheaper unless your using Paratroopers.

[@joseywales3848]

I think they were regular but can't remember for sure.

[@tehbluzekluze]

Very cool

[@joseywales3848]

Thanks man. New one out soon!

[@realQuagsire]

Do people still play CM: Afghanistan multiplayer (demo version)

[@joseywales3848]

Yes there are still people playing. Have a look here; www.thefewgoodmen.com/thefgmforum/forums/combat-mission-x-2-afghanistan-modern.169/

[@Dusty7460]

Josey Sir have you upgraded to Engine 4 or are you still on 3 ? What do you think of it is it worth it?

[@joseywales3848]

This game was played on engine 3, in fact I was away over Xmas and didn't realise engine 4 had been released until reading your post. Looking forward to see what it has to offer, thanks for the heads up.

[@Dusty7460]

You welcome sir and thank you for your videos.
