Yep, it has gone mad, a normal day at Wombat Thunder! Thanks for watching.

Exactly! It is bit cool to see some AI video from a static model, and in my mind there's only a few frames that work well, and done without having to build a full diorama from scratch. Thanks for watching.

Thanks for watching! I don't know that one, is it Combat Mission?

Thanks for enjoying the vid. The main help for the Germans here was the damn mist, if not for that the Germans would've been hammered from all sides by long range fire. Other than that, keeping the Tigers together and in some kind of tactcal formation was important so I could get several barrels on the enemy quickly and destroy them. My mistakes though cost me a Tiger and some Commanders, so its not all tea and biscuits! Thanks for watching!

To a degree, depending on range to target, gaps and gates, and how close the viewer is to the hedge. Thanks for watching.

Every game is a new playing, sometimes things go well, other times pretty badly!

Great to know its helpful, let me know if you have tips of your own. Thanks for watching.

Good question. This was one of my own creations to field test just how a T tank and a bradley might match up. Had to invent a way to bodgy up the cellars though. Thanks for watching!

I figure seeing how CM BS simulates (or tries to) what we can see in real life really shows how brilliantly those Ukr bradleys in the clip performed. Incidentally, even if I reduced the russian crew quality to as low as I can, the result is usually similar.

Put it down to the stress of battle, low light and you'll get what Combat Mission portays so well: as realistic a simulation as any. Thanks for watching!

CM doesn't but I've found a way to hack a decent solution. Thanks for watching!

The map is still under development, its not bad in the zone the fight was over but other areas are definitely unfinished. Thanks for watching!

I can still see a need for more theory and practice in application. Thanks for watching!

I got two six shooters in their 'roo skin holsters ready to go! Thanks for watching.

My secret is always to be lucky! But seriously in that game I was helped by weird AI pushing the Germans forward so I could eliminate the Tiger support so quickly: the Churchies have good armour which the ridge tactic feasible. The Tiger on the other hand was pure luck, but the Tiger firing after moving was a low odd shot of destroying a churchie, but it faced 2 shots in defensive fire phase and then another 2 in the fire/move phase, and eventually the Tiger would run out of luck sometime. SF will be great multiplayer when it comes, along with better AI for routing etc. Can't wait for the Marines and Japanese either! Thanks for watching.

Dying from ricochets must be the weirdest thing I've heard of in CM! Thanks for watching!

Next weeks vid might just be a little more controversial! Thanks for watching!

If I had to choose a single vehicle in CMCW, BMP-2 would be my fav! Thanks for watching!

@@wombatthunder oh yeah . I cannot believe that the American industrial base could not come up with a infantry fighting vehicle until the M2 Bradley in the early to mid 80s.. I bet it's because fighting in the hot sweaty Vietnam jungle prevented American troops from asking for a enclosed infantry fighting vehicle.

Bro after sf2 bmp got stupid strong in black sea they will really mess your day up!

The kit was about AU$25 or so.

Nice!

Well, I'm sorry to say that the YT I scraped it from didn't give an attribution! So, IDK! Thanks for watching!

I beleive its from the 2008 Russian movie called Admiral but I could be wrong.

@@Madvillain2010 yo thank you, I'll look it up.

That's very useful to know, If only I'd known it sooner! 🤣😂🤣

That join isn't well supported, so, a little crooked! And wombat hands are clumsy ...

@@wombatthunder I hear ya, brother! I'm a wargamer/modeler for over 40 years now and that kit lead to the same outcome as your. A bit of brass rod fixed it up nicely on my end.

I've been doing this modelling thing for only a few months so learning step by step as I go (back in the teeange years I wasnt very good at it). I see you also use clips from old movies as well, a great way to bring the subject to life@@weirdwwii8775 subcribed!

@@wombatthunder Oh yeah, I'm a movie nut! I do a vid every Monday called "Shit on my Table" about what I'm working on or showcasing some of my gaming stuff but I use obscure music in my intros and outros and always wait til the end to see a last bit.

Working on a platoon of 1/48 Hobby Boss t-34/85s and they are overly detailed like crazy!

Interesting! I really only post on the CM Discord channels!

on a post about wanting battle replays lmao@@wombatthunder

Thanks. The next scen in the campaign is a little more intense, so I'm tossing up whether to do it real time or turn by turn ...

CMBS is all about massive firepower, since everything is spotted so much easier than the WW2 titles (where I keep getting shot from unknown ppl in trees!)

True, and some unique footage since they had so many extras ...

what are you talking about?

The Leo 1 was used in the Australian Army for a long time (I nearly called it the Wombat Army 🤣) but then it got replaced by the Abrams. I have the Leo 2 (A4 and A6) on my wish to build list).

@@wombatthunder , Wombat Army. best Army

We've never been defeated! Hoo-Aah! 🤣😁

I was there for Friday and Saturday - took a ride in the T-72 and BMP - very cool. I got on the vid from the museum. So worth the visit!

@@wombatthunder I'll definitely be back next year. The event was great and the staff were amazing. Hopefully, I'll get to ride in the 38t next year. The starter motor had shit itself so as a replacement ride, I chose the Stug IV.

@@lysanderkrieg5474 Next year is a must for me too, definitely on Commanders Deck to get to ride on the Friday. Probably make it a three dayer, so i can see all the vehicles. Some buddies from down south have gone for the last 8 years!

Panzer iv ausf g it's not a tiger background

@@shanechapman3567 Huh? After the Panther is parked there's a Tiger 1 behind it!

The game is Combat Mission Cold War (available on Steam) and the scenario is 'Between the Farhbahns". Thanks for watching.

That's the kind of fun we have at Wombat Thunder!

He's got a keen eye for cool kits!

Defintiely the grenades are causing some casualties but not all. And you're right that the modelling may be different from the graphic representation of what's happening.

Good idea! I'll try to do a couple of shorts that could cover that.

It was completely totally AI, I just drove the Sherman up the hill looking for infantry with p'fausts waiting behind the hedge. My opponent's reaction in this PvP was "next!", as in "lets get onto the next scenario ...." thanks for watching.

The scenario is Barkmann's Corner, so it's a Panther VG (early). The Sherman seems to have spotted the large Panther in the woods while it was turning when it was looking straight at the Panzer. The AI did the shoot as I didn't even know it was there! Thanks for watching!
