Okay,..I know this is the Public Channel and "ears" are listening,...so I'll keep it in that vain....

The Naval Bombardment was amazing!!! I want MORE!! hahaha
And the fact that there are more troops in a unit is devastating upon 1st contact.
Mortars too,....they devastate.
Very Happy, Very Happy. I say that now,...but I know Granfali is planning,.....

[gortwillsaveus]

and,..lost my first tank,...a Stielgranite fired at my infantry,...and I thought that was it's only shot. It took a second shot on an advancing FireFly. My bad!

[gortwillsaveus]

BTW: What's the keystroke to grab a screen shot? Not that I'll post it until the game is over.

[k9mike]

Jon...I need you to send me the files for the game...I cant access the ones He has posted. I can not extract it...I dont have that software and I have used up the free trial period. Can someone just post the files so I can install them in the MP folder...Thanks
MIke
*Disregard...I got it to work....thanks

Gort, Screen capture on a mac is SHIFT+CMD+3. Will save a .png to your desktop... Enjoy!... Just took out a Stielgranate with a Sherman/Scout combo... These are big maps for only 20 defenders though... There's a lot of open space... I hear lots of Granfali's mechanised stuff but haven't had contact yet... A bit concerning!

@mike, did you manage to download granfali's campaign file? if you've got a mac, run "app store" application, search for "stuffit expander", download and install it. it's free... then when you dl granfali's .rar file, stuffit should automatically decompress it... leaving you with a folder called GJS.1... let us know if that's not working

Should have mentioned I'm on a PC.
I know how to do a normal screen capture,..what I'm looking for is the way to screen capture within BA.

I'll search the forums.

F2 should work in fullscreen - otherwise you can just use PrtScn and paste it into a paint app.

Thanks! I just opened the manual and found it.
Why is it so hard to get the customers to read the manuals???

[GottaLove88s]

Err... BA has a manual?

Jon, think got it installed right. Its working..lol. I put the whole GJS folder in MP and launched and was able to join my game. Did force selection, but am still awaiting the rest to iniate the game.

ALLIED COMMANDERS:

Petirouge has set up a private thread for us in Battle Academy: Tournaments & Leagues. You're all automatically included in that group. Link here -> viewforum.php?f=207

Keep shared stuff up here, but post our confidential AARs, screenshots, successes and warnings on our private thread. We can add new Allies as their units come on, but the Germans cannot read it.

I'll transfer some stuff from here to there, later today, when I have a bit of time...

[Granfali]

Good work GL88

[GottaLove88s]

Haha... Please promise me you can't read the Allied thread? We're talking about everything you guys would loooooooove to know... lol

[GottaLove88s]

@Granfali... Btw Mister, WHERE IN HECK ARE YOU??!! I remember asking you if it was possible for a taskforce to slip down the side in the 40x40 beach maps... but I feel I should have encountered much more of your forces by now... Are you holding them back for a mass brawl on the final flag...?

[Granfali]

Are you holding them back for a mass brawl on the final flag...?

Hehehe... sure, I'm waiting for the Tigers. Uncle Goebblels promised us a lot of them (more or lessssss.... )

[GottaLove88s]

UH OH!! Tigers? I'm dead... Btw you have no idea how much I'd like to have a Medic or Rally bonus right now? Are you planning to give those in later games? Or does the scenario naturally whittle down our forces so we have to reinforce later...?

[Granfali]

Only high morale BGs have those privileges... (medic, rally and sgt drill) and I remember now that I forgot to put them for airborne BGs (sorry) . Fortunately for them it seems they are not necessary.

[GottaLove88s]

Do the Allies have any high morale BGs? Or just the German SS divisions? If only the German regulars have them, and they have all three of medic, rally and drill promotion, those battles are only going to go one way... especially with infallible Tigers...
