  1. Попробуй поискать/поспрашивать сканы вот этого http://www.ospreypublishing.com/store/M24-Chaffee-Light-Tank-1943%E2%80%9385_9781841765402/
  2. Is it the early or the late model? Early one got me shot down with a few rounds of 14.5mm
  3. I thought that means he's got an enemy on his tail. Or close to that.
  4. As soon as the Russian military got some money for modernization the went off the Russian tech Mi-2 helicopters were also produced in Poland.
  5. The most tension is caused by that old and bloody stupid whim to give Russian Crimea to Ukraine Republic as a present. In my group at the university there was a girl who, when asked where she was from, always said "I'm from Crimea... but I'm NOT Ukrainian!". You could almost see smoke popping out of her nostrils...
  6. Ukraine officials are getting out of their skin to show how nationalist they are. Funny, but even people who live there find that ridiculous. I heard that some of them are laughing their arses off when they hear new Ukrainian dubbing in cinemas. Not to mention official "reform" of the language to eliminate all traces of vocabulary similarities with Russian, wiping Russian events from history books (here we still start the history of Russia with Kiev and the regions are pretty closely tied together) and Russian language from the country.
  7. I thought, we didn't have XXX content on this forum On a serious note, I can't find a thing either. Even the word "fighter" on whole forum via both basic and advanced search.
  8. That F-19 made a great game for its time though.
  9. Yes, you can delete that folder and the game will create deafult set of files there on the next run. Mind, all settings will be reset to defaults as well.
  10. You don't get it - we can hijack other countries' airliners with that thing and get the falling figures of our airlines back up. We can borrow the plane and hold the passengers in the Duty Free zone where everything's more expesive. becuase it's cheaper. For a couple of days. Then we'll spray some An-2 fragments over a hillside, put there all the passengers and the crew looking a bit drunk and show them on TV as miraculous survivors of a horrible crash. Let me illustrate... :drinks_drunk: :ghey:
  11. A good pun involving Hague? United Nations
  12. Hm... I guess the second batch is forming up For now I ordered Thud Ridge, When Thunder Rolled, Palace Cobra and 100 Missions North. + a couple of books by Robert Rankin, who is zany and hilarious but severely underpromoted. Funny thing about ordering from Amazon at that store is that they don't include shipping cost but multiply whatever the book costs by 2.4. So a 60$ order turned into some 150$. And it's 100% pre-pay and I have no idea when the stuff will arrive yet.
  13. Просто они сначала подняли форум для всех после теста, а потом прикрутили бантики В саааамом низу форума находится полоска, в которой есть список для выбора шкурки.
  14. Если кто-то случайно не заметил, форум целиком и полностью переехал на новый движок
  15. Not in the news section you can't
  16. Notice the DS link appeared in the top bar. It's temporarily off-line for maintenance though... or is it?
  17. Via Windows Paint editor. Open the picture with it and save as a .bmp file.
  18. My Secret War looks very interesting, but I think I won't be able to get it since it's not in Amazon's own stock
  19. Sometimes you can have a strange tank battle resolution. It used to give your troops a total victory after you destroyed a few enemy tanks during CAS. Even if in the end enemy tanks were still active and the friedlies were wiped out. Now in those cases I sometimes see "Misson complete" a report of successful capture of enemy positio and the next day map shows the enemy sitill there at that point.
  20. Found out that a huge book store in the city can order books through Amazon, which would be rather difficult for me to do personally - shipping here is awful. A while ago I've put together a list of stuff on Nam I might consider buying. Since it turns out quite expensive I thought of asking for your opinions about the order in which I should gradually get the books. Or forget about them The general list with likns to Amazon is roughly this lot Thud RidgeX Got it! 100 Missions NorthX Rupert Red Two When Thunder RolledX Clashes: Air Combat over North Vietnam, 1965-1972 First In, Last Out: Stories by The Wild Weasels Palace Cobra: A Fighter Pilot in the Vietnam Air WarX Over the Beach: The Air War in Vietnam Rampant Raider: An A-4 Skyhawk Pilot in Vietnam Launch The Intruders: A Naval Attack Squadron In The Vietnam War, 1972 On Yankee Station: The Naval Air War over Vietnam My idea for the first batch was 1. Thund Ridge 2. When Thunder Rolled 3. Palace Cobra 4... maybe.. not decided yet.. definintely one of the first-person accounts. Perhaps Rampant Raider to take a break from big birds So.. any suggestions? Something really cool I missed?
  21. I wonder if they can hold on to the frame through sonic boom.
  22. I don't know about fixed wings but for choppers winter is prefferable. At least here in Moscow. Few currents, air is more stable... Sure, it gets overcast once in a while and the snow vortex is an arse, and the engine takes longer to warm up, and you can't see most of the landmarks under the snow.. but the air is calm In summer it's more of a bumpy ride.
  23. The game assumes that only the primary targets of strike missions are painted. Didn't check it in CAS. So the only targets you can use an LGB on with just a P.Penny are those bunkers, runways, fuel tanks etc that you're told to blow up. With a pod you can go for anything you can lock on to on the ground.
  24. Pave Penny allows A-10 (78) to use LGBs provided somebody else is painting them with laser.
