Heh heh, I clicked on this thread expecting to see a silly idea that I would laugh at, and then it turns out to be something that actually sounds really nice and useful.

It worked. And it. Is. GLORIOUS! All I did was some SP Ramelle, but it was fun as hell. I actually lol'd when I was sniping from churchtower and a Tiger tank paused for a second when I was staring at the barrel pointed straight at me before firing. I had trouble not yelling "PORKER, GET OUT!" *boom* It is fun. I love torrent downloading.

So far the torrent seems to work better. My first attempt (torrent incremental patch) failed, but I think the full torrent might do the trick. Much faster and more reliable than that damned direct download. Guess this day makes me a torrent man.  :P

ooh, sorry man. Mine would take at least 3 days to DL that massive thing.

Try reinstalling your FH2.26 and patch it drectly after. The patch won't work if you have changed files in the original i.e Drawde's mod or any other non-core files editted (Besides custom maps)

Since you have that long to wait to do the full install... Might as well try again
 
Have to try again now. Download failed when it was past 2/3 of the way done. That's about 3 hours now gone to waste.  :( I don't think I'll ever play at this rate.

Me it's sais patching as failed. NNOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
What the .. ?
Same thing happened to me.

Download the full installer then  :D
Already did so. 2 hours and 44 minutes at least left. *sigh*

They weren't, they actually had more rifles in 1941 then they had in 1914 for their army.  The idea of them not getting weapons is a myth propagated by films and then, as it was accepted as popular history, found its way into text books (much like the famed "Myth of Polish cavalry charging German tanks").  Its still not correct.  The actual problem for the russians in Stalingrad was a lack of men, not rifles.  Some divisions had been reduced to just a few dozen men a piece.
I find that odd, considering World War II movies about the Eastern Front were made after textbooks about it. I could be wrong, as I don't know many movies about the subject. My book was from the 90's or so, so I could see that it may be full of misinformation. :-\
My apologies, I'd assumed that Western education hadn't sunk so low.
From what I've heard, the whole "one man gets rifle, other man follows him" did happen, but only once and for a very short period of time around the beginning of the Battle of Stalingrad. And it wasn't because they were cruel, callous, or lacked weapons in general, it was because the Germans just bombed  a supply train. As soon as that problem was fixed everyone had weapons again. At least that is what I have heard.

But i see alot of browns in coloured footage and Propaganda from the time.
Probably looks brown because the uniform itself is faded and the grainy camera quality of the time would probably make it look even browner. Or at least less like it was originally green.

Okay this are aspects that are frustrating me (like that freaking PIAT fired from stand-up position)
I wont play that crap PR, w love FH2. But really its a pain in the ass when some thing are make pure historical and some not.

And for the TaO well You were a soldier in WWII You were fighting on all front and using all tanks/weapons so im sorry... You are right. Im just a fool who watch documentary movies, read books and asking frends grandfathers about they service in WWII on either  ost/westfront)
Everyone and their mothers say they know WW2 vets so therefore they are right. It fails to impress people at a certain point. When you are arguing that German tanks were invincible whereas Shermans and even T-34s are inferior and useless, you have crossed that point and kept going another dozen miles. Really dude.

I get the feeling this guy is confusing the normal Sherman with the Firefly or Sherman 76mm. Those could blow up Panthers from the front, I am sure.

If he isn't confusing the two then he is totally off his rocker. In my experience the Sherman doesn't do squat in-game when shooting at a Panther's front.

Definitely agree with the above. SMGs are space-clearers, first and foremost, and two most important qualities for that are ammo capacity and rate of fire. Nothing came close to the Ppsh41 in this regard. Therefore, the Ppsh is a superior submachine gun.
