Continued from my previous blog entry, this Combat Mission Shock Force 2 (Demo) scenario which I played against my friend Olaf. I'm recording it in the form of a video. Please make sure to check it out at YouTube for a high definition version.
In this particular entry, so many things happened.
A horrendous friendly fire incident, for which I am responsible for not properly managing the fire from my Bradley IFVs.
Then, careless losses of two additional Bradleys, due to my inability to use positions in defilade.
Olav continues to surprise me with his refusal to post defensive positions facing directly to my gun muzzles.
Cheers,

DCS: P-51D Mustang - Glide Bombing
With the recent fixes and upgrades, the P-51D looks stunning and flies great in the DCS World skies.
I have plenty of un-played content in the form of campaigns and one of those has the P-51 as the main airframe. One of my non-complete items of the P-51 pilot syllabus is bombing, which is needed in the P-51D Operation Charnwood Campaign (Bunyap Campaigns).

Combat Mission Shock Force 2 Marines Module - Across the Canal V2.0
Back in 2012, I did put together an scenario for the Marines Module. Recently, a fellow gamer was kind enough to open it in Combat Mission Shock Force 2 and play it (this is a link to his video). I thought there were some interesting war gaming nuggets in the scenario so I re-edited for the new version of the engine.

Armored Brigade - Hunter-Killer Operations
M3/M1 hunter-killer teams have been widely used by US Cavalry formations during both Iraq wars. I generated this scenario in Armored Brigade to test their effectiveness in the times of the AirLand Battle doctrine.
In this scenario, I have a platoon of M1 tanks and a platoon of M3 Bradley CFVs. We have been ordered to advance against light opposition (one platoon of T55s and a platoon of BMP-1s) and reconnoiter a few areas of interest.
