When I climbed into it and tried wiggling it free it got detached from the platoon and had no route line.

 

Perhaps next time I'll use the 3D menu from the stuck Bradley and have the other Bradley tow it. It happens 50% of the time in that scenario.

So I realized I was missing one little part of the process, and finally did it right:

So my lowly, solitary M-2A2 was cornered out of gas (fuel leak) with a T-72 barreling down on me. So what did I do? I de-barreled it!

BUT WAIT THERE'S MORE! Afterward it stalled out in the open a couple miles after that. Its gun knocked out, no 12.7 (I hit with the Bushmaster too), I sent 3 M-113s full of infantry with pocket rockets to finish off the Ruski invader... but before they could even disembark and take up positions...

The T-72 just blows up!

The Brad's 25mm must have hit some component that started a small fire inside that finally killed it.

But not even THAT was all- afterward I repaired the Bradley and fueled it up, and as they and the M-113s passed back and forth south to north, a single Ruski infantry man was shooting at us as we passed! That's right- the TC or driver or whole crew ran over to some trees and tried to ambush us with AKs.

THAT's some brilliant AI, I say.

Oh one of the M-113s just drove over there and .50 cal'd them. But still- WOW!

Go take a look in the AAR. I've never seen this behavior nor do crews have ground models IIRC.

Ah-ha. You were right.

While I was embroiled in an infantry fight up North, two BMPs tried to join up with the T-72 and my Bradley and M-113s/Infantry dispensed them. One Ruski soldier was left, and he was the source of the plinking, not a survivor of the T-72.

The first 10-12 minutes show my Brad taking on the two tanks. Then skip to 41:00 to see me discover the BMP attack and its associated pesky survivor.

Didn't want to ruin your excitement over our great programming skillz...

Between shooting the gun on the T-72 out, my infantry fight up north, and the AAR.... I learned a lot about how much more this sim has to offer.

As soon as I'm back on my feet medically and working again I'll update to the latest version.

Plus, I've only been playing armchair Captain for 2 years sans West Point training. I know I have so much more to learn and emplot in sim. Surrender conditions, timed battles, mine fields, aviation assets...

...Fighting Germans a la The Ten Thousand by Harold Coyle....

I only wish the Damage indicator window in the little bottom right would specify just what systems were damaged. It would be awesome to say -and show- that my Bushmaster took out the main gun on that big bad Ruski.

Maybe I watch my son play War Thunder too much.... but it would be informative.

I created a mod for trees to make them less "glowy" and look more "shadier". I zipped up the file but the website (Upload Mods page) wont accept it. It says:

I compressed to both .zip and .rar. Can anyone help a civilian armchair armor LT. out?

 

Here are some screenies of how it looks:
