Is anyone aware of a CC5 patch that deals with the odd arrival of US Engineers and the overly easy destuction of AT guns by indeirect fire?
I did come across one a while back, but it messed up the game a lot and didn't really work well - it was a beta though.

Have you installed the 5.01 patch?

I cannot recall if it is patched now. I've downloaded from the link you gave and will probably check it out tonight. At least I have a patch if not. Does this patch fix the quirky arrival of the US Engineers and the extremely vulnerability of AT guns to indirect fire?
Thanks for that[][]
