Very interesting ideas. After losing all my tanks on a number of different tactics, I tried a different variation on a theme. Firstly, I sent all my tanks to the far side of the hill to the NW. After mining the road, you'll need to think where tanks in a wedge formation will go after the lead tank flies 30foot into the air, then plant mines in suitable places just off the track. I then grabbed some satchel bombs and jumped into my BMP and drove down to the signposts just before the town and lay the bombs in a wide-ish arc (I did this twice). I then grabbed some RPGs and ordered my companion to board my BMP and we hared for the town. After disembarkation, he went to ground near the back of the town and I climbed a roof. From here I was able to watch the approach road and was gratified to see 4 of the lead vehicles go BANG! After pausing to regroup, the rest of the tanks drove cautiously towards town, and at the approriate point I exploded the satchels, sending another 2 skywards and wounding a third. From my eyrie, I managed to pop off one RPG at the wounded tank, killing it. I then snuck down the ladder to a lower storey apartment from which I could snipe at men and machines from the various windows. Naturally after a while I was extremely short of ammo, so I essayed forth, taking out a few wounde tank men as I did, and recovered an AK74 and some RPGs. Then I crawled around the town picking off tanks and soldiers. I completed the mission with only the loss of my poor hidden companion, poor soul. No tanks (of mine) were harmed in the process. Which was nice.

Then wouldn't by this definition, the former Soviet Union be imperialists as well?

And the Soviet Union is no more, so there is no "now" about it at all.

I bow in praise of the avonlady. <bow> <bow> <bow> CloneCD. 'Nuff said.

Goddammit!!! Third reinstall, still no luck. I'm beginning to think there's a code problem with Resistance. Has anyone completed Hostages and moved on to the next mission yet?

OK tried that.... didn't work Looks like I'm gonna be taking this back to the shop.

The only "new" or non-original files I've got are a couple of self made kick-ass missions. Oh and Red Hammer. Sigh... Time for a new install then.

Each and every time. You see I complete the mission get debriefed get a huge score like 53840 or thereabouts and feeling v proud I click on continue. Thats when it crashes. I've done it so many times, I've even reverted and started fresh 3 times now. 3 times. No losses. But I can't get to the next misssion

If you mean like Virtual memory then its been variously 600, 800mb and 2Gb and now I let Windows manage it. Desperation, you know

The CTD also happens with the single player Resistance mission "War Cry". Help me out here! If I don't get Resistance running properly soon, I'm gonna have to spend more time talking to my wife Chop, chop.

Crash after Resistance Mission "Hostages" Like I say, after completing the mission I am rewarded with a debriefing screen showing a commendably high score, and, pressing on continue the game pauses briefly before crashing to desktop. Whats that all about then?
