Flammen, I´ve had RL issues here. Will return you a turn soon, please be patient.

All Group 8 members accounted for during this weekend. As a note, I´ve just checked the reception of files, they were in the non-desired mailbox. Setting up.

No problem.

For what is worth: Benghazi from the air, 1964 (J Cooper)

I would say it must be similar to a Etat-Major de Brigade Légère Mécanique (Light Mechanised Brigade Staff) probably bigger, with more batmen and signals. Add a couple infantry platoons for escort, AA guns, several armored cars,...

Here are a few links on the final battle of that wars, at Cuito Cuanavale, with wildly conflicting versions: Minefield map of Cuito Cuanavale Brief cuban version of that battle An absolutely opposed version of the same battle 7th South African Infantry Battalion and Cuito Cuanavale (1987-1989) Castro explains why Angola lost against SADF The military defeat of the South Africans in Angola Monthly Review, April, 1989 by Horace Campbell -- -- -- I assume you have this one The Battle for Ebo, by Cobus Venter ((and what a bombastic music it has!))

Don´t browse-and-select. Check before you hit install in that moment: it creates a C:/program archives//battlefront/CMAK/new folder in that line so, you delete that new folder and simply let C:/program archives/battlefront/CMAK/ and then install. I explained myself badly up-before, but that is what I mean. Try this and inform.

Same happened to me. Run the Install again and check carefully location: it opens a "new folder" on your CMAK directory, delete that "new folder", run the install and it would work well.

Iam Ishora. Outskirts of Leningrad, between Kolpino and Krasny Bor. The Spanish Volunteers Division (also known as 250 Division and "Blue Division") arrived to this front on September 1942. The russian have been advancing with sappers works, until on 27th December they occupy Iam Ishora. They take two bunkers, one on each side of the road, and parallel to the old tank ditch, a chain of several others. (( and, only a few days later ... )) Source: "Soldado en tres guerras" Alfredo Bellod Gómez, Editorial San Martín, Madrid 2004 Comandante (( Major)) Bellod was the CO of the 250 Assault Sappers Battalion, divisional unit. - - - According to the book "Nieve roja", the death of Lt Muro was caused when returning to own lines, observing a new type of russian mine, he tried to recover it for study, but the mine was trapped and it blasted inflicting him grave wounds. He later died in the hospital, and was buried in Mestelewo. Also, in other parts of the book, the op beginned at twenty five minutes past one, with a fire barrage with 36 guns. The sappers advanced on the minefields, and a quarter of hour later they entered the enemy parament and fight in close combat. Forty minutes after the beginning of the op, it was a success and the sappers returned. "Nieve roja", Fernando y Miguel Angel Garrido Polonio, Editorial Oberon, 2002.

I concur, those formulae always made my head fuzzy. Must be said, though, that the fuze type is a superfluous one. By default, to kill shields always were used delay ones -if available-. And the shell brinell was, well, the better you could built for that kind of shot. That is a pre- WWI formula, and it was infered from experiences with real fire. Since the article gave no data on that experiences, I searched, and found this brief article, unrelated . Yes. I prefer the empiric method, if possible: - - - Magazine "Ejército" Year XV nº 176 Sep 1954 ((My Description of the figure: Trench of 2 meters approx. of wide, with cover of 2.24 ms wide, formed by - down to above -, layer of tree trunks, earth cover tamped of thickness 5´ with lateral and sides of sand-bags, layer of explosion, also covered of sand-bags. It forms a sloped triangle, with angle of 21º with land line, 5.14 meters of length measure the cover, covering 4.80 trench meters, that it opens by his end with an exit slit. )) (( BTW, yes, the figure mixs measures, or it seems. )) ----------------------------------------------- Revista "Ejército" Año XV nº 176 Sep 1954 (( Datos figura: Trinchera de 2 metros aprox. de ancho, con cubierta de 2,24 metros formada por -de abajo arriba-, capa de rollizos, cubierta de tierra apisonada de espesor 5´ con laterales y lados de sacos terreros, capa de explosión, a su vez cubierta de sacos terreros. Forma un triángulo, con ángulo de 21º con el terreno. Mide la cubierta 5,14 m de largo, cubriendo 4,80 m de trinchera, que se abre por su extremo con una salida. )) (( Ah!, por cierto, Sí, el dibujo mezcla medidas )).
