Would be a grand end of 2023. Poland has a decent government again, in the Netherlands Wilders will not be allowed to stop helping Ukraine and hopefully something finally will be done about Orban.
Don't despair, Ukraine, the West won't abandon you.

Another recording of Muscovite warcrime surfaced: Russian assaulters shot surrendering Ukrainian soldiers:
It's Russian nature to commit crimes. And this time no Mother Russia to avenge or use as excuse for their attrocities. Strange this kind of news doesn't make it to the main media.

I have always wondered why the GUR and Moldova don't team up to get Transnistria back under Moldovan control. I also would be exploring ways to make Kaliningrad a lot less stable for Russia. The US and Europeans should be all over the latter. Russia thinks it is perfectly fine to interfere in the internal order of its rivals, so obviously they think this is a fine way to go about international relations.
Steve
Amen to that.

Does this work for CMRT? I know I've asked this before, just want to avoid problems.

The Dutch have made very sizeable contributions, this however seems to come to an end now with (another) anti-EU alt right wing populist getting elected in Europe.

Nothing will change. Wilders is far more reasonable than Orban and a realist. He's demonised by the media and only could get attention by radical statements, but he's far too smart to risk his opportunity to form a coalition. Apart from that his coalition partners won't stand for stopping military aid to Ukraine, neither would the entire nation, which is firmly behind Ukraine's freedom struggle. Those F-16s will be delivered.
Somewhat less immigation, which is necessary. And more attention for security and defence. Good old crime fighting, also badly necessary. No burning mosques or closed Koran schools. No Nexit, no referendum on Nexit, no improved relations with Putin. If Wilders doesn't except that, we will have new elections very soon.
All in all far from ideal, but Wilders has to pour a lot of water in the wine, as we say overhere.

Can someone please tell me where I can find bridges? Is it under flavor objects?

Just to give you an impression whether it's worth your while. Expect them this afternoon!

I remember, when I have made my first scenario for CMBB in 2004 or 2005. I was confident, it would be a great success and made it available for download.
The first statement of a player wiped out my hopes
it was total crap.
Making scenarios or mods seldom give the maker the appreciation he deserves. That's why one should make them in the first place for oneself. I think even the best like GeorgeMC and Kohlenklau will agree with that.

Not so much understatement Mr.Aragorn
Oh, I will soldier on.
But seriously I will get better and better. I will never give up.
I have unfinished, far from perfect scenarios that are nevertheless great fun to play.

By the way @Aragorn2002, what´s your progress with that campaign? Sounds very interesting
Well, the map is in full swing. Based on aerial pictures and other impeccable sources. But given my own limitations in skill and spare time it will be a scenario, not a campaign. Also the elevations are too difficult for me, so I will keep rhem to a minimum. The subject deserves a more skilled person than I am, but there it is. The end product will not up to your standards, but it's fun to work on, even when it won't be suitable for publication.

Sorry for the missing sources
There are several Russian sources that someone translated in German.
I took the trouble few years ago because books like the history of the 5th Panzer don‘t mention anything about the Soviet OOB.
Regards
Mr.X
I know. Neither does the divisional account of the 50th. Always difficult to get that kind of details.
Btw didn't ask for the source because I doubt you, on the contrary. Just curious.

Much appreciated, Frank, thank you. May I ask where found this information?
-
Yes, still working on this.
Can anybody help me with the Soviet OOB at the beginning of November 1944 in the Goldap/East Prussia sector? I think it must have been units of the 31st Soviet Army that took this town at the end of October 1944, but which ones exactly? Even better would be to know which Soviet units defended the town against the counterattack by the German 5th Panzer division and 50th Infantry division.
Much appreciated.

Is there a way to give every Volkssturm member a helmet?

Thank you, not bad, but not quite what I'm looking for. This is MARSH in the editor, isn't it?

I need some advise. Which kind of ground looks in your opinion most like heath (Heide in German and Dutch) in CMRT?

There are windmills from CMFR onward. They are either in "Commercial" or "Other" Independent category.
Excellent, thank you.
Edit; yes, commercial, the 9th building, nr. 4.

Can someone please tell me how to get a wind mill in CMRT? I guess it's a flavor object?

How can we NOT be interested, EZ. Thank you.

Exactly. Patience and perseverance. And realizing victory is never certain. That's why we need to keep an open eye and also allow other opinions, as wrong as they may be.
