I am going w Ian's "FIrst, enjoy R2V" idea.  I already decided to do all the R2V scenarios in alphabetical order and nothing else until done.  First battle was easy -- until it wasn't.  I laid smoke, crossed a creek, everything is great, easy win it seemed.  Then the germans did their usual thing, spoiling all my beautiful and super-genius plans.  

Ah, playing that one right now as the Germans. I playtested it a number of times as the French, as it evolved. Now I see what I was up against. Interested to see what the French AI throws at me. It's a fun one. Well, they all are. As Elvis said a while back, something to the effect of how varied and interesting a group of scenarios it is. The campaigns are good too.

Does the civilian car take damage and show damage like player vehicles or is it a flavor object only?

Could it even be a usable unit.....Maybe they reused the mechanics underlying the Taxi from CM:SF?

I really hope we can get the field cap in this module!

LOL nice. It is a good thing that you can enjoy the game when things go poorly. It is very important since we all spend a fair amount of time loosing.

Yes, as I am the one losing in our marathon CMRT battle! LOL

We are close to seeing what the score is but I already feel like you won that battle. I defeated your AT assets and was still unable to press that advantage to clear the objective. So, while I have a toe hold on the objective I do *not* feel like I won this battle no matter what the score says in a few more minutes...

@IanL this is one of the nice things about playing against a friend - you can have rational discussions about your own performance and not have to grandstand about how well you did. Hence us both feeling like we lost to the other.

I’m looking forward to a debrief on this when we get together for brunch.

LOL but neither of us would make very good generals - we should each be proclaiming victory.

Agreed

Are the Polish Armed Forces in the East and Armia Krajowa expected in the module?

I'm also hoping that the Volkssturm opens the door to the addition of partisans to Fortress Italy and Red Thunder.

Yes and my creditcard is stand by, as much as I liked the south african campaign in R2V I would love snow on the german eastern front 🙂.

Are we likely to see a stug iv soon? Feels wrong not having it.

It should be in, I agree. But I don't expect the module before the autumn of this year. Don't have a clue though, so don't take that seriously.Really hope I'm proven wrong. 🙂

Early or late StuG IV?

 

[Xorg_Xalargsky 105]

Well, give the question, one must assume we are going to see one of the two 

[Anonymous_Jonze 33]

I'd really like to see if the Sdkfz 251/22 will make an appearance. It became fairly common in 1945.
