Fire and Rubble Update

Nice to hear about the improved Soviet oob. Lots has been said about smg issue, but what about carbines? The long mosin nagant rifle was phased out of production in early 1944, with front line infantry receiving the M44 Carbine instead. The 57th Guards Rifle Division, which took part in fighting around Berlin, reported 806 M44 Carbines, compared to only 580 M91/30s, on 1st of March 1945.

Elvis, keep these bone fragments coming , very much appreciated!

OK. These are some @George MC screenshots. I liked them because they really capture the "feel" of some of the battles we've been playtesting. 

Also, as a loose status update. Anyone who remembers why I started this thread may remember that March 31st was an important date. We're now in April. Full focus has now shifted back. It never stopped....we got at least 2 fresh builds since I started this thread....but it's back in full gear.

Seeing the screenshoot I've problems for wait for the release of the module. Somebody of the dev team can answer next questions, please.
- Will we have a last Pz IVJ version with two cylindrical exhaust pipe and three return roller instead than four?
- Will we have some KV's models finally?
- Will German forces use captured weapons and the new m-44 uniforms?
- This is not 100% historical but, what about JS-3 and T-44?
Thanks.

I think kv-1 even kv-85 will not be included 😭

Yes, Germans are getting M-44 uniforms. Volkssturm are using a really weird assortment of captured weapons. Germans even started making their own version of the British Sten smg, which is a really funky addition.  The game's all caught up on PzIV types. Steve even added 'legacy' PzIII types because he's crazy. I think an additional 7-8 vehicle types got added to the original vehicle list (much to my surprise 'cause I'm the one who has to texture them).The closest you've got to KV in the game is the SU-152 which uses KV-1S chassis. CMRT basegame almost got KV-1S. They had the model all made. But nope, it fell outside the scope and timeframe so it was out.

Doesn't matter what Mike thinks in case as he wouldn't be making the call.  :)   It is of course possible he knows things he's not allowed to say. Let's find out. Mike, yes or no, do you know things you're not allowed to say?  🤐

You wouldn't BELIEVE the things I know that I'm no allowed to say! :D ;)

About a CMRT vehicle pack adding out-of-timeframe vehicles, that's not really how BFC flies. They make painstakingly researched historical tactical sims, not World of Tanks. Eastern Front 1945 doesn't resemble eastern front 1942 at all. I gasped when Steve added PzIII to the module but that was specifically for the northern Baltic region where they were still in use 'til war's end. They even refused to include Panther D model because its 1945, not 1943.

I didn't ask what he knows but what he thinks of the idea...

I understand the problem, but the use of the vehicle's would still be governed by availability within a scenario so it wouldn't get any more out of hand than situation we have right now.  Or would it...
