    Aye that’s the one. Tank Battle Problems if I mind. I did a series in CMBB. 
     
    Aye could make new maps but was thinking of heading to the map chop shop and slice and dicing some new ones!
    Yeah be easy to do a training campaign. Whole range of possibilities here!

    Spot on thanks  I've installed and playing through an old save of KG von Schroif
    EDIT To Add: That does the trick! I mounted up a load of tracks and sent em into the valley of death. overall MG gunners have a greater survivability now and the MG firing tracks are way more of a threat to enemy infantry. I started losing gunners only at close range - like 100m or so.
    Off we go - like how the passengers are huddled lower.

    Engaging - note how close to the foxholes this track is and note the Soviet soldiers running off. Gunner was nailed not long after but notcied all the gunners made it a lot closer to an enemy position before I started seeing hits.

    Aye good idea. I mind I need a whole series of tank battle problems in the old CMX1 for CMBB taken from a German panzer instruction manual. They're easy to do. Hhmmm...

    Ready for download. It uses my expanded CMRT Romania Mod. Thanks to @JM Stuff for his Romanian helmet!
    In the dropbox is the modtagged mods folder and another folder ONLY USE WHEN NEEDED that changes soldiers names, changes the intro music and the splash screen at the start.
    It is just a tiny teaser scenario to mark the anniversary...

    ROM MALENKAYA KLETSKAYA
    ^
    19 November 1942. Kletskaya, Russia. It snowed last night and the temperature is below freezing. There is a light fog and a stiff wind off the Don River about 5 km to the north. The Romanian 3rd Army guards part of the northern flank of the German 6th Army fighting to conquer Stalingrad about 125 km away. 
    ^
    You are a Romanian Locotenent <Lieutenant> in the 13th Romanian Infantry Division. You are assigned to lead your weakened rifle platoon huddled in the burnt out husk of a Russian village. Your limited construction materials have provided some small wooden hut shelters. You also have a few sections of trench and some foxholes. There is just a small number of guns spread out along your entire division's defensive sector. The length of the sector is double what was taught back at the military academy. Your area has just one small gun as its share. You have one squad out on sentry duty but have alerted your entire platoon. You just called the company on the field phone and your captain has assembled a small reserve team that can arrive at the south edge of your map in 5 to 10 minutes.
    ^
    In recent weeks, the Soviets have slowly taken a bridgehead along the Don. Their probes have expanded it a few times as well. No effort to attack the bridgehead has been made due to our army's limited resources. Things seemed quiet until the last few days. Numerous vehicle sounds were heard. What is to come across the thin barbed wire marking the battle line?
    ^
    Use your limited assets to try and hold back the Soviet assault. THE SOUNDS OF AN ENORMOUS ARTILLERY BARRAGE HAVE JUST STARTED. Take cover! Your sector will be pounded hard at any moment!
    ^
    You have ABOUT 20-30 minutes to accomplish your mission (random additional time). Points are awarded for destroying enemy units and holding your terrain objective. There are also parameter bonuses for both sides for keeping friendly casualties low and inflicting high casualties on the enemy. BunNoroc! <Good luck!>

    Today's evening some unclear explosions in Rostov-on-Don city, in the place where located 834th Air Force Training Center and Missile Troops Military Institute. Local Russian news don't post anything about this. Video is blured, so impossible to see what exactly goes on. 
    Reportedly a series of explosions was heard in Dzankoy, occupied Crimea. A video, whith huge fire and detonations, which now is sharing is not from Dzhankoy. Maybe something will be clear later
    Upd. Reportedly Dzhankoy airbase and power plant hit. The town without electricity

    Hi all
    I've created this post to make available some resources that may be of use to players.
    I've attached the Five Days One Summer campaign flowchart - so you can see where you are going, if you wish. If you'd rather not see into the future then best not read it.
    I've attached the Tigers at Ogledow campaign flowchart - again possible spoilers here so if you'd rather not know, don't look!
    Also I've attached a SPW Training Missions Tactics and Lessons document. This document provides a deeper overview of the doctrine and tactics taught (and used) by German armored panzer grenadier units equipped with the Sdkfz 251 halftrack and its variants (referred to as a Schützenpanzerwagon or SPW) in the later part of the war, around 1944. Its main intent is to provide additional background to the series of scenarios and missions in the battle pack for Red Thunder, in particular the series of three SPW ‘Lesson’ series scenarios. My thanks to @domfluff who reviewed this and provided tactical insight, oh and it was his idea originally.
    Five Days One Summer Wiking panzer grenadier mods - I've added a wee package of mods I used for the grenadiers in the Five Days One Summer. I basically assembled others excellent mods to create a look which is in the Wiking Mods GMc Mix . Main changes are grenadiers are in light battle rattle - no extraneous kit, crusher caps are M43s and senior officer has a 'Wiking' cuff band and a M43. My thanks to the talent and good will of Aris, @EZ (WSS Senior Officer and WSS camo uniforms), @Frenchy56 (Crusher and side caps to M43) @kohlenklau (No-gear mod - the campaign is mod tagged 'no gear') @Lucky_Strike (Senior officer peaked caps to M43s). I used Aris' Soviet tank mods, his Soviet faces and VM's summer Soviet uniforms.

    One of possible reasons of missile accident - improved Kh-101 missiles, last batches of whicn now equipped with EW counter-measuring equipment against SA-missiles. UKR missile could lost targeting or drawn away by EW work.
    Condolences to Poland... Despite this is a war and many wars had border accidents, but... lives can't be turned back.

    Interesting, that Russians not only move own mobilized to existing units, but create new - theese servicemen on the video are remains of company of 359th motorized rifle regiment from Smolensk. This is new type of units almost similar to rifle regiments of LDPR, but likely having own transport or even some light armor. They say their unit has only usual infantry weapon - AK, RPG-7 and... Mosin rifles.
    They tell the comamnd all time was moving them from place to place several weeks and has told them, their main task had to be "to dig". They last position was some place on LEFT bank of Dnipro. The command didn't aware them, that RIGHT bank already abandoned, so they continue to stay on positions as if nothing happened. But one day drones appeared and became to ajust intensive mortar fire from right bank at their positions. Because of this positions of onew platoon were almost completely destroyed and caused losses in personnel. Then strike drones appeared, which were dropping grenades on them, also causing losses. They can't wistand with small arms to the enemy on right bank and not having any communication neither with own battalion HQ, nor with regimental HQ decided to withdraw

    I think that Poland will take some sort of action. Either out in the open or covertly but they will do something on their own.
