What year did the Germans start painting camo on their armour? All the early war film footage I have seen, including the early years of Barbarossa, have them in the standard grey. Only in the late Russian and Normandy footage do I see camo patterns popping up. Does anyone have any documentation of when it actually became a standard practice? ------------------ I'm sorry, we haven't the facilities to take all of you prisoner. Was there anything else?

Thanks for the info. You guys rock! Ordered Spearhead and Where the Iron Crosses Grow today. Also ordered a sample from both Heroics n Ros and GHQ. I can't wait to get painting. Now if I could just sell all of my unpainted Napolionics.

Wesreidau, I checked out your site and must say I found it very nicely built and having some excellent content! I think I'll purchase the game in question now. Holdit, Wow, these look like excellent book titles. Exactly what I had in mind. Do you think they have them over at Amazon? Reno, Amother excellent looking site! Much thanks. MikeO, I enjoyed Gettysburg, so this is a welcome surprise! Didn't know this was planned. Thanks! Monticello, Another great site...my bookmarks are getting filled up! RedDevils, How much you selling those miniatures for? I'm at work right now ( ) so I have to look at all my stuff when I get home. I would think about $4 a box (they are $7 to 9 new) would be about right. Ofcourse if I don't get any buyers soon my girlfriend may throw them all out! Email me for any more inquiries! <HR></BLOCKQUOTE> Sorry for double post! [This message has been edited by Red Devils (edited 10-07-2000).]

I've got a ton of plastic napoleonics (the small stuff) to unload cheap if anybody is interested. Prussian and British mostly. Unpainted still on the sprues and mostly unopened. (Hat, airfix, Italeri etc...) Ahhh, the army that was never built. Sigh.

Can anyone tell me what units/organizations (if any) contained the various Czech tanks in the German army at the outset of the 1941 Russian campaign? Were they still in use at this time or were they all being converted to Self-propelled guns at this stage? [This message has been edited by Red Devils (edited 10-07-2000).]

I have gamed w/ miniatures for years (15/20/25/28/54mm) but am just planning to move into 6mm WWII. Therefore I need recomendations on figures (6mm), terrain, and rules. I am interested in Regimental to divisional size battles (no 1:1 stuff) dealing w/ the early war years ('39 to '42). If you recommend a particular rule set please include why and what the scale of the game is. Thanks in advance for any responses. Please feel free to post any 6mm army pics. as well. Cheers. ------------------ I'm sorry, we haven't the facilities to take all of you prisoner. Was there anything else?

Sorry, afraid there are only shadows. I can't speak for BTS but I think that they figured the amount of memory needed to do the different nations planes would have likely slowed the games playing speed to a crawl on most users machines. Maybe in CM2 if you ask really really nicely. ------------------ I'm sorry, we haven't the facilities to take all of you prisoner. Was there anything else?

<BLOCKQUOTE>quote:</font><HR>Originally posted by 109 Gustav: What do you mean, Red Devil? <HR></BLOCKQUOTE> I read in a post here quite a while back that the names of squad leaders in CM were taken from actual board members right here! I guess for CM2 your name will have to be German, Slavic, Hungarian, Italian or Finnish. So much for us Irish! ------------------ I'm sorry, we haven't the facilities to take all of you prisoner.

I heard that this was done in CM1! ------------------ I'm sorry, we haven't the facilities to take all of you prisoner. Was there anything else?

Yes, I still play this. I was not very impressed w/ the scenarios included in the original game. I am thinking about picking up the mission pack #1 w/ extra scenarios but I wanted to know if anyone else has it and likes it. Also, what battles come in the expansion pack. Thanks for any info.

All the cheese that those frogs eat leaves alot of gas build up in french houses. I think that's why they blow up. ------------------ I'm sorry, we haven't the facilities to take all of you prisoner. Was there anything else? [This message has been edited by Red Devils (edited 10-02-2000).]

Fear not oh you who doubt the sniper! Yes, I too doubted their power but low, I am a believer. After having played every scenario and op. in CM (some as both sides) and having not seen much done by snipers at last one earned his schnaps ration. While playing Op Carentan (my favorite) for the third time I had a FJ sniper take out a US 3-man mg team in the open in one turn. Well done! Ok , so it took me 150 to 200 games to get a good kill, you can't say it doesn't happen! ------------------ I'm sorry, we haven't the facilities to take all of you prisoner. Was there anything else?

Not much here that I can add that hasn't been well spoken already. But I am in favor of a unit "rarity" point system. Thanks for asking CM. ------------------ I'm sorry, we haven't the facilities to take all of you prisoner. Was there anything else?

Pvt. "You're gonna shoot me over Ryan?" Srgnt. "No, I'm gonna shoot you cause I don't like you." Pvt. "Well go ahead Sarge. Shoot me in my leg and give me that million-dollar ticket home." Srgnt."I'm gonna shoot you in your big, fat mouth."

I just checked. It's George Nafziger. If you do a search on this site for his name you will find his site. It should have more info than you need.

Any insights are appreciated. Hopefully the article will be up tonight! Chris <HR></BLOCKQUOTE> Hi. Sorry, I don't know his full name or his web address, but there is a man w/ the last name of " Nafziger" who has published OOBs for just about every army and battle in history.
