Hmmmmmmm we could reverse sides, the Germans could have R-35s vs a 'French' Jagtiger??
-
I knows it nuts to say so but it would be interesting to be in a CM game set in June 1940 and acting as the commander of a German tank platoon equipped with Pz IIs and running into that thing!
-
What would the bog percentage be for this baby?
At least you'd get a platoon (-) of crew after they jumped ship.
-
J2D is that on Panzer Commander's scenario?

Thanks for the info Denwad!

Hey I don't even know how to spell moddling but I support your efforts 100%!

The general theme of a ridge line! Relatively the same troops.Originally posted by junk2drive:Will they all play the same with different armies and terrain? Or will the equipment and experience vary the outcomes?
IOW, do I play them all?
-
Yes a very good museum!
-
I just wanted to add that if you ever get bored with 1944 west front or the east front, try 1940, a weird world to immerse oneself in....

Something much odder, a French design!Originally posted by David I:Hans,
Is that a picture of my kid's robot transformer tank? I'm going to check his toy box.

Hmmmm truck towing an artillery piece - good idea.

Evil? Moi?
In this case it will be representing a something that should be moving slowly - but that is still secret.
Yes some of those early war Brit tanks DO suck like Plan 17 but what the hey.
-
Bil that is cruel
I've looked at Arras too and found it a bit over whelming, enough material for several operations and battle scenario series!

One more time.....

Okay, without back tracking on the link can you tell what this thing was?
-
Either, it'll be moving on dry terrain, grass or railroad tracks. I'm presuming a tracked vehicle would be slow - Brit tanks? Hmmmmm Which is the slowest, a Matilda?Originally posted by patboy:wheeled vehicle or not ? 'cause it all depends which terrains are used rocky, snowy, grassy ...etc

Small Battles Republicano Ridge SCW,is up at the depot. A Spanish Civil War version of the balanced, made-for-IP/PBEM scenario.
Set in July 1937 to the south of Madrid.
Pershotraveneve, Petracholi and now Republicano Ridge are small scenarios designed for balanced IP/PBEM play.
Coming soon will be a Korean war version "Bad Ass Ridge", two pacific area versions, one for the US in the Pacific "Yano Ridge" and for the Brits and Japanese in Burma, "Bloody Ridge". A "not yet named" Ridge scenario for 1940, Germans vs French is also forthcoming.

What is the slowest Allied vehicle?
Any nationality and any time or place okay, just need a SLOW vehicle.
I need a real slug for a scenario design.

Update, Collision and Malaga were completed while Sesena was never able to be completed - it wasn't possible for the AI to do what I needed it to do!.Originally posted by Hans:Gentlemen
CMAK looks to be an excellent vehicle to continue scenario development for SCW. The San Miguel Valley campaign (Operation) will be delayed until CMAK comes out as the terrain of Spain is closer to Italy and Crete than Russia!
In CMAK about two dozen scenarios for SCW are in the planning cycle, I've got the material just need that editor in the CMAK release!
CMAK will not have the host of Republican used armour, especially the T-26 but I suspect the Italian M series tanks can take its place (poor armour and 47mm gun)
Most of these will be Small Battles but one will be a fictionalized (and much smaller scale) invasion of Ibiza and Majorca - an invasion and counter-invasion operation.
[For Pedro - yes yes yes I will do the French Internation Battalion meets the Italo-nationalist CV33 with flamethrowers - somehow.]
In CMBB three more scenarios are slowly grinding their way to completion - I've been involved in other work.
1. Small Battles, Collision - is upcoming and in playtesting and is a semi-historical of the typical clashes between columns during the Franco advance towards Madrid in 1936, plenty of miserable armour, armoured trucks and various militias.
2. Small Battles, Malaga - in the finishing phases - looks at a post-Battle of Malaga pursuit of the Republicans by the Italians and Falangists.
3. Small Battles, Sesena - the T-26 romps thru Morroccans, artillery, trucks and Spanish Cavalry.
Finally if any of you have resources for SCW battles, information, OOBs and maps in particular - please let me know! My Spanish is limited so materials in that language are particularly sought.
Someone else did the CTV battle but I don't recall the name.
-
There are SCW battles in CMBB and CMAK, at one point I started a larger operation "San Miguel" but never completed it - SCW players being far and few, a new SCW scenario for CMAK will be out in a day or so.

Yes I've used that in several city fights, this reflects the chaotic nature of city fighting - especially wiht militias and irregulars involved.Originally posted by junk2drive:I refer to the use of snipers/ss as farm boys with hunting rifles, old men, civil disobedients.
You may have a need for 5 regular reinforcements and 20 snipers at various places and turns.
Maybe not likely, but you could see the need.
Unlimited slots would be best.
Works well in cities as the reinforcements points are usually inside building, multiple entry in regular terrain means they either have a long walk or they can show up behind or inside the enemy forces.
-
I've done several scenarios which use multiple low percentage chance reinforcements. They can be rather interesting-if a bit chaotic from the troop management stand point.
-
I believe Panzer Commander started a series to cover that battle but I don't recall what he named it.

Perhaps I need to get to that scenario but I'm restarting school today.
