Continuing the adult conversation and shooing the children outside There were a number of small mechanized clashes in Java in 1942, a few of which I will scenarioize (sp) ATBA. Not to mention Philippines 44-45 and Burma

Yep unfortunately its not recorded whether these are the MG or LV 37mm armed versions

Thanks for the detailed info Dandelion and Kingfische!

The scenario which generated this question is completed and up at Scenario Depot Small Battles 1 Pz Div Celery 1940 It is the third in a series of 14 scenarios representing the 1st Panzer Divisions attack into France from the 9th to 25 June. (it is actually the second scenario produced the others are at various stages of completion) Once all fourteen are done a campaign structure will be presented for the players amusement.

In a French 1940 Infantry Battalion HQ how many radios were in it and to whom were they suppose to talk to, or was it all wire/telephone?

A few minutes after posting this I found some information that leads me to believe this might be the 13th Infantry Division (Motorized) can anyone confirm or provide info on this units equipment in May 1940? Thanks

This old WWI design was still around and in use, would anyone like to make a suggestion as to what unit would best represent this old beast?

The British launched some counter-attacks at the west side of Amiens. Does anyone know which German unit was in Amiens at that time? The city had been taken on May 20th by the 1st Panzer but they had moved on. I suspect an Infantry Division(s) was protecting the bridgehead - any idea which unit this was? Hans

If you need an early Infantry tank use the later one and remove the main gun ammo

Yes they did they conducted a number of small operations. The scenarios Small Battles, IJA Airborne P1 PTO and Small Battles, Blood for Oil, PTO deal with the Japanese paradrops at Palembang

A quote from AAR on the base I'm building in CM "and a triple strand of concertina wire fifty meters wide laced with Claymore mines." Oh were you ever near Route 9 near Khe Sanh, what type of road was that, hardball, gravel or dirt?

may find this interesting While researching tank battles in the Dutch East Indies (yes they exist) in 1942, came across the sad history of a British tank unit. http://www.geocities.com/dutcheastindies/british_armour.html

Thanks for the info Dandelion, I'll go with that - I would have thought we'd have a Brit/Canuk or US Combat Engineer around here somewhere!

Ran this question at the Scenario Forum and got no answers, the question is: ...For a Vietnam scenario I have some unusually accurate information. The US has 390 US style M-14, M-16 and a few M-18 anti-personnel mines. Anyone care to guess how many CM AP mine counters that might equal? Hans

The Generalismo was a cat man eh Mussolini and Hitler were dogers, explains a lot

Well that looks pleasant..good picture

Thanks Mr. Tittles, oddly I once ran a mine-warfare school for the US Army. Unfortunately I don't recall how many mines were suppose to go into a 20 x 20 meter square!

French vs German

Only after a long day of work and one liter of Sake.

May I suggest for Brits in Italy Small Battles, Recon North of Rome Small Battles, Hussars at Medicina Small Battles, East of Elba (New Zealanders actually) If you like green European landscapes (versus just wanting Italy) then their are a number of Brits vs German scenarios set in 1940. If interested I'll list those out also. </font>

I always enjoy impossible battles with the AI, giving it 50 to 200% extra points and seeing how long I can hold.

For a Vietnam scenario I have some unusually accurate information. The US has 390 US style M-14, M-16 and a few M-18 anti-personnel mines. Anyone care to guess how many CM AP mine counters that might equal?

I disagree this Arab cat I have likes to lay on the monitor I have noted she likes Spanish Civil War scenarios in particular and likes to try and paw the Republican armoured vehicles.
