    An interesting idea. I think half points is a bit extreme. But IIRC it was something of standard practice to shoot vehicles until they burned, this might make that more common in CM games. Say 100% points for burning vehicles, 90% for knocked out, 80% for abandoned. This may skew game even more infavor of the attacker though.

    The defender will simply have to use the "shoot 'till it burns" tactic.

    BTW, I went to the site you gave and a search by book title turned up a blank. Do you have another source for it (the website says that you can't order individual books direct from them anyway), or should I just go to Amazon?

    Michael<hr></blockquote>

    Do an individual search and just put in German Campaigns i found it

    You wouldn't happen to be one of those buggers in England who owns a yellow painted tank and drives it about would you? I saw something on The Learning Channel a while ago about English people driving STREET LEGAL TANKS(!) around on the streets with no problems.<hr></blockquote>

    No, but only because i live in canada. We tend to frown on that sort of thing here in the new world

    German Campaigns of World War II

    Good book. Contains info on every german campaign of WWII, land, sea and air. With maps, diagrams, units, it's an amazing book.<hr></blockquote>

    Colour maps, colour PHOTOS, colour diagrams of key weapons and equiptment!The book goes into alot of detail.

    example: Market Garden map shows (in colour)

    attacks by each side each day

    drop zones

    formations

    terrain info

    publisher: http://www.grangebooks.co.uk

    hardcover 192 pages

    Most of the colour photos are german, but it's still pretty amazing some of the colour photos in stalingrad.

    not bad for $20

    We've all heard about those "horror" stories

    (or "miracles" - depending on yer PoV) about

    37mm gun armed Stuarts K.O.ing Tigers at 300m.

    Perhaps in CM2:BB, BTS could implement a more

    detailed detailed shot display, rather than

    saying "turret penetration", say:

    "gunsight penetration", "vison slot penetration",

    "struck round in barrel", etc to dull the pain :D <hr></blockquote>

    "Shrapnel hit the driver in the left eye slightly imparing his driving skills"

    "Immbolized"
