That may be true but if you look at the sheep per capita you'll find NZ rates well above Oz.
I'm sure half the people in Oz have never even seen a bloody sheep.
Sheep jokes = Kiwis NOT Aussies.

Anything is possible
Where do you live?

Ah ok. That doesn't surprise me.
Thnx again mate.

Thank you very much for that mate. That gives me something to go on.

I know this is slightly out of place here but........
I'm led to believe that Erwin Rommel published a document on tactics before he left for Tripoli to command the Afrika Corp. I believe it was mainly based around the use of the highly mobile panzer divisions.
Does anyone know if a version was ever translated into english?
Does anyone know where i may be able to track down of copy of it?
Any help is greatly appreciated before the thread is locked up.

The problem with all "Infantry" tanks in Tank vs Tank role is that it has very limited Shaped Charge rounds.
They are Infantry Close support tanks and i believe should be used as such. Those few shaped charge rounds are for defence aginst enemy tanks more then offence.
My 2 cents worth

Oh yes! Korea would be great, and IMO much more interesting than doing a Pacific Theatre CM (which won't be done anyway, but I just threw that in for confusion).<HR></BLOCKQUOTE>

Well I'm in Australia and it got here i under a week!!!.
As mentioned go and download some mods and read up on tactics. For when the CD arrives you won't have much time for stuff like that
These are goos starts
This site is run by one of the game's designers Madmatt. It has just about everything you could possibly want to know about CM.
This is an excellent site that is very well laid out. Also hosts a huge variety of scenarios and operations
These are good starts while you wait for the game.

Thnx mate. I just sent him an E-mail then.

Yeah that can be quiet ammusing to watch.
The 88mm Pillboxs seem to be a sucker for this.
-
Yeah I'm not arguing that it DOESN'T happen but......I don't see it as so much of a problem compared to the AT gun Hide/Ambush/Fire argument Parrabellum just bought up.
The fact that as soon as you un hide your AT guns they fire at every living thing until Arty blows them away is a much bigger problem.

The only comment i heard from people that where actually there!!! is.
There is no way you could walk around in the middle of the day in open field without being shot at.
Thats just one of the small glitches in the film.

Normally if they are facing in the right direction and have some chance of hitting there target they will take a shot before pulling back.
-
Yeah I'm not real good at that sort of stuff though.
The ones i've seen are brilliant to say the least. I don't think i could create anything anywhere near as good.
If there are no vacancies or nothing in the pipeline and plenty of interest. With help i might see if we can get something else organised.

I've noticed alot of "Role Playing" campaign style games around the place using the CM Engine.
Band of Brother's - Winter Storm
CMHQ - META Campaign
Dogs Of War - War of Wills
I have signed up for a few of these, quiet a while back now but have never got more of a response then, "your on the reserve list"
I'm very interested in getting into one of these "Campaign's".
Does anyone know of any active such games that are looking for people?

As mentioned above CM's AI isn't brilliant but i've never seem a wargame with brilliant AI.
If you thinks CM's AI is bad have a go at Close Combat. Then you can really see some bad AI.

Thnx mate. I just downloaded it then. I'm normally not into short missions 25-30 turns but i didn't notice that this scenario is 2 different battles depicting the 2 days of the one battle.
Thnx mate

Any idea when it will be done mate?
-
I'm not sure what you mean by "Feel". If you have 100 hundred rifle squads i suppose it doesn't hurt as much loosing when 1 as it does when you only have 10.
Either way, i like large battles and am still looking for some.
