No response from the German server, US file is corrupted. patience............patience

I'll print one of for you, no probs (might cost you a pint though! )

Wasn't there a Canadian VC winner who stopped three Panthers with a PIAT?

Given the pedigree of CM I reckon PIATs will get the full treatment, if not in the Commonwealth module, surely in the Market Garden one.... From Wikipedia page on Robert Henry Cain VC (Oosterbeek Perimeter) On the afternoon of Thursday 21st two tanks approached Cain's position. Guided by a colleague in the building above him, Cain waited in a trench until the first tank—actually a StuG III self-propelled gun (SPG)[28]—was close enough to engage.[29] The SPG fired at the building, killing Cain's colleague and showering him with masonry but despite this, Cain kept his position.[29] Staff Sergeant Richard Long of the Glider Pilot Regiment remembered that through the clouds of dust, Cain fired round after round from his PIAT until the SPG was disabled,[26] but whilst engaging the second tank a round exploded in the PIAT with a bright flash and Cain was thrown backwards.[26] Cain recalled thinking he was blind and "shouting like a hooligan. I shouted to somebody to get onto the PIAT because there was another tank behind. I blubbered and yelled and used some very colourful language. They dragged me off to the aid post."[30] The British brought forward one of the Light Regiment's 75mm guns which blew the tank apart Not exactly a ringing endorsement!

Everything that happened on those beaches and getting off them could be represented; bombardments, wire, mines, obstacles, the escarpments, marsh, trenches,foxholes, bunkers, the valleys/ draws leading of the beaches, engineers, AFVs. It's all in. As for the actual surf, you'll have to use your imagination because 'Charles don't surf!'

Interesting stuff.. This has certainly opened my eyes a bit (and almost certainly saved me from humiliation at some point it the future). In terms of depth CMBN is looking like the Mariana Trench... Just a quick question....How will special ammo type(s) be handled such as PzGr.40 /42 (German), APCR (British) and HVAP (US)? Will they be abstracted or appear in the load-out for each vehicle? Cheers for the AAR.. Keep 'em coming...

At last!! Already have a week off booked for Easter..sweet...now I just have to prepare excuses to explain why I'm not gonna leave the house for a week.. PBEM anyone?

Would be happy to oblige just for Barkmann's Corner!! PM me where to.

Guys!! You know that bar I pointed out to you..... I did remember to tell you it was a tranny bar didn't I?:eek:

Massive thanks to Other Means for hosting the preview. The six hours went in a flash... I'll post again later when I'm a bit less pushed for time, but just to say... It's awesome!

Cheers, Am in Rigby's now.... How do you spot a CM player?

I'm in! Will be in there early!
