    In two recent PBEMs, I have lost a Panther each time to artillery fire unluckily landing on the engine hatches. 

    Just saying 😱.

    Not cool!  Condolences.

    Ha!  Oh, I know!  In one of my CMBN battles I had a 60mm mortar drop a round right into the open top of a PSW.  It's amazing when luck turns your way.

    But then...sometimes there is nowhere to go and nothing to do but sit there and take it.  I'm keeping my fingers crossed.

    Here's my guess: CM Pacific Theater!

    I know, I know, Steve has repeatedly stated they have no interest in it but, hey, 979 guesses to go...

    This!!  They said they had no interest in CW either....

    I would literally chew off my own left leg, slather it in tactical space butter, and eat it for CM Pacific.

    And if they did do it, it would open the door for every tropical/jungle/island conflict moving forward.

    Not really on this topic at all but I completely agree with you about the Italians. It's a damn shame that there is only one Italian campaign and only a handful of scenarios. I wish someone would do an Italian focused battle pack for Fortress Italy. I love playing as them because they are such an odd faction. Plus, those Brixia mortars are absolute 🔥🔥🔥.

    I played Lemon Hill, PBEM, me as the Americans and completely fell victim to thinking this would be a piece of cake, I mean, it's the Americans against the Italians right?  Those mortars devastated me.  It was eye opening.

    Me too!  Happy New Year to you too.

    That first picture is great for camouflage, the tank (yes there's a tank) kinda merges in and out of the grass 👍.

    And the second picture is disgraceful 🫣.

    Haha!  Yes, indeed!  

    I just loaded up and finished A Muddy Affair, against the AI with me as the Americans.  I remember you mentioning it before.  Apparently I had never finished it.  Well, in getting completely excited for the new CMFB module I went back and fought to...a draw.  Basically the historical result as well.  That one is like chewing on a handful of nails.  So tough.  Those German defenders fought like devils.
