Got it! Thanks, Gordon!

Got em! They look great in game. Thanks.

Oh daddy-o! This aughta be good! Best of luck with your work on this one. I'm sure it will be a popular mod.

These are great mods. Thanks.

This looks great. Going to give this a try. Thanks for all of your hard work.

Very nice! These are must have's. Thanks.

Thanks Dey. I'll be installing it in CMBB this evening then. Great mod!

Andrew, I did not see in your text file that these mods could be used in CMBB. The ambush Panzer IVJ is awesome. I would like to be able to use this in CMBB as well. Is it compatible? Thanks

I got em! Great mods! Thanks Andrew.

Those flakpanzers are beautiful! Thanks!

Bump! Has anyone seen these tanks?

This looks kinda neat. I'm going to get this when it comes out.

Both of these mods are great. Will you be posting them on CMMODS when it comes back up?

That Panzer IV/70 is awesome! The netting is a nice touch. Thanks

JasonC, Thank you for making this post. I feel better about the whole discussion. "Wal and Jack apparently misunderstand this point continually, thinking I must be not testing or doing something wrong since they see it as possible." Not to worry on this point, I understand where you are coming from. 99 times out of a 100, I play QB's against the AI. When I play Russian, I almost always end up doing a mad rush once I have used up the available terrain. If there is a Tiger, the mad rush usually results in a battlefield filled with burning T-34's. I think from reading the beginning of your last post, you understand where I was coming from. Again, thanks. BigDuke6 - "Some children are so spoiled, they throw fits if they don't get their favorite toys." This definitely doesn't fit me as a player. As far as playing the Germans goes, my personal favorites are StugIV and PanzerIV/70. I do however like to play with Tigers. Here is a typical battle that I would set up using the QB generator: 1500 points - Allies +50%. October 1944 - This almost ensures that the Russians will have T-34/85's or 76mm lend-lease Shermans. Allied attack - Dawn - Clear - moderate foliage - small hills - village with no damage. Both sides are pure armor. I let the AI pick the Russian forces but as I said before, because of the date, it almost always ends up with a couple of T-34/85's or lend-lease Shermans with 76mm's. I prefer to have the Russian experience set to high so they have some veterans or better. For the Germans, I pick one or two Tiger I's, usually veteran or crack. On a rare occassion, I mop up, but usually my Tiger's end up getting knocked out after three or four turns. Of course, this isn't a test and doesn't prove anything, except maybe that I overestimate the Tiger's ability when facing 15 or more enemy tanks. Great fun though! You guys seem to have a wealth of data at your fingertips. Historically, what kind of odds did a Tiger crew face?

I disagree. According to the early posts in the thread, it was the issue. -------------------------------------------------- The tests that I ran AND the tests that you ran prove that losses are possible. I go back to my original statement, I lose Tigers and Stugs to T-34 76.2mm's all the time.

I'd have to agree with you with these particular screenshots. There wasn't much of a difference. I'll continue to look swap the settings to see if I can get a view that appears markedly better with mipmapping set to trilinear.

Whoops! Sorry...

Holy smokes! The ambush camo scheme mod is really great! I just love this game. Guys like you just keep making it better. Thanks so much for your hard work. CM may put Tamiya out of business.

You are indeed the new frontrunner. These are great times!

Communist propaganda. Everybody knows there were no bananas to be had for love or money in the Communist block. </font>

There was a "How to knock out a Ferdinand" thread in which I suggested this very method. One has to keep in mind that tropical fruit was scarce on the eastern front.

76mm's on T-34's. Ranges were slightly in excess of 500m. As I pulled the Tiger in, the frequency of penetrations increased. Please keep in mind that these were side shots.

FYI for anyone still interested. I e-mailed two screenshots to RedWolf. One with mipmapping set to trilinear and the other with mipmapping shut off.

I just tried this test again and the number of penetrations increased. I dropped the Tiger crews experience to conscript to slow its response time. That was the only change I made. Instead of 1 out of every 10 shots penetrating it jumped to 1 out of every 5. The Tiger was quickly knocked out.
