Someone knows this book?
von Paulus replied to Crinius's topic in Combat Mission: Barbarossa to Berlin
Evgeni Bessonov was interviewed on this website The Russian Battlefield , and I hope to buy this book in the future ... I'm sure that it is good and interesting stuff, but too new to be reviewed by lot of people. Try it. Paulus -
At the top of the page there should be a "Downloads" button. Click on it and look at what appears on your screen. ... Oh My God, I can D/L the demo here ! :cool: ... I must admit this was pretty unexpected Then you download by clicking on the demo you want to try. Paulus

Amazing work, surely extremely pleasant in the game. Can't w -
LOL I've never seen such a mess on that forum Seriously I can ensure you that there were lots of confusions between "Combat Mission : Afrika Korps", and a Real-Time Strategy based game "Afrika Korps vs Desert Rats". People who are not particularly interested in WW2 games made a lot of confusions with these two games, I saw that about 4 or 5 times with some of my friends :eek: ! I talked them about Combat Mission and they thought I was talking about Desert Rats who is more know due to its larger commercial release. BFC some opponent company is disturbing your productions Who released such a useless RTS ? Paulus PS : Sorry, but WWII RTS sucks ...

It makes me remember a game (CMBO - The Wrong Turn) where I knocked out a concrete 75mm bunker with 3 60mm mortars ... they did light a fire in the area ! The crew was forced to abandon the bunker ... I was astonished, as far as I thought there was no hope Anyway I think the best way to destroy bunkers is to assault them with infantry, or as said before, destroy them with heavy tanks. For example, JS-2 tanks easily destroy concrete bunkers, even against Pak40 75mm guns. (It is less dangerous at long distance though)

I particularly enjoy the maps ... perfect for some Quick Battles ! Paulus

Dey : I think von paulus was referring to axis minor captured russian light armour --> No ! I was talking about that because I'm currently playing two battles taking place in december 1941 and january 1942. The soviets still use a lot of T-26 and BT-7 (and even tankettes) By the way I agree with tooz. Paulus Ps : Tooz if you search well I think you can find winterized versions of all hungarians tanks. Proofs : I got them !!!

Advice on t-34 vs STUGs???
von Paulus replied to Hinkar's topic in Combat Mission: Barbarossa to Berlin
It makes me remember the scenario 'Lonely Country' , where **Spoiler** I knocked out the last StuG with a frontal penetration at close range (less than 100m) with tungsten rounds of 76mm ... Well I think thungsten shells are only late war for soviets but this is still interesting to keep that in mind. -
Most prisoner taken mid battle?
von Paulus replied to securityguard's topic in Combat Mission: Afrika Korps
Once, I took 32 soviet prisoners in a 2000pts CMBB Att/Def. These guys were all cut off from their HQ, which probably explain why they surrendered. In CMAK scenario "TF Stark" I also captured 25 american soldiers (once again, mostly green troops or crewmen; isolated) It is very useful through the victory points they give. Paulus -

Of course there were fights in the sewers of Stalingrad : losses are possible if the troops encounters some enemy fire. The main problem is that sewer movement is very long, so it takes lot of time in a scenario to achieve a successful and useful move.

Made my first big mistake in CMBB, playing H2H

Well, that wasn't catastrophic, too ... -
Modders - How about an updated 251/9 Stummel
von Paulus replied to David I's topic in Combat Mission: Afrika Korps
Modding a SPW 251/1 and a 251/9 for CMBB alte war would be nice, too. Paulus -
