42:10 Flame fougasse - flame mines look devastating https://www.warhistoryonline.com/world-war-ii/flame-fougasse-wwii-era-britain.html Still plenty of concrete pillbox bunkers around - where I grew up in S.E England there was one by a river in town I played in as a kid and many others dotted around along roads, junctions & along the coast.

Flammpanzer 38 range too short

The extra splash range for FT units, esp foot mounted, comes in handy in night battles! -
Flammpanzer 38 range too short
Wicky replied to Bulletpoint's topic in Combat Mission Final Blitzkrieg
Just did a quick test Flammpanzer 38 area targeting 44m ahead* with a foxhole of allied personel at 55–60m away - and splash effect causes suppression & casualties. *Area Firing seems dependent on how it is set with regards to action squares - so depending on range can appear to be able to target 50m ahead but vehicle simply won't fire. -

24 SAS were killed by a mortar strike in Termoli Following the taking of Sicily and shortly after the capture of Termoli on the Italian mainland, the Germans counter-attacked. Wiseman had just left his truck to talk to a messenger from his CO when the vehicle received a direct hit from a shell. His whole troop was killed or injured. It was, he said afterwards, the worst moment of his life. https://books.google.co.uk/books?id=yvrNCwAAQBAJ&pg=PT173&lpg=PT173&dq=Termoli+mortar+truck&source=bl&ots=lAosoHrlh5&sig=ACfU3U2Ycru9J9a8l8ev6lIwdpk-GrLkqQ&hl=en&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwjp1bfLtOzkAhX6SxUIHQWhBWIQ6AEwEnoECAkQAQ#v=onepage&q=Termoli mortar truck&f=false -
The 'Never Say You've Seen It All' Thread
Wicky replied to Machor's topic in General Discussion Forum
'I stole a plane to get out of the Navy' "So I started the engine, switched the radio on and the control tower started asking who I was, what I was doing. I didn't answer. I taxied and then…" He rubs his hands together theatrically and shows me his open palms like a magician delighting in performing an elaborate disappearing trick. "And then…. I was gone." -

As mentioned some gound level bushes will help with concealment - but at relatively close range given time/turns they can still be still be spotted even if they have a targer arc. Stealthily crawl em in - get them to call in their fire mission - hide - unhide when spotting rounds are coming in. Good luck.

Not I imagine then for art school - entrance to them was from demonstrating some form of eye hand drawing ability - and this was honed by life drawing , first from plaster casts and then life drawing in the classical tradition. There was in acedemia / pre-camera a heirarchy for artists where the best emarked on careers as Figural / portraitists, then lower down Landscapes, then the lowly Still Life artists. Things now are a bit more flexible - Hitlers work reminds me of when I first attended life drawing at an One year Arts Foundation Course (pre Uni) following A' Levels and I was seated next to an aspiring industrial designer - and he produced a wonderfuly drawn picture of the room inc plumbing/ radiators etc all in perfect perspective but where the nude model was meant to be was just a blank untouched silhouetted outline. Here's what the precociously talented Picasso (b. 1881) and Dal (b. 1904) i were doing in their early teens. https://mymodernmet.com/picasso-early-work/ https://www.wikiart.org/en/salvador-dali/all-works#!#filterName:Period_early-years-1917-1927,resultType:masonry
