Why not use military symbols?
Dan5681 replied to Bil Hardenberger's topic in Combat Mission Campaigns
Hey Nerd King, you can download Panzer General 2 off JP Panzers site (military history and gamers forum), it works sound mate. -
Hello all, I am looking for info regarding the 277HAA BTY who were a part of the above regiment. I know they were destroyed on the 20th of June 1942 at Tobruk then reformed but after searching for a while I havent come up with where they were on the line, or which formation they were with. Could anybody check any references they might have please. Thanks in advance Dan

Hey Hey ladies and gents. Just recently somone close bought me a book I already owned, my immediate thought was to give it away on this forum to anyone in England Wales or Scotland because of shipping costs. The first to answer these questions will win the 900 days the seige of leningrad by Harrison E Salisbury. 1. what was the 15th Guards rifle division called before it was given the status of 'Guards'?. 2. who was the commander of the Tirpitz for its first two years of commision?. Thanks. Dan

Books and info about Leningrad battle???
Dan5681 replied to KNac's topic in Combat Mission: Barbarossa to Berlin
The 900 Days, The seige of Leningrad by Harrison E. Salisbury. KNac this is one I Picked up cheap in paperback recently. Its title is almost the same as the Glanz one so I dont know if you will have seen it. It doesnt look like it has loads of maps or anything but it has over 500 pages dealing with the seige. Unfortunately I have yet to read my copy so I cant comment on it, sorry. Hope you find what you need mate. Dan Amazon UK has it for 6 quid -
What are the different units in the game?
Dan5681 replied to lcm1947's topic in Combat Mission: Barbarossa to Berlin
well as far as I know (and many know a lot more) it goes like this... Pioneers are Engineers Jeager are Light infantry Auk...them, there Recon erm grenadiers I dont really know I think those and the Fusiliers are basic infantry types. Somtimes Companys of Inf look the same the trick is to buy a Battalion and look at the differences there. Hope I help mate oh yeah and if not try here... Fieldgrua website Dan -

CMBO and CMBB Mod Compatibility
Dan5681 replied to Tacitus's topic in Combat Mission Archive #4 (2002)
I know all the Mine markers work. I tried some the other day and they didnt need renumbering either. The walls and hedge should work and the barbed wire in theory but I havent tried them yet. Personally I wouldnt mind looking at bringing some of the snow mods back but wouldnt know how to really, ah well I can only do small no brainer tasks. Dan -
A thought about placing damaged buildings
Dan5681 replied to Dan5681's topic in Combat Mission Archive #4 (2002)
No sorry, mate should have been clearer, what I meant was if you could use the same process as placing rubbled bridges and rubble on fire to be able to swap a building from on fire to partially damaged (not rubbled). So if I start with a building on fire view it and then swap it for a normal building would that create the desired effect?. Unfortunately it doesnt but maybe that is the way It could be implemented in the future. Sorry I wasnt clear. Dan -
A thought about placing damaged buildings
Dan5681 posted a topic in Combat Mission Archive #4 (2002)
Hi all, I just opened up a scenario and took a look around and noticed that all buildings on fire look damaged (obvouisly), now is there any way to replace the building on fire with one not on fire and keep the damage? (al la rubbled bridges). I dont really know but it just sorta struck me as a way to maybe work around it. Has anybody tried this (I bet all things have been tried by now but yknow) well thanks for listening. Dan -
Hey Thanks mate, now my Icons are complete. I was actually waiting for these to pop up and when I saw that you could add these I thought I would ask. Cheers Dan
-
RK, Thanks for the effort they were the scenario icons I used in cmbo and were my favourites. I dont suppose I could be cheeky and ask if you could make the finnish Icon into the Finnish Swastika like it is in someone elses mod, I foreget whos now but it would be just the ticket. Great job with the new flame, its about time somone did away with that gaint orange slug!. Thanks for listening and the Effort. Dan.

Could anybody help me, plus I cant find which BMP the Landmark writing is Id like to return to the original Blue. Ive searched for about the last hour but cant find anything in the forum I remember a thread not long ago with a bmp list in if you could just tell me the name of the thread. Thanks Dan
-
I think you have to load it. first go into program files and cut and paste it from the scenarios folder to the saved games folder. now in the custom map screen load it using load game. now you can use the map any way you want. Dont know how the original designers feel but as long as you are using it for personal games I dont think theyll mind. The above is just what I think dont blame me if im wrong.
