Actually, MJKerner, I didn't keep anything to myself.
I'm going to finish this scenario after the release of Fire and Rubble. I will also make a winter version. For the autumn version I've used a autumn mod I've got from Kohlenklau. His help with this scenario was vitally important.
@Rocketman, does your offer to playtest still stand?

Be careful though, you should balance that with 'other vehicles from other nations might be equally great, or even better'.
Ah yes, how careless of me! You are a true friend, Vacilllator.
Quite the Laurence Fox-experience...

Well spotted, that was the other 'large AFV' in the QB (let no-one make the mistake of calling it a tank ).
Its services were however not called upon as far as KOs were concerned.
Well, actually a Jagdpanzer IV 70A. Great vehicles in a grain field, Jagdpanzers.

Absolutely. That and the Jagdpanzer IV L/70!

Uhu infrared equipment.

A long time ago someone made a mod that simulated Uhu infrared night vision. Not sure how it worked anymore. It would be great to have tanks and vehicles, equipped with Uhu.

Don't think BN has Jagdtigers?
Don't mention Jagdtigers!

I expect so too. But perhaps we will be nicely surprised.

A grammar nazi as well I see?
It isn't grammar, it's a name.

Sometimes one needs to go there.
Especially when it comes to people like you, Arargon.
Afterall, you have quite a habit of historical revisionism on this forum with regards to the holocaust and other nazi crimes of WW2. You have also stated your fascination with the SS serveral times, and I seem to remember you declaring that you almost exclusively play as the germans in Combat Mission, going so far as to refuse even playing as the americans or russians?
Back in 2016 you even went as far as declaring your approval of David Irving, probably the most well known and notorious holocaust denier in the world.
So yeah, Arargon, personally I would go as far as calling you a nazi fanboy.
The absolute worst part of having WW2 history as a hobby is sharing it with scum like you.It's Aragorn, not Arargon.

Not saying that you are a Nazi for playing the Germans, I am doing that myself. But it is naive to think that there is not a big overlap between historical wargaming communities and nazis. Even in this forum, which is generally more well informed than others, I see the old Cold War myths of "Soviets just overwhelmed the Germans with numbers" and "German tanks were superior" all too often. And in my experience it is not far from that to the old chestnuts of "Nazis and Russians were basically the same" or "They just wanted to protect Europe from communism!"
Now maybe I am a bit jaded from having to moderate a discord channel where this crap keeps popping up, but let's just say my view of the wargaming hobby has dimmed a bit in recent month because of this.
So what? Freedom of speech. Freedom of thinking. Say what you want to say in a civil manner. Agree or disagree and take a Beer. Who cares about what you or I think? Don't take it all so seriously.

Why not? There are a lot of right-wing assholes in this kind of hobby, not to mention just uninformed people with a very rosy view of German military capabilities.
Because calling people who like German tanks and such Nazi-fanboys or right-wing assholes is abusive behaviour, mate. And that's not allowed on this forum.

Such an enjoyable scenario. Played it dozens of times and that video makes me want to play it again.

Yep and the nazi fanboys also get their 'we only made 80 of em' Jagdtiger as well. Will the commies get the Valentine III and IX? My guess is it will only be the IX even thought there were thousands of em sent in lend lease and in east action since 1941.
Nazi fanboys? Wehraboos? Do you guys really want to go there?

I would love to see an expansion of your impressive Finn mod to winter uniforms.
Glad to see you full of energy again, Phil!

Now let someone say 'you two should get a room' .

Sorry my friend, I was probably being pedantic. Not knowing the original targetted release date, I can only speculate that it has been delayed. But you're right I'm sure, as it has been a while .
Now let the wrath rain down on me .
Nah, I like you far too much for that.

And I will say that discussion of the 'delay' to F&R has only slightly distracted me from playing FB, BN, RT and FI .
So you keep telling us, my friend, but it's delay, not 'delay'

Oooff, I recollect the time indeed more like @Dr.Fusselpulli
What sticks most, is how annoyed I was, when many of our „professionals“ decided to quit for „ethical reasons“ during the Falkland War. When they were asked to replace the Brits in NATO missions, like the AWACS planes or during navy patrols in the North Sea.
Well, you know better than I of course. Me and my comrades at the time had a very good impression of the Bundeswehr, especially during joint exercises. But decades of pacifism and other dangerous nonsense takes its toll, I guess.
