  1. Not saying there's anything wrong with the horizon. Just noticing the difference in height between the left half and the right half of the screenshot.
  2. Great screenshots. I'm usually somewhat underwhelmed by the dullness of posted screenshots before a release (with the exception of those of our beloved George MC) , but these are great. The horizon on the 2nd screenshot looks somewhat funny. I guess the left side is a hill?
  3. Never doubted that this module will be worth the long wait. As soon as it will be released I will take a couple of days off from work to spend a long weekend in snow and frost. Especially looking forward to the Volksgrenadiere with plenty of Stg 44's and Soviet Lend Lease vehicles. And the 251/22 and Jagdpanzer IV L/70 of course!
  4. Never experienced that. Is that soldier stuck for long or does he follow his comrades after a while?
  5. That's an accurate and objective description, I must say.
  6. To be honest I don't understand how any serious wargamer can hesitate to buy CM. There's nothing that comes close to these games.
  7. Nash seems to have obtained the War Diaries of the German 2nd Army from the Russian archives for the period of the end of July and the beginning of August 1944, which includes much information about 4.SS Pz.K. until now these files were missing.
  8. I especially agree on the 2 volumes for the 4. Panzer Division. Very detailed and thorough. Problem is that divisional history books are pricey and only a few new books are published every year in a limited edition. If you're not quick to buy, you have to pay double or triple the normal price.
  9. That's quite a collection, Frank. Is the Tiger book by Wood worth buying? I sometimes wish the history of the Heer divisions was as well documentated as that of the Waffen SS. Some infantry divisions don't even have their own divisional history book, although they also bore the brunt of the fighting. I own lots of divisional and regimental histories, but few of them are as detailed as that of the famous Waffen SS or Heer divisions. Hopefully future historians will fill that gap.
  10. You're right, Frank. The book does start at the end of July 1944. I also own Vopersal's books, they are excellent too, although harder to read than Nash, they are very detailed. I take it you also have Schneider's book on the Tiger company of Totenkopf?
  11. Nash has a pleasant style of writing and is an expert in this field. His book on the 272.Volksgrenadier Division is also very good btw. And yes, good material for the coming module. Volume 2 concentrates on the winter battles in Hungary. Hell's Gate, his book on the battle of Cherkassy remains my favorite Eastern front book.
  12. Looking forward to this. Great subject! If you need inspiration I recommend the new book by Douglas Nash on the IV. SS-Panzerkorps and the battles for Warsaw, July-November 1944, called 'From the Realm of a Dying Sun'. Excellent book, based upon previously unpublished material, including many contemporary German records that had been thought lost but have been recently rediscovered in Russia and made available for researchers.Must have for a Ostfronter! P.s. I take it you are familiair with the Waffen SS mod for CMRT?
  13. Benpark, is it too soon to show a screenshot of the 251/22? Really curious about that vehicle. Mind you, Elvis doesn't want to give me more screenshots, but I hope he is a forgiving person.
  14. All that interests me is the smoke of burning T-34's on the horizon. The more, the merrier. And that winter camo looks cool too. But I like your screenshot too, Ales.
