Slysniper, any plans of making the same scenario for CMAK?

Dey, you're Puma and PSW winter mods are superb. Absolutely superb. Really.

They look great indeed. Keep them coming, Dey.

Hahahaha...splendid...

Well spoken, Bogdan. But this discussion will never stop, unfortunately.

Stop putting yourself down, Dey. All of your work is of the highest standard. And these winter mods look excellent. Can't wait for you to post them!

In that case, Juan_gigante, I humbly and sincerly apologize. And there is indeed a predictable pattern in C's posting with regard to the larger scenarios. He now makes his own SMALLER scenarios and let's hope that keeps him busy for a while. It makes me lose my temper if people don't see to appreciate all the work involved for great scenario developers like George MC, Panther Commander and now also Shmavis. My sense of humour also seems to be suffering from it now. Personally I think the size of this scenario is perfect. A battle like this can't be played any other size. I'm almost through and will send my comments to Shmavis and George MC this evening or tomorrow. Thoroughly enjoy it!

Why don't you do all of us a favour and play Jason C's battles and leave those of us who like bigger battles in peace? And try to remember the manners your mother must have tried to teach you.

GD, yes, so do I...But I trust he is a man of his word. Must be the lack of time. Happens to all of us. Still...

Great mod, Gurra! Thank you. How on earth did you manage to make that? Really gets me into the mood. Well done!

Absolutely great, David. Especially the Bulge 251's are very welcome. I can almost feel the cold when I look at them.

Perhaps this site is of interest. Don't know who gave me the link anymore, so it might be someone from this forum, in which case I apologise. And it's in German, but very informative about the German operations in the Baltic in 1944. http://www.yogysoft.de/il2/kurland/LL_44.htm

Back to topic. Indeed, this also struck me as very clever. Simplicity itself, but who would have thought of it? Another aspect of his scenarios is that he sticks to the historical reality, but manages somehow to keep them in balance and playable. Don't underestimate the time and energy that must take!

Yes, Shmavis. For instance we could call his remarks colorful language. But we also could call it disturbed social behaviour. But the content is precisely the same.

Very nice indeed. Thanks MikeyD!

What George MC is trying to achieve, among other things, with the Blowtorch-series (and his other scenarios) is to bring history alive as accurately as possible. And that's precisely what he has done. And the fact is that the Germans did use SPW's and they need space to make the best use of them. So you need large, even huge maps. That is the merit of his work. Criticizing other people's work is useful when there is something wrong with it, and useless, even harmful, when the work is good, but not to your taste. We all have other preferences towards scale, choice of units, tactical situation and so on. So what? Respect each other choice and stop discouraging people from sharing their work with us, by tactless remarks and insults. And yes, I'm also refering to another thread in the recent past in which some people who did their best to give us the products of their time and efforts were burnt to the ground. It's just not done.

What a pain in the ass you are. What else did you ever do than produce some overpraised, overestimated and above all BORING 'training scenarios'? Make your own 1000 points scenarios if you feel like it and let George go on with his excellent work. I've been watching your posts for quite some time now, C, and it's high time you stop your megalomaniac comments. It's disgusting. [ March 26, 2006, 10:22 AM: Message edited by: Aragorn2002 ]

Excellent stuff! By the way, George, I bought Stone's book about the GD/250 and it is first class. What a way to relive history. Magnificent. Thanks again for your recommendation.

Combat Mission at it's very best. This is a superb scenario, really, I think I never enjoyed a battle as much as this one. Keep them coming, George and thanks again for all your great work.

Glad you're back, Panther Commander! Another beauty! Thank you.

Very nice, David, thank you!

You deserve a medal for all your work, David.

Any news yet? Yes, I know, I know....
