Awww, Thanks John! Nice to know people still remember Tiger Valley (I notice my links are broken, must fix that some time...)

Till then Moriarty...

Excellent Work Mate!

I'll give it a shot if I'm worthy and you want to email me the pertinant information. Feel free to edit it as you see fit. (Sometimes I swear it takes longer to write the briefings than it does to generate the whole scenario...)

I think we just have to be patient with CMC... Something like this, where you need to adapt one set of coding with another can be extrememly tricky. (Look at the issues with the CMAK 2 patch) I'm sure the fellas are working on it. I'm sure they want to deliver a quality product when it's ready. Mind you, an update from those fellas wouldn't go astray... As for CMSF. I ain't interested till it's toting Panthers and Shermans. I'll take a look at it then. Till then, I'll reserve any real judgement.

Hit 'print screen shot' while looking at the editor under 'units', paste to 'paint', then under 'image', invert colours then save and print. That way you have an easy hard copy to refer to and it doesn't use all your printer's ink...

Well YEAH !!! I'm still wondering why BFC didn't milk their product for all it was worth with 'Combat Mission Pacific Front', or 'Combat Mission Cold War, 1948'... The hard work was there, so were the junkies. Just a little progamming and mod making they could have pawned out... Money for Jam I would have thought...

Thanks for you're thoughts but I disagree. You should rejoice in your victory and be wary of the fact that next time you fight your 'friend', he will come back a wisened and deadlier foe...

Check out "Kingfish", like SgtGoody said, over at The Scenario Depot II

I've read several of the Stackpole Military series, like Tigers in the Mud, Infantry Aces, Panzer Aces and Grenadiers etc, recreating the battles from the perspective of Knight's Cross winners... so Germans then... They only ever refer to them as Mark IV's from what I've seen and read. Much of these books are based on Combat accounts and sometimes recollections, but in the transcripts from battle diary's they are Mark IV's. I've once seen them refered to as 'The Work Horse of the German Army', but that was probably on a Tamiya set of instructions...

The Ferdinand was quite succesful at Kursk, what let it down was it's inability to deal with infantry at close quarters. The Ferdinands actually broke through the Russian initial lines but were halted with artillery and close combat. Panzerjaeger-Abteilung 653 fought through from July (at Kursk) to late December (on the Djnepr) in the Nikopol Bridgehead . The surviving Ferdinands were progressively withdrawn to Austria for refit where they became the Elefant (with the MG). You can imagine they were well overdue for refit by that time and the crews were in desperate need of a break. The

Right on the outskirts of the city you want a couple of 'green' 76mm anit aircraft guns in trenches. These were actually 'manned' by women crews... Don't go for heaps of wire but be liberal with the mines.

Now that's dedication! (Bless Pyewacket's Map Converter)

OK, Top Work Guys! I've seen the final file and it's a minor victory to NG Cavscout! 58% to JK's 42% Well Done to both of you for seeing this through. Having played it recently myself against a ROW veteren (Steve Sembay) it surprised me how enthralling it was, despite the fact I designed it... It was the most intense game I was playing at the time and I really had to think about my every move! When the Tiger arrived on the scene the Allies were totally overwhelmed by it. Fortunately they were never really present in enough strength to totally dominate events. It took them months to

Hmmm... What can I say here? Firstly, you guys ain't finished... When the phat lady has sung, all will be revealed! That 50.5% : 49.5% result was across 16 games with 32 opponents (Thanks Kingfish ) As far as historical significance goes, the scenario is 'semi historical'... Without a doubt this is a demanding scenario. Playtesting was done by others (credited in the briefing) prior to ROW V and much is owed to them! I've only just played this H2H for the first time against someone else who'd played the Allies before and I was lucky to score an Axis Victory against a very
