Jesus, I'd love one of those...

Great Stuff!

"Wet Triangle" was designed by Frank "Franko" Radoslovich for CMBB and was one of the initial scenarios for ROW V. "Sqeezing the Melon" was designed in CMAK for ROW IV by Jeff Weatherspoon and was one of the first round scenarios. Unfortunately neither are available for download since the collapse of the first Scenario Depot but if you email me I will send them to you... My email is in my profile.

Yup! Either way, H2H or AI... it gives the details in the general briefings...

I popped downstairs and took a snap with the wife's mobile of the 'construction site'. Here she is, the Tiger, sitting atop the base that is under construction to the left of the Tirpitz. Like I said, She's coming...

It's coming... A change in my work arrangements and winter here has meant the base has progressed slowly as all carpentry must happen outside... I won't be routing the base from one solid piece of oak, it is all Australian oak but the base is assembled with prerouted sides, probably more fancy but about half the cost to airmail. Airmail cost nearly as much as the total cost for the T-34 last time with the solid base. It's nearly done... No changes to the tank itself, which is an excellent sign (bar the aerial, straight and true) and I must say it's been looking quite superb sitting on my scanner here and I've been enjoying it a little myself before it goes away... forever... Nearly there! You will have your Tiger soon!

Try "Battle for the Reichstag" or "Across Moltke Bridge" available if you hit the link to my scenario pack in my sig.

You might want some sort of add on video card...

Excellent write up! ...And your Moltke Bridge AAR is one of the best I've ever read! T'was awkward transforming the bridge and the river for CM. In reality, the bridge lays diagonally across the river when all other landmarks are considered. Unfortunately the CMBB engine doesn't allow for diagonal bridges... so when considering the scale of other things and a need to adhere to the general lay of the land... there's always a lttle compromise! Great Stuff BigDuke! Photo depicts the German side of the bridge from the diplomatic quarter on 29th April 1945

Good quote and nicely said by Rune there... IMO

This is SO going to get moved...

Really BIG artillery always helps... 150mm+

Yup... Problem is with the map size and the orientation... It's 3km x 3 km. The AI isn't coping with that...

I've got a HUGE QB map that displays the same problem... Unfortunately I need the map the size it is... I can't get rid of it despite many permutations with the map converter. About 4 hours later and the Allied units always turn up at the same point, even when you make that point a water obstacle...

I'm having this issue with a Huge CMAK map for a QB at the moment. I can change the orientation of the map with the map converter, the Allied units ALWAYS end up in the same spot regardless, even when I make those spots water obstacles... After 4 hours of playing about nothing has solved the issue...

Definitely Gripping! Highly recommended and Very realistic... Good Work!

The other option would be to have no set up zones, and to play where they lay...

No

Tiger Valley is not recommended for play against the AI, it was designed for the ROW Tournament and to be played between two people, either by PBEM or TCP. Game balance and playability has been entirely focused around this fact. As Kingfish suggested, "put a human in charge of the Germans"

And thanks to you, WineCape for putting up all that wine... I must admit I had a few wines over the course of building the tanks, mostly Sauvignon Blancs and Rieslings with the occasional Cab Sav... Ironically the whites were always well chilled... and much more so than the tanks

Here she is a Tiger I from the 501st as served in North Africa This is an Academy Early Tiger with much scratch built stuff and some metal etched accessories plus special tracks. Finished with Humbrol enamels, Tamiya acrylics / enamels and the Tamiya desert weathering kit, also a graphite pencil First couple of photos are with my wifes mobile phone, the others are with a buddies digital camera... I still need to cut, route and varnish the base... but we're getting close now...

Sweet! That really is great stuff! BigDog's Tiger is nearly done too, I'll have to post some pics

I got your scenario , now all I got to get me is one of them !

Please send them to me aswell Jason, email is in my profile... Thanks! [ April 09, 2006, 08:03 PM: Message edited by: Richie ]

Excellent Stuff! Looking forward to giving them a run.
