Could you please do a two player version? That would be absolutely great - I love Finn scenarios in PBEM. Just had a blast playing B&T's Panzers in Finland.

Thanks for your replies. Anyone else?

Do you have house rules about blowing bridges when playing PBEMs/TCPs? I'm playing Sword of Bagration now, which is a great scenario, but it seems almost impossible for the Soviets to win if I had started turn one with blowing the bridges? I didn't because I thought it would ruin the game. Several scenarios are depending on the bridges to be intact. Any thoughts about this?

What's the problem with your attitude, Jack Carr? You asked for feedback and got a few different opinions. Why getting all worked up just because they didn't agree?

I don't see anything gamey with that. it's quite common in modern wars blowing a village to molecules before entering it.

How about this one? http://www.militarygameronline.com/TCMHQ/irvehicles.htm#" [ June 29, 2003, 03:39 PM: Message edited by: Hansson ]

Nah, it can still be there for a while. I still value input and will make a new version if needed. I just felt I had been working on it for a long while and didn't want to wait longer before making it available for the broader public.

I've added the scenario on The Scenario Depot, http://ns9.super-hosts.com/~dragonlair.net/combatmission/CMBBscenarioreview03.php?UniqueID=438&Name=Orphanage+Hill . Any reviews or input still highly appreciated!

Yeah, waiting... :cool:

Hey, the tanks have the same numbers, just like in CMBB!

I'm losing... :mad: :cool:

I uploaded my Orphanage Hill scenario I've been working on lately. It's under playtesting and all input is highly appreciated. Maybe you should provide a simple list function? Or maybe something on the front page that says a scenario has been uploaded? The link is http://www.the-proving-grounds.com/scenarios/Orphanage Hill.cme .

I'm surprised I don't find more building mods. Especially the tall heavy buildings could need a makeover, IMO. Is there any out there in any other place than CMMODS?

I doubt you'll regret it!

Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't CMAK at least a half year away? And then how many patches are you going to wait?

Cool, I really appreciate that Chad. Yeah, the AI is much too slow and non-systematic on the attack. As in most battles, I think the coordination of artillery assets, armor, infantry and overall strategy is crucial for the attacker and the AI just can't handle that. I'll probably label it as play first as two player and second as allied versus AI.

Ahh! What a treasure! And I thought all there was was on CM Mod Database... Thanks!

I can't find (on Combat Mission Mod Database) any non-winter T-34/76 '43 and that bugs me as it's maybe the most common tank in the games I play. If there already is a good mod on this one I'd apprecoate if someone pointed me in the right direction. As a sidenote, a mod on the Finnish StuG would be nice too.

Great! I hope you like it. [ June 10, 2003, 04:11 PM: Message edited by: Hansson ]

Ok Stoffel, will do as soon as I get the file! I've sent you a mail Juzzy as I see my e-mail is not showing. [ June 10, 2003, 03:20 PM: Message edited by: Hansson ]

Did you get any playtesters? I can play if someone more is interested. 1.03.

Hi guys! I know there's a lot of requests now but here is another one. I've designed a scenario depicting the Soviet attack against the strategic hills along the Tannenberg line west of Narva in July '44. Units from the III SS-Panzerkorps Steiner was ordered to screen the German withdrawal through Estonia. In the part of the line depicted in the scenario, the Narva-Reval highway is surrounded by the Kinderheimhöhe (Orphanage Hill) and the Grenadierhöhe. My goal is to make it balanced for two players and it would be great if anyone out there could set a game up. I think it will work quite good Soviet against the AI too. So... if anyone is interested to play or at least check it out - please download it and post your comments here (or if it's too much of a spoiler, mail it!). You can find it here (saved in 1.02): http://www.the-proving-grounds.com/scenarios/Orphanage Hill.cme Edit: About the briefings - they are pretty complete, a part from the OOB's (reinforcements are indicated though) and no proofreading by a native... Thanks in advance, Linus Hansson. [ June 22, 2003, 09:53 AM: Message edited by: Hansson ]

On this page you can see a picture of him wearing the german uniform (which according to a uniform expert in the article has several errors).

You can read all about him here!
