    Ok I've just gotta say it once. A lot of people all over the forums (I really don't want to imply I'm picking on you specifically @waffelmann) have been typing 'loose' when they mean 'lose'. There's loose, as in loose an arrow or loosen a knot. And there's lose, as in to lose your keys or lose a fight.

    I tried so hard not to say anything, because it really doesn't matter at the end of the day. I really don't want to be the sort of person who goes around correcting everyone's spelling (that could only come around and backfire on me if I did, because god knows I make far worse spelling mistakes all the time). But this isn't the first time I had to reread a sentence because my inner voice read 'loos' the first time when the intended pronunciation was 'looz'.

    I have no problem being the bogeyman. English is not my native language and I am not particularly good at either English or French (both learned at school).
    I'm happy when people understand what I want.
    But if you have serious problems with my English, please open a ticket on Google.
    It's unfortunate that no one addressed the content.*

    Well oops!

    (I've never done a scenario before...I don't have the patience...)

    I was only hopping to have sone snowing uniforms because I want to created a scen that take really place in Belgium in a weather with snow time, with some British Paras at the end of the battle of Bulge, the battle of Bure, perhaps that nobody know this battle, but was really important because this one of the moment that the SS division on the front was stopped by British Army.

    Funny! I had this battle in my head, too since I recently saw the corresponding video from Operations Room on YouTube!

    ,,,just typing yours terms @waffelmann but dont find something adapted...

    Uh...sorry! That was probably misleading! I meant a Google search to see pictures of British snow uniforms (white!) in WWII.
    I just took the leather vests from the mod https://www.thefewgoodmen.com/cm-mod-warehouse/combat-mission-battle-for-normandy/cmbn-infantry/cmbn-veins-cw-uniforms/ to make the CW soldiers look a little more wintry....

     

  5. When I google the following terms: "british uniform winter ww2", I get some hits with snow camouflage.
    But I openly admit that I don't have the slightest idea how widespread it was.
    But I think winter textures for the tank crews and for the infantry with this leather vest should have been included.... (well, and gloves 🙂 )

  6. As a workaround, it is possible to add the cold tag to those textures with this leather vest from Veins-Commenwealth-Uniform-mod. But the English even don't have any gloves (you'd have to steal them from CMI) and I was hoping that the British paratroopers would get white snow coats.
    So far, I've always been pleasantly surprised by Battlefront when I've repeatedly bought the various Commenwealth modules...this was the first time that I was a bit unimpressed...

    Haven't all the Russian paratroopers been wiped out?

    In "Ice Station Zebra"? No....I don't think they lost a single man...

     

     

     

    However, I was thinking more about the fact that we already have several games waiting for paratroopers from the East...

    I'm no uniform guy (though my boss believes otherwise 🙄). For unused German (and other) uniforms in the BRZs my guess might be that summer uniforms don't get much use in a fall-winter-spring title. I do have a vague recollection of a discussion on this topic back in CMRT module day of Steve nixing the plan for German M44 uniform because it wasn't battle dress. Again, not a uniform guy working off unreliable distant memory.

    Aha. Thanks for the reply!
    But as I said, it's a bit of a shame about the options for the Wehrmacht and SS since they are already in the game and would normally appear in April and May (well at least they do in CMRT)...
