Ran across this tank in a scenario called "Petrarcholi Ridge" and was unhappy with the in the box version. I went to CMMODs and sure enough MikeyD did a bitchin mod of it. So I put snow on it - Enjoy, DavidI

Submachine guns were assigned to AFVs for Security Purposes. "Hans you stand guard while the rest of us put this track back on. Again!". Etc. Not so that they can come out, guns blazing, when their tank gets KO'ed. DavidI

Mikey, Yeah baby! I knew you could do it! Oh boy! DavidI

Stingray, I fixed that, go back to CMMODs and redownload. I always seem to make some mistake when I do these mass mods. Thanks for bringing it to my attention. Cheers, DavidI

Merry Christmas to the CM Community; You'll find your Christmas Present in the CMBB forum. All of these will work in CMAK/CMETO as well, so.... DavidI

Merry Christmas to the CM Community; Under your mod tree you will find all the makings of Late War Cities, Towns and villages. Most of these are redone masterpieces from Ed Kinney that removed the green tinge from them. Newly done Medium Buildings, revised Juju Church and Cobble Roads. Use these with Juju's "Berlin" Buildings and his Factory for the perfect East Prussian, German, Romanian, Polish, or Hungarian cities 1944 through 45. They look like this: Roofs: And my favorite, snow covered paved roads: Anyway Merry Christmas to you all. DavidI

Mikey, Thats what I thought. I know when I started my Normandy series and my snow covered series that I was getting into something huge. So buck up buddy! DavidI

Oh I can see it now. Let's see 6 Panthers, plain and camo - that's 12 mods. Wait, with and without zim, that's 18. No wait, zim with and without camo - that's 24. Dey doing winter versions, that's 48. Oh baby. DavidI

MikeyD, Working up the nerve for the tanks themselves? DavidI

Back in my WWII reinactment days I was having some tailoring done on my uniform. I went to pick it up at the seamstress's house. When I came out of the sewing room, her father and a friend were sitting in the living room and the friend asked me what I was doing with the uniform. I explained that I was in the California Historical Group that did WWII reinactment and I asked him if he recognized the uniform. His reply was very interesting. He said yes he recognized the uniform and that he had served in the 3rd ID (US). He went on to say "Why the **** would you want to reinact WWII. It was the biggest waste of my life. That war stole four years of my life. Four years of my youth and put me into the most miserable, ****ty, rotten situations you can think of. What a waste!" He hated everything about the war, being drafted, basic training, traveling by ship, Europe, Europeans, the constant exposure to weather, the Army in general, the people trying to kill him (on both sides), everything. He did say that he did make some life long friends, but even then he put in the caviat that he had had friends before the war. Interesting old guy. DavidI

Mikey, But you don't get to sniff the glue. DavidI

Do I hear the far away sound of a forhead being slapped and the word "Doh!"? DavidI

Hetzer, Great Pictures. DavidI

What Patboy said. DavidI

Wow! DavidI

TacCom, You could easily do what Greenasjade suggests with MS Paint. David

George, Ah ya beauty. Keep'em coming. DavidI

MikeyD, Go post a mod or sumfink! DavidI

Lightening War, You just got a huge class in this game, by one of it's great contributers and gamers. I would, however, recommend a good sit down with the rules book and find out what moves/actions are available to you. To ask why you are losing in this game and yet to reveal you don't know what "shoot and scoot" and "covered arcs" are, tells the tale. Another recommendation - don't over study a given scenario. Each scenario, time period, terrain layout will have different challenges and solutions, however the basic principles of game mechanics and tactical sense will always stand you in good stead. Anyway, my two bits. DavidI

Michael, "...what is HDG?" Not sure...initials? If you cannot find it, let me know and I will email it to you. DavidI

Michael, There's a Puppchen in "HDG N Guns Blazing", if that helps. DavidI

I'm here. DavidI

CMAK/CMETO/CMNormandy 70% and CMBB/CMBB Late 30%. But I love both games equally. David

Done with Two Dog's CMBB Brummbar early, MikeyD's roadgear (thanks Pat) and back deck. Snow textures are Astrocat's. They look like this: Enjoy, DavidI PS. Corrected location of shield mounting lugs. Didn't notice they were too low until now. 12/1/06. Doh! DI [ December 01, 2006, 05:36 PM: Message edited by: David I ]

I did a couple of scenarios about Primosole Bridge. One on the British landings night of July 13 and one on the German counter attack on July 14. Were at the Proving Grounds. Don't know if they are still there. DavidI
