  1. Your memory serves you well. PS - I recommend Von Rosen's memoir as he was a keen amateur photographer and consequently it is illustrated like no other 'Panzer Ace' type memoir that I can immediately think of.....Also he doesn't strike as a terribly ardent nazi, which is nice.
  2. The whole point of that monster tracked carriage was to minimize the setup & emplacement time on a gun with such heavy recoil. Also there's a big difference in the degree of setup & emplacement required for the gun to fire directly at what is effectively point blank range, compared to conducting a sustained indirect fire barrage.
  3. CM:BB didn't actually cover the 1939 Winter War, it started with the 1941 Continuation War (however it wasn't hard to model the earlier battles as most of the required units were present).
  4. Agreed.....MGS isn't exactly overloaded with ammo to start with and it's job is definitely not hunting for modern main battle tanks.
  5. Cool! How's this coming along.....A bit of 'Cops & Robbers' might be just the thing to sort my mood out!
  6. Me too.....Same scenarios, same order (same result in 'Brutal').
  7. Reverse image search on the Yandex engine is a particularly powerful tool in this regard too.
  8. The lack of both T-64 & T-72 would pretty much rule CM:A out IMHO.....CM:SF2 would get you closer.
  9. I would absolutely support @Haiduk's call for these weapons to be included in the module.
  10. If I had to guess I'd say the smoke is at the heart of it.....When @umlaut selects the team, the tank vanishes and you can see the smoke cloud appears to cover its 'Centre Body Mass'. Might this be the cause do you think?
  11. Interesting, & IMHO convincing, rebuttal to another article that I know has been posted around here somewhere, but which I can't currently find: https://mwi.usma.edu/city-not-neutral-urban-warfare-hard/ However I thought the denizens of this thread might find it worthwhile, if they've not read it already.
  12. Try making an interlinked cluster.....On stilts: It's the stuff of madness I tell you!
  13. Regrettably my stuff will definitely require NATO & Marines.
  14. If neccessary you can set up a 'stooge formation' just to provide extra mortar (& other) ammo to your main units.....Just add a similar sized unit, set all the vehicles to dismounted to provide your ammo dump(s), then delete everything you can from the formation, before setting whatever remains to arrive in a post-battle reinforcement slot.
  15. That makes absolutely no sense whatsoever. Unless you are trying to trick gullible westerners:
  16. Man I'd kill for that (although the maps would take quite a while to make), but the current limit is something like 4km x 4km or 5km x 3km.
  17. If everyone stuck to the same naming/tagging conventions, IMHO this would be an excellent idea.
