Vergeltung

Heya fellas, looking for some advice/suggestions. For CMBB, the terrain mods were legion. I picked some out, and the game was transformed! I found no such treasure trove of terrain mods for CMAK. am I missing something? or, is it just my allergy medicine, fogging me as usual. :cool: any suggestions would be great. TIA.

cancel that order sir.

google (or search amazon) for George Nipe, Jr. I have many of his books and they are all EXCELLENT. especially his more recent ones, where he scoured official captured records on microfiche, etc. Some of the titles are Last Victory in Russia, Decision in the Ukraine, and Platz Der Liebstandarte (solid phot-oriented book with his running commentary). (I'd post links but I think there's some rule about links to commercial sites, or the like. no?) Enjoy!!

I forgot to add that though I'd prefer German, I will gladly play as a Hero of the Soviet Union should the nunbers require.

Hiya fellas. The Scenario Depot is down this morning, and I was wondering if anyone had that scenario for CMAK called Tiger Valley? If you could spare a minute, I would really appreciate it if someone could e-mail it to me. I just spent 2 hours this morning d/l numerous mods from CMMods for CMAK and was looking forward to playing it. Thanks!

I have to check my source(s) (my copy of Nipe's book is in my office), but I think he got his hiney handed to him at the 3rd Battle of Kharkov. Something about the name rings a bell. will advise. :cool:

very secksi Davers. :cool: nice work!

lol. the old flashback, eh?

this is a great thread. it should be "stickied".

nice sentiments gents. there is a steep learning curve, and I think alot of people are letting that get in the way of their good times. a little patience goes a long way. if the game was easy, we'd hear nothing but "oh man the AI sucks" etc.

Vern, I am a bit late to this, but I'll chime in anyways. I have been played CMBB/AK for a shade over a year now, but only recently began to mod the game. start with the terrain!!! you will not believe the stunning visual transformation the game undergoes. seriously. on CMMods, sort by mod type, and you'll find terrain items. "Ed's Trees" are a must. as well as anything by MikeyD. there are also numerous "buildings" mods that are great. as far as units, start with your favorites and go from there. Agree with MikeyD re the PzKwIVs. life does not even begin without a good PzIV.

the winter stuff can be tricky, and I think some of the seasonal settings are a bit off. for example, I cannot get winter stuff to work in March 1943, but it works in Feb 1943. wierd.

dave, very secksi!

mmm, whatever it is, it sure smells better, that's for sure.

don't worry chazzy, the water is on the stove, and your bah-bah should be warm enough soon. just in time for that desperately needed afternoon nappy.

that was pretty cool.

I'm in. Even if just to make our two names real confusing and stuff.

there are some great uniform & equipment mods at www.cmmods.com check out the three files of Waffen SS skins, and there are numerous others as well.

thanks for the update. looks like you guys are working hard. thanks again!

the three stooges, if you ask me.

looks cool man, thanks for bringing it "back" for some of the newer people (like me). I will check it out for sure.

damn! I thought it was as about original as it gets. guess not!

.........

yeah, this should be a helpful section. soon.
