And of course some vehicles are rare regardless because there were simply not many built; e.g Ferdinand SP guns; only 90 or so ever built IIRC.

Rarity expresses how common a particular vehicle is in the army in any given month during the war. Older models of tanks become rarer, as they are destroyed or replaced by newer models...newer models are rare at first, maybe only a few select battal- ions get them...then become common. Rarity acts a multiplier of unit point cost: rare vehicles (not necessarily good tanks,just rare)cost more points; common ones less. Hope that's clear...

Highliner- 'Carentan'is on the way to you...

It is indeed, von Lucke... 9 battles, each 20 turns fixed... It requires a little commitment....

Any cunning, resourceful bastards out there want to play this classic PBEM? I loved 'Carentan' back in the CMBO days, and recently stumbled upon the remake(by Pud) for CMAK. I'm good for at least a couple turns a day minimum, often more when I have the morning off:) Will play either side happily... Cheers, Matt

Hey George, Currently fighting the final battle of "Peiper's Chariots Of Fire" (PBEM, I'm Soviet)and I've gotta say that the aggressive use of SPW's by my opponent just creates lots of KO'd SPW's.... Without tanks, I shot 'em to bits with ATR's and 45mm ATG...with tanks, the same but they explode...you can kill 'em with the ubiquitous 50mm light mortar as well... Fun battle, though Thanks for your work!
