  1. And it's twue, it's twue! http://warandgame.blogspot.com/2009/06/t-34-85-versus-german-king-tiger.html One of the most memorable tank engagements of the war occurred towards the end of the Lvov-Sandomierz offensive in Poland. On the evening of 11 August 1944, Lt. Aleksandr P. Oskin of the 53rd Guards Fastov Tank Brigade (6th Guards Tank Corps) was ordered to patrol the Polish village of Ogledow where he was expected to link up with the unit's 2nd Battalion. [...] On reaching the village, no friendly tanks were located, and German troops were approaching the opposite end of the town. [...] A German tank column entered Ogledow that evening and shot it up, but halted after dark. Although Oskin did not know it at the time, the tank unit was a platoon from spzAbt 501, the first German tank unit on the Eastern Front with Hitler's latest 'wonder weapon', the new King Tiger heavy tank.
  2. I managed to get all the CMAK and CMBB mods, I could fill in gaps if any in the archive turn out to be corrupt due to downloading problems.
