Yes, move (or copy) the ORIGINAL bmp files from the installed CMBB game bmp folder to a (say) "SAVED ORIGINAL BMP's" folder.
Re folder discipline I recommend you put that saved original bmp's folder in your CMBB folder someplace, so you don't have to clutter up your desktop.
I also find it useful to name a saved bmp folder for each item - eg "1943 PzIII" so you don't end up with one huge folder with a mass of bmp's that you have to search thru (if you ever want to restore the original bmp's).
ok another factor that may be a problem. I recently bought my CMBB of the internet. How will that effect this?
And too back up can i just copy the whole CMBB folder and save on desktop? or do I have too sort through BMP'S?

You can download many CMBB-CMAK mods from this link.
Basically, you download the mod on your desktop ( or in any folder ), then open up that mod and copy & paste it directly into the CMBB or CMAK BMP folder...Remember to back up your files in case you dont like the new mod.

an by backing up you mean making copies of all the files and putting them in a folder on my desk top?
Sorry for noob questions but I haven't ever tampered with mods on CMBB.

I see the dark steel mod on the Battlefront repository.
But how do you install it? and I also see a Mark II should I get it rather than the other one?
Any help would be much appreciated I really like the looks of this mod!

It is the start of the Eastern Front deployment that I am interested in ie the fighting around Kharkov in March 1943.
"In Early February 1943 Totenkopf was transferred back to the Eastern Front as part of Erich von Manstein's Army Group South. The division, as a part of SS-Obergruppenführer Paul Hausser's II SS Panzerkorps, took part in the Third Battle of Kharkov, blunting the Soviet General Konev's offensive. During this campaign, Theodor Eicke, while flying above enemy lines in a Fiesler Storch spotter aircraft, was shot down and killed. The division mounted an assault to break through enemy lines and recover their commander's body, and thereafter Eicke's body was buried with full military honours. Hermann Priess succeeded Eicke as commander."
I have an account of the fighting around Kharkov from Vizh which recounts the actions of a Russian Infantry Battalion engaged against Totenkopf. It refers to 'heavy tanks' which I took to be PzIV.
yes they would most likely be Panzer IV's with armor skirts maybe.
Totenkopf didn't have many Tigers yet. And from what i have read most Tigers during the Kharkov counter offensive where with Leibstanderte or Das Reich.

In my mind the panzer count is probably one of the best.
If you wanna try my 3rd SS series i'd appreciate it. i want comments and suggestions. especially for the 1941 operations i'm doing.

In the earlier periods of the war equipment destroyed or beaten beyond repair would have been hard too replace. subsequently after the nations in WWII switched their economies into total war mode these losses where replaced quite easily.
A good note or point example is albert speer's miracle with the German economy. By the end of the war he had more arms and armaments made that there were soldiers too use them.

Also here's Kaunas version 1.1
I got some better information about the amount of T-34's committed too the area.
also took away a Stuka for the Germans too even it out a bit more.

Next in the scenario in the series covers the divisions push along the Lovat river towards one of the few bridges in the area at Kholm.
Standing in their way is a regiment from the 27th Army tasked with holding a shrinking perimeter around the city and stopping II Korps advance along the
Kholm - Pustynki road.
This is last battle before the division is transferred north too help capture the city of Chudovo to help cut off Leningrad.

Hi there new too this forum but a long time vet of CMBB, bought it when if first came out have been in love ever since.
I've decided to start a historical unit/campaign project that follows some of WWII's most famous fighting divisions through out the war.
I'm starting with the 3rd SS panzer grenadier division and its part in operation Barbarossa with army group north.
The next couple scenarios will follow the divisions advance through the Baltic states and finally the divisions encirclement in the Demyansk pocket.
If there are those who want too contribute feel free.
other wise here is the first of what looks like too be many scenario's.

Got a historical scenario i made about operation Windsor i want to upload for the community BUT for some reason i won't let me.
