@Badger73 No. A few weeks ago tried to upload Hurtgen mods with Hurtgen scenarios, I learned TSDIII at FGM maxes out at 50MB. So, it must be separate if stored there. But for my dropbox self-serve, there is no issue! However, the vehicle mods are mostly pappagoat's so it depends on his wishes/plan. This first scenario will be a small subset so I can make a special folder with one download link. You'd still have to send mods to z folder and scenario to scenario folder.

CMPzC Operation "Bloody Christmas" (Ortona '43)
kohlenklau replied to kohlenklau's topic in Combat Mission Fortress Italy
The final battle will soon begin. Early July will see the Canadians cross the Start Line and commence their urban assault! My thanks to the players listed in the below "poster" and we hope to have some good AAR action in the BFC and FGM forums. -
Due to time constraints, I will write the first scenario for allied human vs axis AI only.

Some Fortress Italy Christmas bones...

Molte delle persone di cui sopra hanno richiesto un "osso italiano"... -
Another tool in the toolbox. Open the link, scroll down to Belgium. It opens in French or Dutch and you can agree to the terms and then zoom to get some very nice topo contours. Combine this with the old WW2 US Army maps and you can make some sweet CM battlegrounds in a jiffy. https://dzjow.com/2012/04/12/free-online-topographic-maps-for-hiking/ I have a new small scenario in the works (with some mods). 10th Armored Division's Team O'Hara vs Panzer Lehr, 12/19/44. Working title....... "Busting out of Bras"

kohlenklau Hurtgen Mods
kohlenklau replied to kohlenklau's topic in CM Final Blitzkrieg Maps and Mods
OK, I finally uploaded the Hurtgen Mods to CMMODSIII and the 3 scenarios (so far) to TSD3. So maybe anyone afraid of my dropbox link (Rick Roll? ) can use the safe method with bootie over at FGM. -

Using FB:s background sound in BN/FI?
kohlenklau replied to Swant's topic in CM Final Blitzkrieg Maps and Mods
ok, thanks. AFAIK Jorge's sound mod seems to ONLY be weapons sounds so I just wanted to emphasize that Waclaw's is not only weapons sounds but voices and other sounds. -

kohlenklau replied to Swant's topic in CM Final Blitzkrieg Maps and Mods
I couldn't find Jorge's sound mod at CMMODS. Is it listed only under a certain CM family? If so, which one? -

Did you ever give waclaw's sound mod a try? -
Assist needed on research for a scenario!
kohlenklau replied to kohlenklau's topic in CM Fortress Italy Maps and Mods
@grunt_GI Jerry, I looked at that page in Army at Dawn and that was December 42. Sounded juicy to make somebody a nice scenario. But I am now way too tight on time. I will stick with the Kern's Crossroads story for now. -

OK, I just found my paperback copy of Kasserine Pass by Martin Blumenson. I finally have the complete story figured out and both axis and allied units. Hooray, I can make the scenario historical! -

Thanks Jerry. The mystery gets deeper I suppose. I have that book here somewhere... I need a young female intern! -

kohlenklau replied to kohlenklau's topic in CM Fortress Italy Maps and Mods
Thanks. I will look through it for any nuggets of info. Maybe I need to go through the axis side for better info! Hahaha by the way I always see this actual Sdkfz 251/1 Ausf C (with rivets) from 10th PD. War trophy captured and brought back from Tunisia. At a nearby museum I spend a lot of time at... But now I think the mueum folks messed up the insignia as 10PD was NOT part of DAK but was with 5th Panzer Army and Von Arnim, correct? -

kohlenklau replied to kohlenklau's topic in CM Fortress Italy Maps and Mods
Still finding only vague remarks. Now I know it wasn't DAK but 10th Panzer Division under Von Arnim's 5th Panzer Army. Probably this unit: 10. Motorcycle Battalion- 2 x Motorcycle Company- Half-track Company- Armored Car Company- Heavy Company (mot) ....before they reorganzied & started calling them "aufklarungs abteilung" I guess? Seems to be just after Sidi Bouzid so late on the 15th probably and while the axis command structure was working out what to do and where to go. I know the location. A crossroads. But when it started being called "Kern's Crossroads" I am not sure.... SYNOPSIS: Lieutenant Colonel (Infantry) William Bentley Kern, United States Army, was awarded the Silver Star for conspicuous gallantry and intrepidity in connection with military operations against the enemy as Commanding Officer, 1st Battalion, 6th Infantry Regiment, 1st Armored Division, during World War II. -

I have them and have breezed through them. No paydirt yet. I guess I just need to either go slower and find more details or find new sources. Or do an "Ambrose" and just make up some cool stuff??!!!
