CMFB release maybe waiting on "Art"....?

FYI. Chappy's "charge of the light brigade" with those 2 tanks was meant to coincide with an RAF Typhoon attack (2 planes) but something went odd with the arrival of the planes.

Hey Sam. How goes the college life? Have a good holiday break! PM me if you want to test drive the mod.

Mark, Your annotated screenshot of wounds to Detmer's Jagd said PIAT. Nope. It was this bugger...!

We interrupt this AAR for another short lesson from... The T-34 is riding over Triticum Kohlenklauscum. T. Kohlenklauscum is resistant to most blight and fungi as well as HE, AP and springs back very quickly after a tank rolls over it. It makes an excellent vodka.

Bird grog! OK, Harry, remind me later and we will put you on the sound mod team with Waclaw to have the proper Siberian red feathered tit mouse chirping in the background... then the sound of a shotgun blast and a squawk? Or perhaps the Norwegian Blue?

Harry. I will PM you with the link to download all the current folders. Paste them in your CMRT Mods folder. There is also a small teaser battle. And a snow.txt mod tag file so you can import and make your own winter map designs (gluten-free?)! Standby sir.

I love the new CMRT Winter Mod logo that Barbaric made. I gotta paypal him a little gift for his holiday merriment... I think we make a great team and I appreciate the efforts he has done to improve the project.

Harry the wheat grog! I think we can get you off our backs by just using the tall yellow grass. OK? This is called getting wrapped around the axle.

The CMRT Winter Mod is expandable and collapsible and very flexible to the looks you personally desire to see. I am Barbaric's opponent and used some different files. I had gloves on his Soviet troops, helmets were green. Barbaric said he used umlaut's frosted axis greatcoats for my defenders, which should show soon in his continuing AAR. Maybe it is rye grown as a winter cover crop for advanced Soviet agricultural thinking? Definitely the map making process should be carefully done to optimize the Winter Mod visual result. Most of what you see is exactly what came from CMFI GL so the winter look there is not much different. Barbaric did some original mods such as frosting up the haystacks and some bark on the trees. I have just done a Beutepanzer T-34 with German markings that plays in game against the actual Soviet T-34's. This Winter Mod has great potential and I encourage everyone to PM me so they can download the current packs and have some first hand stick time.

OCOKA TERRAIN ANALYSIS? Maybe we should call you "Barbaric Bil" Screenshots look great, makes me want to have hot cabbage soup and some vodka. Are these screenshots you took during our battle or you are watching the saved turns and taking them fresh?

No worry.

Hola Boce, I see just now on your website which you just advertised on all main forums the very large Ortona map that benpark did several years ago and funny coincidence but just a few days ago I noticed you on FGM seemed to have just discovered that map even existed and asked in their PBEM opponent finder forum for a H2H battle and now you have put your name alongside benpark's as the map creator. Then you say "You ONLY can find them HERE". Maybe you contacted him for permission? benpark is a very nice guy and I am pretty sure he is happy to have the map altered and used rather than gather dust. I will let you off with a warning this time but if I ever see you cruising around the forum back alleys peddling counterfeit maps again, you are going to have to make me a winter Ost Front map as a fine! OK, I was half joking. Welcome amigo, keep making great original maps and best wishes to you!

We got logistics comin' out our ears...What we need is some fightin' spirit! OK Bud, that is enough of this pretend stuff. Please show us some fire power!

Oh the weather outside is frightful but this T-34 on our side is so delightful...

This was a fun little exercise...

We're half way there... Come on, what are you waiting for? POST ME!!!

No problem at all Mike. I already have several scenarios in the works by myself and a few other guys to show the mod. Thanks for the kind words and best wishes to you in your project!

Sounds great Mike (it was Mike, uhh, right?). We need more guys like you. Report to the clinic for cloning! Funny you mention the Winter Mod. I am taking that from ground zero to an advanced level with expanded winter terrain, winter uniforms and whitewashed vehicles/guns for both sides. If you don't need all that, or just stay with VM's stuff, I understand. But just let me know if you are interested and we can PM back and forth.

Long story short...the kubelwagen I used for that snow camo was a bmp from CMFI and I noticed just now it was only 1012 x 506 and the one I used for a kubelwagen mod in CMBN was 2024 x 1012. LIke 4 times as big. Wow. It is hard to put a tiny symbol on an image that is already small. So I went back to the larger kubelwagen bmp as the base layer. The symbols look good, I just have to now redo the whitewash.

I will explain later...
