And what is this claim that there are large number of russian troops beining trained in the far east? I did not hear that before. Any truth to that? Where are those troops coming from?

So apperently Russia bought 1000 iranian drones. I just hope it won't have a big effect on the war. Nice videos of trenchfighting. Its just not that easy to understand what exactly is happening and who is who. Perhaps someone here likes to do a deeper analysis on what is going on. Does someone know where this is?

Interesting those guys seem to be fighters of the Ukraine Foreign Legion? There is not so much news of them any more.

Whoa. This trench firefight video is really intense. I am glad they didn't get hit near the end. That was a very close call. And watching this video gave me a ww1 feeling.

Was this guy real? I tough he was a legend to bolster morale. I have not seen any videofootage of any dogfight and no reports of any airbattle with the exception of this Ghost of Kyiv. So I asumed the ukrainians tried to avoid direct air encounters and used fighters to screen their ground attack planes. There are lots of information about ground battles but not as much about the air campaign. You only see vids of russian aircraft shot down by groundforces.

This is pure horror. What a ****ty end to a heroic last stand. What a despicable traitor. He fated to death the civilians, there were a lot of children. I have really no idea what is going on in some humans to do such things. I hope he will get what he deserves. Are there still defenders able to fight? This situation is so horrible having no real hope. Surrendering means death, living is hell.

Scholz is a disgrace for germany. Not only was he involved in the biggest corruption scandal (CumEX) in the history of the Federal republic of Germany when he was mayor in Hamburg. There was the Wirecard Scandel too where his actions didn't look good. And when he was finance minister there was a corruption scandal in his ministry, he tried to hinder investigations. He has a socialist past und tried to push Nordstream 2. The only politicians that lie more than him are the russians. I detest him. He is corrupt and dishonest. Even worse: the 100 billion special fund for the Bundeswehr got postponed and it is not sure if it is even coming.

I hope this is true:

It seems that the russians are trying to forcefully mobilise ukrainian men of captured regions into their army. I read about it first a few days ago in the melitopol region and now in the Izyum region. This is barbaric. Forcing them to fight against their own. I can't believe this will help their military it will just increase the bloodshed. Most likley they will be used as canonfooder. It will increase the psychological toll on the ukrainian defenders as well. Its against the geneva convention article 51 too. How desperate must they be?

Here is the video of the russian prisoners being shot in the leg: There is even a longer video of this scene out there but I couldn't find it. It does seem legit though.

If this information is true then it seems the Ukrainian military tries to encircle the russian Army near Khievh. https://twitter.com/TrentTelenko/status/1502090113064521735 P.S. Sorry, I don't know how to embed this tweet in the forum.

This picture is photoshoped. In the original picture there is no swastika. The updated photo was used by russian and "novorussian" propaganda sources. At the moment I'm at work but will try to find the original picture and post it if i find it again. This makes it pretty clear what the posters agenda is. P.S. I couldn't find the foto I seemed to remember.But I found a blogarticle about it stating the flag is fake: http://ukraineatwar.blogspot.de/2014/11/nazis-in-azov-battalion.html This blog is written by an opensource analyst and is highly informative about the war. The photoshopping of nazi-flags into ukrainian pictures is modus operandi to support the russian narrative of a fashist junta in Kiew. I have seen this happen a lot. Yes there are some nazis and right wing groups in ukraine but the russian media does blow it completly out of proportion. By the way in this video a "separatist" commander talks about the battle of Debaltseve and that is wasnot a sucess because of immense losses. Its in russian but it clearly supports Steves analyse of the situation. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vs1pdoGx-SI#t=20

Does a comparable book on german or soviet WWII tactics exist?

Did anybody win the Odon Bridges mission? I find this mission extremly difficult(but I'm just a mediocre player). The first artillery strike did wipe out an important part of my defenders and the germans are just too numerous. Buildings as defensive position are bad. As soon as the enemy is in sight my defenders in buildings are wiped out. I find this mission the most dificult one at the moment....

I'm thinking of buying the Fortress Italy bundle. But I can't find any information on what campaigns are included? For me this is he most important thing. So could somebody inform me what campaigns are included in Fortress Italy and Gustav Line? What formations are you playing in there? Who did create the campaigns?

I did try load the save in between the missions but it does not help.

I don't use any mods. As I said I installed the new module when i played the mission before. So the only way to play it without problems is to restart the campaign?

I just got to the 4th Mission of thed Panzers Marsch campaign. And there seems to be a bug or something really strange. I bought/installed the new Comonwealth modul when i was playing the mission before. So all vehicles, even the panthers start towing a 6 ponder AT gun. But there is absolutly no ammunition for it. If i tell the tank crews to bail out they man the guns. Even most infantry units have those AT guns. Most infantry guys are equipped with bren guns. I really find this strange, is this supposed to be this way? I wanted to do some screens but everytime I hit the print button on keyboard I instead take a screen of my desktop.

I can't post in the Kursk Forum( I don't know why), so I do it here. Hope this is not a problem. I just bought Tow 2 Kursk a week ago and started playing the first german mission, the Kerkasskoe one. I can't seem to finish it. I tried countless times....... One of the biggest problems I have are the enemy aircraft and they hit hard, they kill my artillery and sometimes the tanks. Hiding in the forrest doesn't help. So I bought 2 37mm sdkfz AA vehicles, put Soldiers with gunnery >70 in there. But yeah they really don't help. I tried more then 30 times. They did not shoot 1!! plane. And they get targeted first and die fast.....this is really frustrating. I have no idea what I'm doing wrong. It seems impossible to counter the planes. I could try 4 AA vehicles, but.... How do you fight enemy aircraft? Any tipps?
