dragonwynn Posted December 8, 2015 Share Posted December 8, 2015 I have been working on a new CMRT Campaign called The Last Panzer. It will depict actions of Panzer Division Muncheberg during April 1945. It is currently about 2/3rds done. It will cover actions in the Kustrin Corridor (4 battles), 2 days of the battle for Seelow Heights (2 battles), actions near the village of Muncheberg ( 1 battle) and 2 or 3 battles with in Berlin itself. All the maps are created by myself with the exception of one which credits will be given at the time of release. It will also feature snow environments using VM's winter mod created a while back, one which I felt was way underused and hope to showcase in this campaign. All mods tagged will be in the download.Some of the core units involved in the campaign are:Germans:Pz Rg 29 MunchebergPzGr Rg 1 MunchebergPzGr Rg 2 Munchebergschwere PzJag Abt 68211th SS PzGr NordPanzer Pioneer KompaniePz Artillerie RgSoviets:47th GD's RD48th GD's RD79th GD's Hvy Tank Rg49th GD's Tank Rg29th Recon Bn50th GD's Hvy Tank Rg1461st SU Rg20th Tank Brg295th RDI have tried to recreate the situation of this time period as accurately as possible using the current tools available in CMRT. It will be mainly a defensive campaign but will also have counterattack operations as well as a few small unit encounters to add variety but still stick to the storyline. The main objective in most of it is to keep as many units intact for the final fights in the defense of Berlin. The final battle will probably be a escape scenario to try and get as many survivors across to the west though I am still working that one out lol. Just designing the Berlin maps will be daunting enough. Hopefully I will be able to finish this project out and when I do I will ask for some playtesting volunteers to give it a run through before release.Anyhow just thought I would put this up to let you know whats in the works. When I can I will post some screenies. Mike 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kohlenklau Posted December 8, 2015 Share Posted December 8, 2015 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. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have been following your work and it looks great. I am so far into this campaign I hate to change it up now plus I do want to show VM's work as I have not seen it in any scenarios thus far. However I am sure your efforts will be put to good use in some later projects. I also have been following your modding tutorial and it is some very good info. I have only done some minor modding myself so hopefully I will maybe learn some skills from your efforts.Thanks againMike Edited December 9, 2015 by dragonwynn 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kohlenklau Posted December 9, 2015 Share Posted December 9, 2015 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! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those look great. Congrats to the " winter" team. I may be able to work some of these in as tags as both of these "babies" are in the campaign. If not they can definately be used for later projects. The time frame depicted in this campaign was just following a brutal winter in Germany and it is just beginning to break into the spring thaw. So as the scenarios move forward I have used VM's winter terrain mod in to depict snow early but less and less as the campaign progresses. I tried to keep it as realistic as possible by adjusting his mod to depict this. Hopefully the players will have at least a feel for what the weather and conditions were during this time frame. We shall see. It may end up being a bust lol.I really like the look of the Panther as it doesnt have the snow cammo which was probably the case at this point in the war as the Germans probably didnt give a rats butt what paint it had as long as it could move and shoot. But the snow picked up on the treads and wheels really looks good. Edited December 16, 2015 by dragonwynn 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dragonwynn Posted December 31, 2015 Author Share Posted December 31, 2015 The campaign is moving into it's final design phase with the second of two Berlin maps being built. I have begun to incorporate some of the Winter mod teams excellent work into the campaign as well. I hope when it's released it will give the player a realistic experience for this stage of the war. The two Berlin maps are not perfect but I did try and model them with old maps as accurate as possible. I had to use eastern Europe architecture due to the limits of the game engine but hopefully it will suffice. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BarbaricCo Posted January 2, 2016 Share Posted January 2, 2016 @dragonwynnLooks great. We already have T34 1942 early and T34-85-1943 whitewashed if You need them.

dragonwynn Posted January 2, 2016 Author Share Posted January 2, 2016 (edited) Thanks guys. The Winter Mod really added alot to the early battles which had snow on the ground from late winter. The campaign time period will run from mid April, 1945 until the final battles in Berlin in May, 1945. Based on photographs during this time period I did not see vehicles with the snow camo so I have held off from using them. The snow on the tracks and wheels would work perfect for those early scenarios though. I have thought about fiddling with that in photoshop but it has taken almost a week to design the second Berlin map so just havent had the time. If any of you guys would like to work on those for me I would be glad to showcase them in the campaign.I need the following vehicles with dusted tracks and wheels and a little mud (lol)GermanTiger 1(mid and late)Tiger 2Panther G (mid and late) Panther A (mid)Mk IV G and Hspw 251(c and d)spw 251/3spw 251/10 and 17spw 251/9Kublel wagonTruck Opel Blitzsdkfz flak 10/5pak 40 75mmstug IIIG midTank Destroyer Nashorn (late)Tank Destroyer JgPz IV (late)Tank Destroyer HertzerRussianT34/85 (early, mid and late)T34/76(1942 ( early and late)IS-1IS-2 (mid and late)Su-85 (late)OT-34 (M1942)ISU-152Truck Gaz MMI use Aris vehicle textures so if you want to use these as a base it may make it a bit easier. I know this is a big list so any help will be appreciated and it would be my honor to include these in the campaign with all credits given their due. Once I finish this last behemoth of a Berlin map I will put the final touches in and hopefully it will be ready to play test.ThanksMike Edited January 2, 2016 by dragonwynn 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dragonwynn Posted January 2, 2016 Author Share Posted January 2, 2016 Big List! Give us a year or so. Lol its all good guys. It was wishful thinking. I will incorporate what I can to show off the excellent work you guys have done. This is a big campaign and hopefully the first of many to show case your mods. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kohlenklau Posted January 2, 2016 Share Posted January 2, 2016 Don't worry Mike. I will take a look and since many vehicle families share the treads and wheels files so maybe the pace will go faster than I suspect.What modtag are we going to use? [may45]? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
