John,

I too think that the problem lies in our differing definitions of what an "official" designation is.

<HR></BLOCKQUOTE>

Agreed

<BLOCKQUOTE>quote:</font><HR>

That is, my definition-encompassed volume is more extensive than yours, and it includes army reports etc. as being "official".

<HR></BLOCKQUOTE>

yes use of the broad definition supports your stance that the sugestive or more common title is applicable as an official designation biggrin.gif, because it was more commonly used in your opinion then say Panzerkampfwagen VI Tiger 8.8 cm Sd.Kfz.182 Ausf.B.

In the case of accepting the broader critera for your definition we, would both be wrong smile.gif as looking at strength returns & how the tanks were identified, the identification columns for the Tiger E & Tiger B are are not identified by type but listed as a whole as PzVI biggrin.gif.

On that note one could say the "official" designation of the Tiger B could also be "PzVI" because its used more regurly in the strength returns compared, to Königstiger etc.

Yet all the Tiger Ausf B training manuals, tech data etc use the "offiocial designation of Panzerkampfwagen VI Tiger 8.8 cm Sd.Kfz.182 Ausf.B

LOL I'd use the official one just to egg you on biggrin.gif..

Regards, John Waters

Must admit, that I feel honoured, that Tom used the "La Gleize" background.

Speaking of La Gleize, the actual Tiger II (Königstiger (sd. Kfz. 182) nbr. 213 of Cdt. Dollingen, defending the farm of Werbemont, is standing now in commemoration of the battle on the market square of the village.

I have been looking in Madmatt's mods depot, but could not find a look-a-like camouflage pattern. Are there any mod specialists able to make one...It would make the scenario all together more enjoyable. Thanks

Hey John, Hof

I've got a great idea - from now on lets call em...

Tiger I

....now know as Zee flipin flopin big tank with zee flipin flocken big gun (FFBTZFFBG); and

Tiger II

...now known as Zee bigin dan zee flipin flopin big tank with zee even bigger flipin flocken big gun (ZBDFFBTZEBFFBG).

There that should make it lots easier biggrin.gif

Cheers Lads

Has anyone else noticed how cool the HVSS shermans look? Anyway, they look scary with those big tracks. I think a big shot from the same aspect as the Tiger II cover would look even more impressive. Very nice artwork on the cd cover and intro screen btw Tom.

Tom: I'll be sending you a scenario shortly once I work the last major bugs out. Hopefully it will be good enough to warrant posting on your side. The San Marino scenario is awesome...a map makes the scenario and it's a great map.
