Red Devils Posted August 8, 2000 Share Posted August 8, 2000 I'm sure I'll get fragged for not checking the "search" files well enough, but I have a small wishlist for the Stalingrad battle in CM2. (I would buy the game for this battle alone!) Here they are: Cellars/ basements, sewars, two-man sniper teams (and flame-thrower teams for that matter), historic persons (ie. Zaitsev, Noble Sniper), Stukas (w/ sirens ofcourse), molotov cocktails, and the six-fingered man who killed my father. That should just about do it. Please let me know what I left out! ------------------ I'm sorry, we haven't the facilities to take all of you prisoner. Was there anything else?

Don't know if BTS is taking these kind of requests yet, though. ------------------ "Belly to belly and everything's better" - Russian proverb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mace Posted August 9, 2000 Share Posted August 9, 2000 Any excuse to wax lyrical about the Eastern Front, and CM2, is always justified IMHO! Add: Extensive field works Ski troops and motorised sleds Soviet Marines & Paratroops NKVD (to deal with those retreating Ruskies) Different building sets (including large factories, buildings with 3+ levels) etc Mace Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Forgot about those puppies! Good call. Both sides apparently constucted extensive field works, incorporating buildings, trenches and earthen bunkers. Sure hope that those will be reflected in the game and included in the map editor. BTW, have you read "War of the Rats"? Good semi-nonfictional account of snipers in Stalingrad. A little over dramatic, but good combat. They are making a movie of it right now w/ Jude Law (Talented Mr. Riply) as the soviet sniper Zaitsev and Ed Harris as the german sniper school instructor. Can't wait! ------------------ I'm sorry, we haven't the facilities to take all of you prisoner. Was there anything else? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Herr Oberst Posted August 9, 2000 Share Posted August 9, 2000 Imagine the battle... Pick your side. You get one spotter and one sniper. Last man standing wins... Take forever to play though.... 39 turns of hunt orders, and I haven't seen him yet!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
