Capt. Toleran Posted April 20, 2001 Share Posted April 20, 2001 Does anyone have these books? I'm interested in what equipment different WWII units had as part of their OOB (for both Amis and Axis), and these looked interesting, but pricey. Also, I notice that there are like 5 different ones for Axis, and one out of print one for Amis. Anyone have any opinion on these books? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael Emrys Posted April 21, 2001 Share Posted April 21, 2001 Not sure if I'm familiar with this series. Can you supply more information (author, publisher, date of publication, etc.), or a website? I have the WW II Fact File series by Peter Chamberlain and various co-authors and find it handy. I also have various books describing German or Soviet infantry weapons and tactics, but I fear all of the above are now out of print.

GriffinCheng+ Posted April 21, 2001 Share Posted April 21, 2001 Let me guess: are you talking about "German Order of Battle" series by George F. Nafziger? For German Panzer OOB, many would recommend the two volumes of "Panzertruppen" edited Thomas L. Jentz. Griffin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Babra Posted April 21, 2001 Share Posted April 21, 2001 There is an "Order of Battle" series put out by Osprey, similar in format to their Men-at-Arms titles. I've never actually seen one though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Franko Posted April 21, 2001 Share Posted April 21, 2001 If you ARE referring to the Osprey series, I have them all, and they're well worth the price. Excellent for scenario design. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
