Pzman Posted June 19, 2003 Share Posted June 19, 2003 Updated, new pictures and information posted. (July 17, 2003) I am happy to anounce that the Combat Scenario Design team is working on a series of battles dealing the battle for Seelow Heights. The pack covers battles from first Russian attackes on Reitwein Spur in February 1945 through April 1945 when they pushed their way over Seelow heights and towards Berlin, only 60 miles away. Scenario desigers are, Rob "Panzerman" Disney, Tom 'Warmonger" Grace and Steve "The Mad Russian" Overton. The pack will include over ten battles covering fanatic German defence and massive Russian attacks. For full preview click on the link below.

MikeyD Posted June 19, 2003 Share Posted June 19, 2003 Hey dude, Remote link forbidden! Reminds me of the line "No good deed goes unpunished". The battle pack sounds great, though I don't know what it looks like! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lindan Posted June 20, 2003 Share Posted June 20, 2003 Seelow Heights has been covered for a while by Warpheads excellent operation (available at Boots&Tracks if I'm not mistaken) Can you say something about the differences between the Operation and your battle pack? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Uh, one of the designers was decked out in full Goth gear and listening to Ministry when he designed it. He also had a rabbit sitting on his lap, pissed off and showing his teeth. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UPCdave Posted June 20, 2003 Share Posted June 20, 2003 Hahahaha, yep, sounds like Patrick alright;) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pzman Posted June 20, 2003 Author Share Posted June 20, 2003 The battle took place over a large area, a little hard to cover in just one operation. Although I have not played the operation in question the scale is a little different. We aren't just coving one part of the battle for Seelow Heights, but battles that tooks place over a period of three months... a little hard to do in one operation. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

von Paulus Posted July 17, 2003 Share Posted July 17, 2003 Damn ... Stalingrad, Kursk, and now Seelow, the most mythical battles places of the East Front ... Once and again and impressive work just for the CM community ! Thanks much Paulus 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pzman Posted July 18, 2003 Author Share Posted July 18, 2003 Thanks Paulus. If everything goes well it will be out in two weeks; which is what I am aiming for. Studing these battles has been interesting for sure. A lot of crazy things happened around and on the Heights... Stalin wanted things done quickly, either that or someones head was going to roll. We have enjoyed studing and making the battles so I hope that everyone enjoys playing them. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stavka_lite Posted July 18, 2003 Share Posted July 18, 2003 After you finish with that how about something from Kiev or Smolensk????? PLEAEEEEEESSSSSSE! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pzman Posted July 18, 2003 Author Share Posted July 18, 2003 I can look into it and ask the other members of the team; although I am not sure if we will do another pack for a while. A few of us were working on battles around Kursk before, but B&T has a pack on that, although they have covered different battles, I'm not sure if we will finish those now. We were working on some of those nice big tank battles that some people like. Anyway I will ask the others and see if we can do Kiev or Smolensk. I assume you mean during the German advance in 1941.

Stavka_lite Posted July 18, 2003 Share Posted July 18, 2003 Thanks Panzerman!!!!! Yes, I was refering to '41. Should you and your team find the time I am sure they will be doosies<G> 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
von Paulus Posted July 18, 2003 Share Posted July 18, 2003 I approve Stavka for a new pack covering a battle that occured in 41 (especially before the snows) Paulus PS : B&T Can also work on such a theme ... but it would be better to communicate between CSDT and B&T so you'll don't do the same project. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pzman Posted July 18, 2003 Author Share Posted July 18, 2003 That would be a good idea Paulus. We might end up coving a some battles from June 41 and October 41; but again I'll have to talk to the other members. I'll contact the group and get back to you shortly. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pzman Posted July 22, 2003 Author Share Posted July 22, 2003 I have talked to the others and they like the idea of doing a bunch of scenarios covering 41, so there you go. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
