Holman Posted March 30, 2004 Share Posted March 30, 2004 It seems that British Paras are even harder to find in CMAK than American Airborne! Can someone tell me when and where they are available? Also, are there any major differences between the TO&E for British Airborne in CMAK and the Red Devils at the time of Market-Garden? You can guess where this is going: I'm thinking of trying my hand at some Arnheim scenarios for CMAK. Thanks. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kingfish Posted March 30, 2004 Share Posted March 30, 2004 They were involved in the battle for Primasole bridge in Sicily, as well as the capture of Taranto in Italy. Try the time period July - Sept '43. IIRC, there was also a battalion sized drop in Tunisia sometime in Nov / Dec. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Holman Posted March 30, 2004 Author Share Posted March 30, 2004 Thank you! Yes, they're in Italy in September 43. You can get PIATs later, but they won't be Airborne teams. Now, can someone tell me offhand if the platoon TO&E changed between late 43 and late 44, aside from replacing AT guns with PIATs? 1943 airborne squads have one Bren. Did they get two later? <off to research!> 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
guachi Posted March 31, 2004 Share Posted March 31, 2004 British Airborne and Glider squads in CMBO only have 1 Bren. But they do have bunches of SMGs though. Jason 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
