abuhabib Posted June 14, 2002 Share Posted June 14, 2002 The scenario has the Germans advancing with a company towards the hill top with the paratroopers defending a tree line down slope from the crest just my 2 cents worth, wouldn't it have been the better strategy to defend from the hill top itself? rather than wait for the germans to 'go over the top'?

Ever scene what happens to a bunch of hamstertruppen who engage a dug-in line of US Paras on a reverse slope? Not pretty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wilson Posted September 12, 2002 Share Posted September 12, 2002 As for the tanks that were shown in that episode of Band of Brothers after Easy company had taken Carentan, go to the HBO Band of Brothers website. There you can play a small realplayer video about how they made the tanks. They talk about how they used a T-34 chassis for the Tiger (which was also used in SPR). Also, I think the guy in the rp video says there was a Stug and a Panzerkampfwagen 5? What exactly was that tank, it looked from the gun flange to be a Jagdpanzer to me.
