Re: German OOB 16 Corrections/Suggestions

PS

Re: German OOB 16 Corrections/Suggestions

Re: stonne 5/40

Re: pdf encylopedia and more questions

The German army used recon by fire in some instances. Rommel was a big proponent of it, encouraging it during his command of the 'Ghost' division in France '40. From other accounts though it wasn't...

Re: 105mm M2 Sabot

I can't find the reference but didn't the original workers on the OOBs in question for this use the sabot as a stand in for the field expedient of removing/not-installing of the HE fuse to get a...

Re: Baptism of the Black Brigade

Well since it has been added to the game, who should fix the...

Re: Map Size

Re: British Long Compaign help

It sounds like you're on the right track though you might consider adding more ATGs into your force mix.

Re: distance for company CO and the battalion CO

Errm no, unless of course it is my shellfire. I can see we have very different play styles!

Re: distance for company CO and the battalion CO

I'm rather curious that no one has mentioned the A0's role in rallying. I almost always keep a fast vehicle near the AO in order to move him to the 'point of maximum effort' as an additional level...
