Here is a strange thing with Karelia 2.1 .pln file. Today i'm downloaded it and install (uninstalled old pugin before it). Founded 85mm ATG's D-48 make me slightly confused

. When i'm trying to start a new campaign, then they appear again Rolling Eyes

Where i'm wrong?

Thanks for corrections!
In this book authors said what 26 gv.ttpp and 27 gv.ttpp were fitted with newly introduced IS-2 tanks. Maybe they wrong - all photos with IS-2 at Karelian isthmus are regarding 27 gv.ttpp only.

This is table of distribution and grouping artillery of 21 Army. Wait a bit, i will translate it for you.
Maybe you need another extraction from the text with the names and equipment of 21 Army units at beginning of operation? I think this will be usefully.

No probs, i have whole book (or magazine? no matter... Smile

) scanned in quite good quality. So if you really need translation, i can made OCR from scans, then using auto-translator program done rough english translation. Furthermore is not so hard to make corrections in text. Just say, what information you need.
I put IS-2 photo, what you requested, here (in max. quality, 684 Kb):

P.S.. I found this great site only couple weeks ago, and now really enjoyed to play some mods. Many thanks for Karelia mod - really greatest stuff : Cool

Don't hear about combat using of Mkb-42 at Eastern front. Is it possible in theory?

Also found additional two shots from mentioned book, both taken at Viipuri (Vyborg)

I found the same photo, but with better quality (from Military chronicle series book "Assaulting on Karelian Wall")
Seems these recons wear some derivative of such summer camouflage dress: http://www.rkka.ru/uniform/files/arm9.htm
