I also really liked this site. Here's a link to another site I enjoyed looking at and may have particular relevance to mod makers http://www.channel4.com/history/microsites/W/ww2weapons/
I never knew the HT pazerjager teams in the BoB mod were hitler youth! It would be great if they had modded in the bicycles too.

As an afterthought, is that a picture of you or somebody else Antifa? I hope you'll forgive me if I sound chauvanistic but I've never met a lovely girl with a keen interest in wargames and their technical workings. If that's the case then the world is a better place because of it.

I had to ask Smile

I had an unusual battle where the Russian AI had selected to have no less than 5 AT guns. It done this after I had killed all of it's command units. I hatched a plan where my infantry was in the second line of buildings with MG34s covering the front and no less than 4 8cm granatenwerfers in the rear. I thought my mortars would make mince of the gun crews in no time and I could bring my infantry forward. I gaped in amazement as countless mortar shells burst directly on the crews heads with absolutely no effect. Shocked

In reality those guys would be so much strawberry jam.
My own German AT crews can even (rarely) be killed by small arms fire from the front and they live in fear of Russian mortars even when in excellent cover.
Is this a fault with the game data? Or a result of the vetmod? Do AT guns have top armour? Please fill me in.

I've got a beast of a captured PanzerKampferwagon T-60 743(r). I'm not sure about the medals so I'll just describe them. No tank or arty kills, yet... Very Happy

Weber: 125 kills 12 acts of bravery
1 bronze oval thingie
2 black cross w. red bit
2 plain black cross
2 silver cross w. red bit
Issertz: 12 kills w. 1 bravery
silver oval thingie

And it's only the 16th so to infinity and beyond if they don't get killed first. I'd be heartbroken if they did too, there almost like personal friends by now. I'll post again with the conclusion.

I noticed the same problem. Two pioneer units and one pazerjager done absolutely nothing. Then the swine rolled through a minefield without losing thier tracks Shocked

. Perhaps panzerjager teams should have a wee bit more ammo so tha once you've got inside a tanks dead zone you can exploit your situation a bit more.

And all this talk of truth and censorship. Jesus people, how much of what you read in the newspapers and see on tv do you think is true.
If you're American then your media is probably just as full of crap as it was in Stalin's Russia. And the Brittish news isn't much better. The only truth we hear is always 50 years old.
To prove this just try watching the news or reading the papers from 3 different countries and look at the differences.
Moreover what we hear is always tainted by opinion. Our media tells us what to feel about the information they just gave us.
And I'm sick of this hollywood idea that America is the "good guys" If I was to list Americas atrocitys for just the last ten years I'd probably fill a library. You guys get round international treatys on human rights by setting up "torture camps" in other countries. The human rights violations in guantanamo bay are the tip of the iceberg. The CIA have funded just about every fascist dictator around at one time or another. And when Saddam Hussain fired gas shells at Kurdish civilians who do you think sold him the gas? America of course silly.
WAKE UP

Ernie you truly are a product of the modern age. You're views are as idealist as they are zealously excliamed. The running of any state on this planet requires suffering of some kind. You only have to look at Iraq and the countless innocent women and children killed in you're name so that you can drive a big shiney SUV filled with blood tainted petroleum. Or the pregnant women and children force fed meth-amphetimine in the sweat shops so you can have your designer clothes. The only difference today is the distance between our noses and our s**t.
I'm not defending Stalin who was a horrible bastard make no mistake. But to run a large and culturally diverse state requires brutality. Even if we wished it wasn't modern day China is run in much the same way. Our leaders have no problem dealing with them or even giving them the olympics.
And why are you so angry about the atrocitys commited on Russian people when in your opening statement you say you don't care about them or what they have to say.
Ernie you are a windbag, empty but for lots of hot air.
Perhaps you would like to settle this matter like men on the battlefields of Stalingrad? Bitch!

Air strikes have brought me mixed results. I've seen them take out two tanks and a bunch of infantry. On the other hand I've had them miss a cluster of 5 heavy tanks and take out nothing but my nearby granatenbusch just as it's aiming at the rear of an enemy tank.

The stuGs low profile also make it more difficult to nail it good and proper.
My bother has been with the russian medium tanks. My tank leader (panzer IIIj) landing no less than twenty AP shells on a T34 (or was it 37 I can't remember the numbers) and only got nailed its self. On another occasion my medium paK completely unloaded at under 100m and still didn't take down its mark. AAAAAARGH

I was thinking about making this mod myself (once I spent a year learning how and assembling a team).

If you haven't already done so may I reccomend getting some old ordinance survey maps from the library to help in your mapmaking. These were done to great detail around the time of the war and were made for just such an occasion as operation sealion.

I had a sneaky suspicion socrates wasn't as peaceful as his white toga suggested but I knew for sure Plato had a wee hobbie of making and using war machines including a giant magnifying glass to burn Roman ships (he must have played with ants as a boy). So I picked this.
I mean when you think of Plato you imagine him asking people awkward questions or sitting in deep thought. Not caving in peoples heads with a sword.

Although I've never used one as I always have force strength on "vet" those churchill crocodiles are great. The thought of infantry fleeing in terror or on fire makes me smile (sadistically). And those spigot mortars are devistating.

The download works fine. Tanks for all the excellent vetmods. I'm looking to make my own just as soon as I work out how to use Qclone. If anybody knows where I can find a manual I'd be very grateful.

A much easier way to install would be to simply use the config manager you used to install GJS itself. The vetmod is installed in exactly the same way and just as easily removed

I don't like to let AI see all. I'm pretty sure it comes as standard with the battle of Berlin vetmod (the best for single player) and the clairvoiant tanks that shoot you're ambushing 88's down some obscure line of fire that you didn't see even though you just spent 15 mins working out the best place for it. Confused

. No, stick to normal play with a good old vetmod. Thinking of vetmods, is there one for GJS?

After an hour of confusion and reading the forums I realised that the german vetmod is labelled as making it harder to play as the russians in downloads. If somebody could please fix that then I might save others this confusion. thanks

Yeah I've noticed. I think it's due to larger squad size. They fit inside buildings with enough space. I really don't get that mod. If it's supposed to make it harder for the russians then why do they have larger, tougher units? I played the first map and if the aggressiveness is increased then why did I just wipe the floor with the germans using one light tank and two mortars? (I didn't get a single casualty) Razz

They just sat about taking a kicking. I'm gonna try to find out a bit.
