It's a tank museum in the town of Kubinka, about 60km outside of Moscow. Going by the website, it looks pretty awesome and has some rare examples in there. This includes the Panzer Mk VIII "Maus" and the "Morser Karl". Would it be possible for one of you highly talented mod-creators out there to include one of these so-called super tanks in any future CC Mod? If anyone has actually been there, was it worth the cost to get there, or is it some sort of "Piss-weak Tank World" type theme park?

the mause was in a CCIII sub mod of WF9.1 called "operation beached whale" it had the massive tank with turrent with 122mm from jagdtiger and a 7.5cmL43 from panzer Mk4.
panther II with 88mm also in the mod. brits have i think from memory comets,and centurians(17lb)mk1.oh and dads army!
That Maus is not from WWII -- none of the Maus prototypes that were built ever saw combat. This fully assembled example (V2 turret mounted on V1 hull) was made by and tested at Kubinka in 1951/52 and can be seen today in the Museum. -- So the Museum made the Tank.

beached whale mod was set as:
in 1943 stalin was killed by german air strike(in reality it neally got him) and the russians lost, then the germans consentrated on england again, and in i think 1944/5 prepared to attack england as the story went...it was a fun little mod. had new maps and all. CoI u can make old plugins to new mod swap(there is a guide written),so maybe new CCV size maps can be added.
its a what if fictional mod, 5 centurians where sent to germany,but none saw combat, some people argue the same for russian JSIII. mause was also made for wwII, but never got even to production.
