Just one question, I see that your Tommies are using what looks like a panzerfaust. Weren't the brits using the Piat at Remegan.

P.S. I may have some of the above wrong, I just got home and have been working ten hour night-shifts lately.

Yeah Jimmy, the Brits used PIATs. Now I updated the units.gif and I´ll post them now. IMO the combat units are finished, the empty space at the bottom is for the Bridges.

ps: Jimmy, may I ask you to do me a favor: Would you be so kind to improve my SdKfz 234/2 Puma (the 2nd unit in the 4th row) for good?

Jim Panse, lose the churchill tank - Brit armoured divisions didn't use them. You could maybe replace it with a Household Cavalry Regiment armoured car (Daimler or Humber if there is a graphic available), as they played a key part in linking up with the Polish airborne Brigade on the Island south of Oosterbeek.

I am pretty sure I have seen one of those somewhere in the threads. I now know my mission and will begin my quest. (Oh my freaking god! What a geek am I)

You could simply edit the previous post instead of re-posting.


BTW how goes your Sevastopol scenario?

I did not have time for playtesting yours these days, sorry..

I posted my attempt in the ww2-unit thread. Here you can see it again.

Good luck for your scenario, I´m looking forward.

Jim, nice indeed!
Love the camo Panzers!
This scenario is looking more awesome by the day!

PS
Any chance of using the tiger?

@Daily Danger: Thanks for your work. I never got that close to the Daimler.

Quote:

@Curt Sibling: Thanks but I just adapted the one from your King Tiger ... You will see more of it. I´m planning to do the same camo for all tanks, the same camo as on your Panzergrenadier unit from Dictator II for the SdKfz-like units and "your" 8,8cm FlaK camo for the artillery pieces. Due to the Allied Air Superiority this has been necessary .... I think.

@Curt Sibling: Please, feel free to use . If you wait a few days more you may get even more camo stuff.

Jim, thanks, dude!

Seeing the panzers in that camo will be solid!

I will eagerly wait and see what develops from the Panzer respray garage!

Wow! - this really is looking fantastic

BTW, are you sure that the Germans used Tiger II tanks during Market-Garden? I think that I've read that they were only occasionly used on the Western Front (or maybe I'm thinking of the Jagedtiger)

The Jagdtiger wasn't used at Arnhem. It was only used by 2 units, 653 tank hunter battalion and 512 heavy panzer batallion. I think it saw it's first combat in the Ardennes, but I'm not 100% sure.

The Konigstiger replaced Tiger VIEs in some of the heavy panzer battalions from June 44 onwards, and first saw action on the Eastern Front and against the Brits in Normandy. Not sure if any were at Arnhem, but certainly elements of one heavy panzer battalion (ie Tigers) were brought into the fighting as reinforcements

I´m tossing around ideas for improving the units. Shall I replace some of the shields of the German Tanks???

Maybe the German Balkenkreuz for the tank units???
