<r> Hi, I run the Crusader Project. <br/> <br/> I wouldn't trust Bayerlein further than I can throw The Rommel Papers. Kriebel is a very good source on the battle from the German side, and available in English. He was the Ia in 15th Panzer during the battle.<br/> <br/> <URL url="http://www.amazon.co...

I fully agree with Laryngoscope and Kip, for what it's worth, while patiently awaiting the&nbsp;Mac conversion. [:'(]

Thanks for the screenshots Erik. Nice to be able to see elevations. Looks good.

Now go and do a Mac version. [:'(]

<t> Thanks for providing screenshots with elevation differences Erik. I have to agree with Thomm that at the moment it looks as if elevation levels are going to be difficult to see, and also as if one may end up being snow-blind after looking at the screen for a while.

He is more objective than Panzer Meyer?

Never read Panzermeier, so I can not compare.

So, what is the relevance of this map here? Does PC use shading? If so I have not seen it in the screenshots, which currenly look like a white table-top with few if any distinguishing features.

Whose grass mod are you using?

And is that a screenshot from Panzer Command?

Andreas

Read what I write and respond to that. Not to what you think I wrote. There is a difference.

Thanks for the time taken to provide the explanations Erik. I would still like to see some Balka screenshots though.

All the best

Andreas

Nice. Where are the Balkas, and are you going to use some help to make it easier to judge height-lines in snow? That was a nightmare in CM out of the box, and could be fixed by modding. I hope you get it right first time round.

If I understand Erik correctly the d10 roll is only for the hit location, not the hit probability. Although what can actually be hit should of course be dependent on the direction of the shot, relative to the target.

Almost. Knapp daneben ist auch vorbei. [:)]

I blame it on the cunning camouflage.

<t> I am 90% certain it is a IV (check the driver compartment and the gun mantle), but it could of course be a IVD or whatever the last version with the 75L24 was. Those would still have been around.<br/> <br/> Then again, maybe I am just having exaggerated expectations when it comes to exact repres...

Still a very flat landscape.
