RE: artillery

<t> I think if you check through the web you will find the division had major problems and was disbanded. Nevertheless Fall of 44 Germans were organizing Volks Artillery Corps and Volks Werfer Brigades. Attaching these would be immensely easier than the five and six battalions respectively these ...

RE: Later campaigns against the AI?

<t> Can tell you about playing Germans in the 43 Campaign game.<br/>

My thinking is although there is some potential in sliding the panzer formations over to weaker portions of the line and then attack, I believe the strategic situation calls for something very different. So I edited the ...

1. When you are playing FOW the picture is not close to what the combatants Army Groups and Theater HQ's had in front of the them - the look and feel is wrong.<br/>

2. No operational or strategic WWII game is realistic unless the ...

RE: German Construction Bn's

I have to admit I skimmed some parts of the rules and find out later I missed an important rule. So I am not remembering anything but RR repair. I think they still help with fortresses too.
