<t>Experience tells, the 1st "Big Red One" probably had as much or more than any other US division. Also don't forget Omaha beach, it was there that the 1st and 29th showed what they were made of.<br/>
<br/>
As to the 1SSF, it was more a brigade sized unit. Made up of 2 regiments with 2 battalions ...

<r>The book 13Z mentioned is a part of the War Department's "green" book series. There are 30-40 books in the series. Most larger libraries in the US have a set in the reference section.<br/>
<br/>
You can find a complete list of the books and a short synopsis of each at the Center for Military ...

<t>The German para's were in 2 or 3 gliders. After they rescued El Duce a Storch landed to take him out. Accounts state that Skorzeny was able to squeeze into the same plane and it was just barely able to fly out with a pilot and 2 passengers. Taking off from a high altitude like that you lose a lot ...

<t>There was some discussion earlier about not getting full points for abandoned vehicles. I think 5.0 is supposed to address this.<br/>
<br/>
You can still move an infantry unit into that hex, using the SHIFT click, and eventually they will destroy the vehicle.<br/>
<br/>
You know how us infantry ...

<t>I haven't had problems moving into the same hex as enemy vehicles in the past.<br/>
<br/>
Did you kill it or make the crew bail? If the vehicle was not destroyed you have to hit the SHIFT key when you select the hex to move into.<br/>
<br/>
I may be wrong but I don't think there is a "stacking ...

You may want to try - "A Simple Command" It's fairly small and a straight forward infantry fight. Also look at "King of the Hill" It's an infantry company with attached tanks.

<t>According to "The Encyclopedia of German Tanks of WW2" by Thomas L. Jentz the date is when they entered combat.<br/>
<br/>
"Combat Service: The first unit to be equipped with Tigers was the 1st Platoon of the 502nd schwere Panzerabteilung which was hurriedly assembled and rushed to the Leningrad ...

<t>It could be an interesting "what if" scenario. What if Hitler had not invaded Russia but concentrated the German forces on defeating England?<br/>
<br/>
Some people like these type of scenarios, but it would take a good bit of work to come up with order-of-battle and maps.<br/>
<br/>
Check out ...

<t>If its not happening all the time you may want to make sure all other processes are stopped (Windows sometimes will get bogged down during multi-tasking). All you need running is Explorer ans systray.<br/>

Also check you virtual memory settings. I have mine at 300 mb on a K6-2 475, with 128 ...

<t>I believe the explosive C-4 was formulated late in WW2 and is still in use today, also TNT has been around since the 1800's and has not changed.<br/>
<br/>
We can't forget napalm (basicly gasoline with with ingredients to make is stick to anything it touches). We also get one of our most famous ...

Should be on the way now. I sent all 3 scenario files in scen70.zip

<t>Ahh yes, tactical intelligence. How did another comedian put it? "It describes more of what we are seeking than what we possess."<br/>
<br/>
It would be nice if the scenario designers could include this as part of their introduction. A quick blurb about the composition of the forces we will face ...

<t>An M4 Sherman eases slowly along the trail looking for targets,<br/>
Commander:"Driver, halt" "Gunner, VISA card, there is a CD-ROM coming out of that village ahead!"<br/>

Commander: "Wait for it..., its easing out slowly...."<br ...

I found the book "Storming Eagles" by James Lucas gives a lot of insight into the German development of their parachute troops and operations. It has a lot of info on Crete.
