There are some wartime German-language films ...

<t> I think this is one of the most sensible postings I've seen in a long time. I drafted my own less sympathetic response to the original post yesterday, but then thought better of sending it. <br/>

At the risk of being controversial, look at the reasons for the 11th September outrage and ...

<t> I can't disagree with anything you've said. <br/>

The British revamp, retitled For King and Country {uugh! I an a fervernt anti-monarchist] has some new data in it thanks to some recent research by self and others, but to include some old boards that most peoiple already have, and a lot ...

<t> As someone involved in the historical research for Armies of Oblivion, among others, I have to say that the prices would be even higher if MMP had to pay a fair market price for the research work done by myself and others - we do it on the cheap (free copyof the game, and nothing else - not even ...

Can anything be done to represent the different turret traverse rates of the tanks in the simulation, to better represent their real-life capabilities? Data can be supplied for this if you need it ...

Sorry Eric, misread your note! Mea culpa.

<t>Fabio is right about Hitler's value as an ally; all attempts by other Axis allies like Romania and Hungary to build vehicles like the Panthers under licence failed because Germany insisted on charging a very high price to do so, and Japan would have been no exception. So much for Axis solidarity ...

There were no long-barelled StuG III's in the desert war apart from a battery of six sent to Tunisia late in the fighting; I am getting bored of fighting these ahistorical phantoms. Only three short-barelled StuG IIs were sent to ...
