There is no such thing as a historically accurate strategy game. Every game stops being historically accurate from the very first move player do. First unit that moves ahistorically, first battle with non-historical results, mean we ride in unknown.

Wow, I have seen some still photos and short clips from that film but never put together as a whole. Seeing that little Hetzer or JgpzIV rumble by out of nowhere was quite a shock. If you ever wonder what they sound like running, sound was there too. Very interesting film. Thanks!

Watching that little Hetzer/JgPz maneuver off road into the field, you could imagine the disadvantage of the turretless gun. If you wanted to get on target, you had to adjust the whole vehicle rather than just rotate the turret. Anybody know what that vehicle was?

At 15:58 in video it looks like an American riding in a German half-track. Got to look quick.

When it drove by it looked kind of small. But as it left the road into the field, it looked bigger.
