Thanks Sven!

Firing tables are used to determine the correct elevation for the guns to achieve a given range using a specific charge. They often take into account other factors like charge temperature, altitude differences between the guns and the target (called 'non-rigidity' in technical language), bore wear i...

The badge seems to have been a comet and tail (from http://www.eagle19.freeserve.co.uk/): http://www.eagle19.freeserve.co.uk/blaukomet.jpe Note that none of the photos I've seen of these guys in action showed any badges other than the Fallschirmtruppe eagle on the right breast. From Nasse's Fallschi...

The NbW 35 isn't the same as the various rocket Nebelwerfer that later became famous as the 'screaming meanies' - it's just a scaled-up version of the 8cm sGrW 34, used primarily to fire smoke ammunition. http://www.lexikon-der-wehrmacht.de/Waffen/Bilderseitenneu/10-cmNebelwerfer35.htm The Wehrmacht...

I don't believe so, I've found no pictures of it nor specific references in text. There are plenty of pictures of Ju-52s being loaded for Crete with a Pak 35/36 slung between the wheels, and of course pictures of the FJ and LLStR chaps using them on the island. I should think if a more powerful (and...

It is hard to be certain but the following equipment I am pretty confident was used on Crete by the Fallschirmjaeger: 3.7cm Pak. 35/36 AT gun 8cm sGrW. 34 mortar 2cm Flak. 38 (in Fallsch.Flak.MG-Btl. 7) 7.5cm lG. 40 recoilless gun (in Fallsch.Art.Abt. 7) 7.5cm Geb.G. 36 mountain gun SdKfz. 2 half-tr...

I've been trying to find information on how these units resupplied themselves in action but have not had any luck. None of the orbats I've been able to locate (primarily those of Dr. Niehorster but also those contained in Nasse, "Fallschirmjäger in Crete") have mentioned any supply troops ...

A release date hasn't been determined yet. Basically we'll only release it when it's ready, which is always hard to predict :? A game using this engine is already available, it's called Airborne Assault: Highway to the Reich , and you can see screenshots of that, get more information, and even order...

This shot, from a couple of hours later, shows what I mean when I say the battle is far from over: http://www.matrixgames.com/forums/upfiles/8865/Rp446307355.gif Notes: [/u] 1. This shot shows a handy interface feature - you can toggle the icons to a smaller size to make the map easier to read. 2. T...

I wanted to post this one because I think it's cool :cool:. This is a what-if scenario from the game I'm working on, Airborne Assault: Conquest of the Aegean , which is a pausable-continuous-time operational simulation of the campaign in Greece in 1940 and 1941. There are some links to further infor...

The Invasion '44: Fields of Glory mod for Operation Flashpoint is a pretty nifty WWII conversion. Comes with a neat little mini-campaign where you play an American para dropping over Sicily in '43. The missions that come with the mod are all from the US POV but you could easily write your own from t...
