Ivancic1941 - Indeed, s.Pz.Abt.301 (Fkl) was part of a smaller Kampfgruppe from the 9. Panzer-Division.
Both Pershings were from 33rd Armored Regiment, 3rd Armored Division - just different companies: "Fireball" - Co. F and Sgt. Mashlonik - Co. E
Thank you very much Nysa!
I was thinking what map would be nice for Pershing, then I found Elsdorf and fight between Pershing and Tiger-ideal  :D . I just didnt know these little details  8)

Hey thanks. I am just another guy who likes spending (too much) money on books.

Tiger 201 that knocked out "Fireball" and Tiger 211 that was knocked out by Sgt Nicholas Mashlonik’s Pershing, were both from schwere Panzer-Abteilung (Funklenk) 301. These were final production Tiger I handed over by schwere SS-Panzer-Abteilung 503 in October 1944, after finishing the basic training (sSSPA 503 carried on with the Tiger II).  If you are interested about further details, then I'd highly recommend Steven J. Zaloga's booklet "Pershing vs Tiger: Germany 1945".

Trivia bit: Even though the unit had 13-15 Tigers in the inventory (March '45), only handful remained operational (plummeting down to three, all blown up by the crew, 16 April in Sprockhövel)
Woooo didnt expect that  :D Very detailed and informative, thank you!
If you maybe know these things too?
How that schwere abteilung 301 came at Elsdorf? Did they came to support some infantry division there or where they part of 9 Panzer division that was around there?
And: to confirm, Pershings are from 3 Armoured US that atacked Elsdorf?

Seth_Soldier - that is a nice picture of an initial StuG III Ausf G in RAL 7021 and with Winterketten, completed between 12.42-02.43.
This is really impresive how much you know about german vehichles  :D Well done!
How are you with Allied vehichles? Do you maybe know from which units are two Tiger 1 that clashed with two M26 pershing at Elsdorf 2.1945? Im interested because of Pershing

-You can easily stuck beetween static tiger and that barrier. So make more distance between tiger and barrier
- Why non-movable AT gun in russian main base? Germans cant get there even if they want
- I would remove Sdkfz7 with towed Pak40. Towing is not working properly and if you hit something with Pak40 while driving you explode. I would replace it with StukaZuFus

Thats for now

So looking these last 4-5 images, I noticed that German soldiers have big hairs, or should I say, they could have haircut they wanted. Most of them are cut from side and have long on top  ;D
Question: was there any rule in German army about haircuts, or you could cut as you want but in combat you cant do that often?

First: Really nice and detailed map blander! Very good looking and I hope to see minimap soon.  ;)


Quote from: blander on 14-11-2018, 05:11:27
Almost ready to do the final lightmaps. Next step: textures.



Second: Is that some magic code that made towable guns working????  :o
Or is that staged as towing?
Or is towing working less laggy if its driving over good terrain?

Great info radiomesh!!!  :o :o Wow how I missed that error in list. I read it and copied while I just saw 155mm and (f) and taught that is it. Thanks on correction   :)

Quote from: Seth_Soldier on 08-11-2018, 20:11:06
from my point of view, 155 pieces are commander arty.
Those pieces are long range and are not supposed to be present on the map
But why do you need even model when commander arty is not seen on map? Is commander arty coded like spawning bombs in air that rain down or actually gun firing somwhere on secondary terrain? What are guns used for other factions in FH2 for commander arty?

Well they are more strategic and with bigger range. But as Gazala map is super scaled down , it somehow fits the scenario and situation. I think its better to be used by players somewhere than just static on PdH map or as commander arty only. Plus it would look  cool. But its not on me to decide will it be used in map or not.   :D

Nice research! :D our Gazala map is super scaled so it would fit historically as a nice Easter Egg.
BUT
adding it to a map may be more complicated. Idk where the current leFH18 is right now, but if it's got stuff around it (sandbags, walls, etc...) they might have to be move. And if that's the case, moving statics could fuck with the singleplayer navmesh.

About the export, I'm sure Stubb could say more, but if we were to make it a thing I think it would need to be edited properly.
Ahh shit. I dont know also if any statics would be need to move, havent played Gazala long time, but if thats the case its bullshit. Cant believe how much navmesh is shit in BF2 world.
So sole size of gun, as its quite bigger than Lefh,wouldnt break navmesh but if you move static then navmesh is in trouble?

Still hope it works or Stubb manage to bring it to life

Yes gun was used during Battle of Gazala, I found it listed under Rommel HQ but I suppose they were mostly north (Kusten) . Kampfgruppe Menny which had one abteilung was mobile group in Italian corp made from part of 90 leichte Division so I suppose they were closer south to the DAK and main trust.
But as Gazala map in FH2 is scaled from huge terrain and includes both Italian and German, I think its still OK to use it.

OBB Axis- Battle of Gazala
Panzerarmee "Afrika" – Rommel
------523. Kusten Artillerie Abteilung (-) (see KG "Menny") – 8 x 155mm sFH414[f] How.
------528. Kusten Artillerie Abteilung – 12 x 155mm sFH414[f] How.
------529. Kusten Artillerie Abteilung – 12 x 155mm sFH414[f] How.
------532. Kusten Artillerie Abteilung – 12 x 155mm sFH414[f] How.

Corpo di Armata XXI
Kampfgruppe Menny
----3./523. Kusten Artillerie Abteilung - (attached) (see Arko 104.) – 4 x 155mm sFH414[f] How.
----533. Kusten Artillerie Abteilung - (attached) – 12 x 155mm sFH414[f] How.






And to conclude; I think germans used in Africa mostly GPF-T which is actually with pneumatic wheels and some more minor differnces, but I think it doesnt stop this type to be used instead. Its really same caliber and range.

Does it needs to be re-export? This guy made it half worked and said it has everything working... I dont know really

I have one suggestion,
I read that heavy DAK artilery battalion had GPF 155mm mle1917 cannons used in Africa. So can we maybe get one instead of LeFh105 on Gazala? It would be nice to get it there as LeFH doesnt catch all flags and this would (long range cannon) and it has bigger caliber.

Also a nice touch ;)
What do you think about this Jan? Is it worth it?

Pizzaman do you think its maybe this village ? Its conected directly to crossing of Sedan and is very  interesting  battle.

Villers-le-Tilleul
...

Nope, the real village on Google Maps looks exactly like the minimap. No rotations or assumptions needed.

Ooh figured it out, nice battle indeed. Nice guys  :)  Its real FiveStar
What do you think on which % is it finished?

This much %:



Wow really nice village! Could we get one more pic of it or that trenches above village?

Singleplayer and Coop / Re: Singleplayer sniper rifles
« on: 04-11-2018, 22:11:38 »
Sniper rifles could be found as pick-up kits, and its usualy placed in places where you could snipe from; like church towers,etc  :)

Can say one suggestion, instead of Katyusa it would be cool to take M30 122mm and make it mobile . Then infantry can push it around for point blank arty support like in real life. I mean, there is already lot of tanks but thats just instead of Katyusa if you plan to put it.

Or it would be nice for Germans, as their artilery in city did last stand, to place one movable LeFh105 . That would be used to support defense as they dont have much tanks. Disable that look-from-air that arty usualy has so it can just fire at point blank direct fire. And make it from third sector avaible. Take code from Pak or some other movable gun. And as its slow, germans will need to place it clever and retreat when too close to enemy.

Just something I taught as I looked some videos of battle of berlin.
