That last pick were parts for a Mobelwagen, this one here is different as well, but gives you more of a scale.

Cheers

Post Re: Your thoughts on this, gentlemen?

Now thats out of the way, combat, and the results of using this gun on a half-track. All I've ever read is that it was deemed a "it worked well". Seing that the Germans put this same gun on their German h-t's as well, that may be fair to say, but are there any combat reports from crews or commanders on how the vehicle fought? Or anything from the Allies who may have run across these in combat, or the wrecks of them afterwords in the battlefield.

Might the French half-tracks have been better served with using them to compliment the Pz Grenadiers and their quest for more machines to haul around their troops, compared to taking on armour.....?
Just a few questins to ponder on at the moment.

Cheers

Tom

I stopped doing FoW about a year or so, back (Soviet/German forces, Stalingrad only). Not enough game in Albury/Wodonga.

Did they ever end up bringing in aircrafts?

Smile Re: Your thoughts on this, gentlemen?

Sorry to hear that and I do know what you mean there ldt!! I have turned to the net more and more just because of the lack of players in my area as well.....

Cheers, I will try to finally restart my FoW thread in the game forum on the basics, and yes, aircraft are pretty hot and heavy right now, especially if you are playing the Allies in Normandy!
