Re: Ossetian War Scenario - Info + Help Request

I thought I'd just give a quick example of how I do research for the ORBAT. For now, I'll just focus on tanks, which was a popular theme early on in the war. As I was watching the war on interfax.ru,...

Re: Ossetian War Scenario - Info + Help Request

Thank you :D

Re: Ossetian War Scenario - Info + Help Request

Re: Ossetian War Scenario - Info + Help Request

That's most likely true, but since we're doing a mini-version of the entire war, I'll give both sides Recon, and let the leaders decide what to do with them. However, I will only give each side a...
