War Diary, Battle of El Arish Over

The Canadian force finally gave up their advance and withdrew. Several more CAS Airstrikes occured before the cessation of the engagement. These caused more damage which amounted to 57 wounded, a Panther and a Rommel destroyed, well as some minor damage.

Div and even AG HQ are pleased.

I received a personal BefhelsRommel. C Kp began to receive the Cheetahs promised, with the delivery of two, which replaced their HQ units. D Kp replaced it's AAA with the new Stahlwind. The visiting Hubz Gp has been seconded to our KG, giving us an attached Sqdrn of Angriff Hubz. Our Arty Bn's Ammo Carriers finally showed up as well.

As for future Ops, a sweep to SUEZ Canal is in the works, and within 3 days we will be moving out to our pre-assault positions.

SITREP Fr 15th Pz Div

17 Oct 1945

Allied mechanized forces have been noted moving in some force out of the Suez area into the Sinai. This appears to be an attempt dwarf our assault on the canal. Unit in the AG vanguard are to close and engage these forces and eliminate the risk of mobile forces marauding around our pre-attack laager areas.


Likely KG assault sector at ISMAILIA

You know you can up-date those Tiger III icons of yours and Oragus has produced a shed load of Panthers which would look very good in there too. His Panther Fs and IIs are very good indeed. What year have you reached?

Give 'em Hell PanzerBob!

The map's, your sitrep's and everything else is way above par. I can smell the fumes and choke on the dust.

I'm like a kid in a candy store with your AAR's. I just can't get enough!

I have all the latest updates and new products and will incorparate them into my game once this campaign plays out.

Also there are other panzers coming down the AH pipe, in this timeline.

My end result is to have all the elements produced and playtested to create an alternate history campaign. I figure after a couple campaigns using serveral ideas I have, (one of which I'm campaigning now) I'll have all the equipment, units, maps and storylines ready to cobble together this campaign. Of course, this will not occur overnight, and the next upgrade in in the works. I'm committed to this, I want to give something back to the game.

That being said I'm also open to advice, especially if something seems really out of wack. (Bear in mind this is a What If.) I've already used ideas imparted to me and of course last and not least the ICON Art to bring to life those beasties which only crawled the battlefield in the minds of inventors.

Next War Diary entry is coming.

Another FYI I'm using real 1:250,000 maps to create my stories and maps to battle on. Most are from the 1950's as I couldn't find suitable maps from the 40's with the coverage feature details I was looking for, in order to create winSPWWII maps.

Default Re: KG Griffin the Alt History Campaign Continues

I have some suggestions. The APCs you are using at the moment are using NATO camo schemes. They look an awful lot like Marder Is. I have re-designed the Bueffel Spz. I will append it here for you to look at. I also re-designed the Spz. 252s (also be appended here). If you want to get APCs for the 50s then the HS30 is your safest bet. I lengthened mine and made them more uniform. There is now a standard HS30 (1950 introduction with an AAMG) the heavier HS30 (with 20mm Gun) and a Gebirgjaeger variant which is similar to the other two but slightly bulkier (with a plow and a series of Infanterie Geschutzs mounted in a turret). (support and recon models exist as well). The benefit of using those is they look like something out of the 50s and they come in desert and winter schemes.

Well nice work, are you going to do a Cam'd version of the Buffalo. It would fit well with an idea of mine. I like the options you provided for the 252. Your eye is good my Rommels were early Marder I's.

Again Excellent stuff, Bravo Zulu
