    Immersion Overhaul Mutator Information

    Did anyone actually consider making barbed wire like in Verdun? Damaging or possibly slowing down the player?

    Immersion Overhaul Mutator Information

    Can someone tell me if it is possible to fix the serpentine/zick zack run? You can easily exploit this to dodge rifle fire (even with dynamic speed). The game has no drag/centripetal force. https://youtu.be/lxmuwMIBySg?t=5m2s Does anyone know if adding AT guns to the game is achievable...

    Immersion Overhaul Mutator Information

    I figured. Avtomat, again Glantz has been criticized on the international stage and that criticism is absolutely justified (he wrote that book in 99, so the issue is from the past). Did you even read the Dupuy Institute critique? He used questionable 2ndary sources which a guy of his format...

    Immersion Overhaul Mutator Information

    Because people usually perpetuate the myth of the PPSH being highly superior to german small arms. Every faction of WW2 looted weapons, the PPSH was available in high numbers so they used it and converted it to their calibre, just like they copied the Sten at the end of the war. If you agree...

    Hello Avtomat, Unless you are joking, this is particularly immature. I think i hit a nerve there. You are are the equivalent of the guys in Ro2 who call themselves G

    Immersion Overhaul Mutator Information

    It was not my intention to start a forum war, merely to make this "public", because i actually enjoyed the IOM, until it turned into a pure "revisionistic project". None of your comments adressed the original dilemma i presented here. Additionally Cwalk, your comments pretty much sum up...

    IS 2 greatest tank of ww2

    So we are agreeing to disagree here. I know that the A-19 is a field gun you dont have to repeat that all the time (nobody stated its a howitzer either, i stated that the KV system was derived from Infantry support tanks and mobile combat howitzers). However, the D25 is a tank variant of this...

    IS 2 greatest tank of ww2

    from the encyclopedia of Soviet artillery: The (A-19) was a Soviet field gun developed in the late 1930s by combining the barrel of the 122 mm gun M1931 (A-19) and the carriage of the 152 mm howitzer-gun M1937 (ML-20) - its even written on wikipedia. The D25 is the tank variant of this gun from...

    IS 2 greatest tank of ww2

    From Zaloga IS2 Heavy Tank and Ian Allan, Stalins armoured might: derived from the KV13 (KV1S and KV2 mobile howitzer) prototype chassis and izdeliye 240 122 (chelyabinsk plant) it used an A-19 until it was replaced by the D25t (hence a converted howitzer, heavily armoured which could...

    "Distance is not a range" a gunnery guide for Soviet WWII Tank simulator

    Read again. I merely stated that Steel Fury Kharkov 1942 used Wikipedia sources and that there is no realistic WW2 tanksim to date which does everything correctly (impossible anyway, not to mention that Ro is not a tanksim and depicts mechanized warfare rather poorly). There are people who are...

    "Distance is not a range" a gunnery guide for Soviet WWII Tank simulator

    This book just gives a basic insight into the MILS system, for beginners i would certainly recommend it. However it is very superficial and does not go into technical and scientific detail too much. Furthermore, it just perpetuates myths without using any real reliable data on the actual AFVs...

    IS 2 greatest tank of ww2

    There is no such thing as "the best tank", there are only compromises (makes me laugh, when people say that they have a certain agenda :rolleyes:). Some tanks are good in this others are specilized for other situations. In hindsight and by giving a historical/statistical evaluation we can say...

    RO2 Some aerial photos of Stalingrad (real photos of some maps of the game)

    These are Akhil Kadidals illustrations (the aerial photos used in his work), the PDF can be found here https://chindits.files.wordpress.com/2011/06/stalingrad-pocket-4e.pdf , i must say tho that he did a lot of mistakes and just perpetuates some myths in his "research".

    Light tanks ruin Gumrak

    Yes thats it. That is not the only problem , it still exists up today with the T70 and other things (either the algorithms are so bad or the random factor is too great, it was never fixed). TWI has obviously problems with the laws of physics and certainly a false view on sloped armor. I've...
