Here's a mystery picture for you all, just to help pass the time while we finish up the demo release, which is still schedule for today.

Anyone know what this is?

A Neubaufahrzeug?
Don't tell me it's in the game!

For what I know the Neubau Fahrzeug was an experimental project of Rheinmetall...

Yes, it's a Neubaufahrzeug and yes it was only used in Norway.

And no, it's not in the game.

Good Hunting.

Mobius needed the T28 for his Niemirow battle. I think there are 3 variants in the game.

IIRC It was only rolled out in Norway as part of a Victory parade by the Germans. Since
it was a prototype it didn't even have hardened armor, just soft steel plate for show
and running trials. Any tommy with a Boys ATR could have turned it into swiss cheese...

The first two were mild steel (1934), but there were 3 made from armour steel as well (1935).
The photo is one of the later armoured ones, with the Krupp turret.

Now the screen shots can be added by you guys. You don't need us to just post our screen shots any longer. I look forward to seeing what battle shots you guys come up with.

To take a screen shot in PCO you click F8. PCO will then create a folder in your PCO directory labeled Screens. It will put all your screen shots in there. They will be bmp files and you will need to convert them to jpg to post them here on the forums but I'm looking forward to your in game SS'.

Good Hunting.

MR

Pushing the armor into the center of town. If you wonder where the supporting infantry is, well, they're all dead.

Infantry is by far the hardest part of the game to get the feel for. Keeping them alive is a challenge.

Good Hunting.

A vast improvement, JMass, gorgeous! Well done.

You also told us you are working on the StuG IIIG (among others). Will that include the Sch�rzen?

Thanks, I am working to complete the Pz IV series, the StuG IV model is near to be done and it needs to be textured, then I'll begin the StuG IIIG/IIIH 42 that have the same superstructure of the StuG IV and obviously it will have the Sch�rzen.

How was this for timing? Hit a T-34 right at the end of the phase to get this screen shot.

I can't get J2D to stop playing with mortars either!

Here is a shot of him beating up on one of my few tanks.

Good news for me was that the tank was buttoned up already.

Good Hunting.

Not really sure if this is intended to be in the game, but if I go to commander view and then hit the "1" key, I get a 3rd person view. Whatever, don't change it! It is interesting for screenshots. Also hitting "2" or "3" gives an interesting cinematic view.

Tab was supposed to lock you on and only tab again or buttoning would unlock it. Keep breaking things, I like it.

Anyone know why there's a helmet hanging of the tank over the ghost symbol?

Your question wasn't so bad. (I was just in short mood.)

The longer answer is I did see some photos with the helmets there. (Like 3 lined up!!) So to create some variety in the PzIV models I decided to put a helmet there.

I guess in real life the armored infantry support("mot shutzen" then "PzGrenadiers") put them there. Or the tankers had helmets?

Playing a random campaign, I hope my armored car can win some awards, so I'm using him dangerously close to the front line.

My favourite pictures out of my modified 1st Infantry Division campaign. This guy had been taking fire from my pak38 for 6 turns, with no result. So I decided to rush him with a platoon of StuGs, using the hill as cover.

And the aftermath. It still took 4 point-blank hits to finish him. Quite a tense moment there, as his turret was already tracking one of my StuGs. I'm enjoying this game way more than expected.
