Perfect! Love to give it a try!

I don't have time to handle big battles, but tiny is just right when you are juggling nappies and PBEMs.... :D

This particular page is about Hurtgen but he has done stuff on Stalingrad and Tobruk and many other topics. He does his own art both photoshop for maps and graphics and pen/pencil drawings.

Here are some of the sketches shown in the book...

@kohlenklau interesting stuff Phil, I'll have to check out some of Kadidal's books. Very good of him to make them freely available, they look like they are produced to a high standard.

The scenario looks like an interesting one too. Do you think it's small enough to play two-player realtime? It's been a few years since I played my one and only realtime two-player scenario (using hamachi), and I'm starting to get an itch to try another!
 
@Gnarly ...check the dropbox. Another new scenario with mods that I think will be the size that fits your busy lifestyle.
