Has anyone played a campaign using noob's 'Panzer Campaign' combo?

Yeah sure, but I changed the Market Garden OOB so it might screw things up. :confused: lol.
Could you please put your copy into the dropbox please ?

I've finished the Axis OOB (well nearly) here what it looks like regarding troop numbers al-la CM numbers.
A lot of the armored units had 10-15 tanks in them, I trimmed them down to Plt size for more less one sided CM battles. A 11 Panthers advancing on a para coy would be way to lob-sided.
The '98/156 men' are 'current/full' strength of units, sure you might have guessed that.

EDIT: Allied CAS support had 24 Typhoons in each in squadron, I trimmed them down to 12 each.
I have put CM values (Experience/Fitness/Motivation/Leadership/Ammo) in each unit.


Scenario

Veghel, along Hells Highway, Sept 22nd, 1944: At dawn (06:00) of the 22nd, the Germans made yet another strong effort to cut the road north to XXX Corps. Kampfgruppe Walther, supported by the powerful Panzer Bridge 107 formed up east of the highway in the vicinity of Erp. They then drove, with some SS Troops, down the Gemert-Veghel road, while the Panzers moved off through the higher ground to the north. Their plan was to intercept the main road and drive on Veghel from the NE. This time the Germans were determined to cut Hell's Highway once and for all. At this same time, elements of the "Band of Brothers", 130 men from Easy Company, 506th PIR, had moved forward with 4 tanks of the 44th Royal Tank Regiment and were occupying Uden. These were the most northerly troops of the 101st, as most of the Division were involved with the containment of Germans troops in the Schjindel Sector, and with garrison duties along the "Hells Highway" in the Son sector to the south.
Cutting the road would be like severing an artery for the men at Nijmegen and Arnhmen.
Although the stratgic objective of MARKET-GARDEN had been lost by now (on September 20 the Germans had retaken the bridge at Arnhem from Col. John Forst's battlion of the British 1st Airborne Division) it is still critical to keep the road open.
The units north of Veghel where the 82nd at Nijmegen, the British 1st Airborne north of the lower Rhine, outside Arnhem, the Guards Armored and the 43rd Wessex Divisions, the Polish parachute regiment and the British 4th Dorset and 2nd Household Cavarly regiment.

I edited the OOB post above and included the Allied OOB and the scenario briefing.
Oh, and CM values to each unit (Experience/Fitness/Motivation/Leadership/Supply).

I'd be willing to GM this, if I had two peeps to test it with :)
I could play test it if you want.
 
Cool, do you want to share that Dropbox folder Cargol? ;)
Of course just send me an invitation.
One question,as i dont own Pzer Campaign Market Garden(i only have the Salerno title) my contribution is going to be on the CM field right?
 
I don't want to play any battles but if you guys would like a hand managing the campaign I'd be willing to help.
 
I can take part in this as I have MG 44.

@nathangun one question, in the PzC game the PzGR.Bn Mot 2107 is of Btl size while in the OOB that you posted the Btl is broken into Coys.
Is this possible in PzC or you ve split them just to portray their manpower?
Also in CM editor you cant have a unit lower than 50% of its original strength so starting with lower numbers might cause problems later on in the campaign(meaning that after a turn you ll have to amalgamate Coys or Btls.
 
You can combine/breakdown units in PzC. Plus I made the tank/panzer companies into platoon size.
Regarding CM units below 50%, I will deploy a full platoon + HQ unit at 40%, and so on. Once the company strength drops below 30% the company must disband or two companies can combine.

I've been reading and rereading the rules (God bless smart phones) and will do a FGM official rules in due course.
My next day off won't be till Tuesday so I won't be able to do anything till then.
 
Just to give you an update on this. I've done the Allied OOB in CM and made a start on the Axis OOB (screenies to come later).
I attempted doing a CM map of Eerde using goggle earth which I found time consuming. So I think it might be wiser using altered stock maps in CM.
Also, I posted a map of the PzC scenario for anyone interested, see above post with the OOB's.
@Bootie & @Cargol. I'm thinking of taking part in this rather than just doing the GM side of things. I propose playing the scenario without any FOW so to keep things on a even level.
I've edited the PzC Hells Highway scenario and added some extra armor for the Allies and AA for the Axis and a few extra VP's as well.
