WWZed Posted September 3, 2021 Author Share Posted September 3, 2021 Driver info choose either of the two trucks, for the Gaz or the SD 10/5 choose the Opel Blitz skin (available here). For the SD choose any skin make sure you choose high explosive shells and NO shields as the ground targets can’t be seen with shields on your gear button (g) drops stabs to stabilize the truck (it won’t move with them down) parking brake is on to start. the gun cannot depress low enough if you are driving directly at target, they shoot low at least 45 degrees off the nose Cephas may be driving a panzer III so watch for that, split and flank ammo is unlimited, outside view is on Have fun Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WWDarkdiz Posted September 3, 2021 Share Posted September 3, 2021 30 minutes ago, WWZed said: choose either of the two trucks, for the Gaz or the SU150 choose the Opel Blitz skin (available here). I have both trucks, the GAZ-MM 72-K and the German Half-track (Sd.Kfz 10/5). In tank crew there is a SU-152 or SU-122, both are tanks (self-propelled guns?), no SU-150? Are we going in trucks only?

WWZed Posted September 3, 2021 Author Share Posted September 3, 2021 Trucks only Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WWCephas Posted September 3, 2021 Share Posted September 3, 2021 I shall purchase the Sdkfz one unless it is way slower than the truck and that will be an issue. That time slot should work for me. Thanks for setting this up Zed. I don't have a gunner dog though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WWZed Posted September 3, 2021 Author Share Posted September 3, 2021 No purchase required, you can be a gunner if you want or jump in that old decrepit Panzer III I put at the other end of the airfield Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WWCephas Posted September 4, 2021 Share Posted September 4, 2021 I bought the SD 5/10 and took it on a joy ride chasing a convoy through a town in a quick mission game. I will get some more practice in tomorrow, Should be great fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WWCephas Posted September 5, 2021 Share Posted September 5, 2021 (edited) UPDATED 9/5/ with fixes and new parts to mission. If anyone is interested I made a quick Rattenpatrouille mission inspired by Zed. This mission is set in the Russian winter and the Patrol is ordered to race to a nearby medium sized village to ambush a Soviet convoy that will be heading through town shortly. I only made this with the halftrack vehicle, let me know if you need me to add the Gaz AA. (as always keep an eye (or ear) out on the skies!) The convoy is composed of random vehicles with a chance of light armored vehicles escorting. I recommend playing with icons on. If you want to get a total victory win you will need to conserve your ammo. It is playable by one to three vehicles in Dogfight mode. (it is in a new folder "Rat Patrol" to put under your /Dogfight folder) EDIT: MISION RENAMED AND PUT IN IT'S OWN FORUM THREAD "The Raid on Pravoe" P.S. Don't do what I did and try to ambush a truck at short range from behind a building and then get blown to pieces because it happened to be an ammo truck.

WWSittingduck Posted September 5, 2021 Share Posted September 5, 2021 sorry for being so totally useless last nite. If I get controls to work on any of the default tanks, going to assume the will work on the collector vehicles? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WWCephas Posted September 5, 2021 Share Posted September 5, 2021 yup Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WWCephas Posted September 6, 2021 Share Posted September 6, 2021 I whipped out another Rat Patrol Mission. RP Airfield Attack .zip This one has you navigating through the woods to a ridge overlooking an enemy airfield and then unleashing havoc. This one is Dogfight only, it will not load when I try to save it set to SP mode and I can't figure out why. (The previous mission worked fine) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
