I am looking for a video to teach Tjay and Co how to do a River crossing.

I have searched YouTube in English to no avail.

The video in question features:

Stage 1: Infantry (Poss PanzerGrenadiers) crossing river in small boats.

Stage 2: M3 Bridging Vehicles Link up and form a bridge

Stage 3: Leopard 2 company swarms across in short order.

Stage 4: M3s disperse

Gepards Flakpanzers feature as part of the Leopard company.

TIA

Only video I can find (searching for 'Flussüberquerung') is this one, a news item:

Maybe it's from the same exercise? Hope it helps...

Hedge,

I think I've seen the same one as you are referring to.

Somewhere in the "Video" section perhaps?

A Czech version:

Will keep looking.

Soviet versions (more detailed):

Or maybe you are thinking of the Chris Barrie show on Massive Machines where they did an "amphibian" one that covered the M2 Ferry and ended up with the bridge in place and the tanks crossing?

Of course its the only one NOT on YouTube.

Yup the chris barrie one (Bl**dy typical).

Oh well I will peruse the results later in the week.

Tanks for your help guys.

Tjay, this is a MICLIC in action.

(Attached to an M1 tank this time, but exactly the same system)

[Gibsonm]

Or you could read the MICLIC tutorial that I wrote, and run it in the game itself.

Hi Hedgehog

I know you're looking for a video but Chapter 6 of Soviet Tank Battalion Tactics, Defense Intelligence Report, 1977 and Chapter 12 of Soviet Tank Company Tactics, Defense Intelligence Report, 1976 provide helpful overviews, including diagrams, of the Soviet approach to river crossing.

They may be worth reviewing; I'm sure the basic principles remain applicable.

Cheers

BTW, if you want a guest lecturer to talk your guys through it, happy to help.
