Combat Missions
Our September 2006 (Rommel cover) issue of the print magazine featured Armchair General's first custom-made scenario to accompany an article. Entitled Tiger Trap! Hungary 1945, the reader is invited to make a desperate decision that will result in the most favorable outcome when a PzKw VI "King Tiger" must stop a Russian assault of 10 T-34/85's. Now you can make the choice in the magazine as well as play it out using Battlefront's Combat Mission: Barbarossa to Berlin game. Visit playit.armchairgeneral.com for more details! Thanks to Kerry (Palantir) from Xtreme Gamer for design assistance. |

History's Mysteries Rebuttal
Robert Bateman's article "No War Crime at No Gun Ri" (ACG January 2007) elicited a stinging rebuttal from Charles J. Hanley, one of the AP reporters who broke the original story in 1999 of this Korean War incident. Was this an Allied war crime, or a terrible accident? Learn about the controversy here.
