A good source for DAK pictures
 

I guess the FH devs already know this, but as it's a german site I just post it in the unlikely case they don't.

It's the main homepage of the DAK, Deutsches Afrika Korps...

It contains quite alot pictures, including very rare ones and also alot of german defences, which might be helpfull...

Enjoy: http://www.afrika-korps.de/galerie/main.php


Like this one, a command trailer used for airports in the desert (FH2 :deal:)

or this one, General Fröhlichs Command trailer, or rather bus

Camouflaged german guns, around Derna (I wish FH2 defences will look like this)

Fantastic! I came across a picture of a Flak-18 dug in so deep that the barrel at 0 degrees (parallel to ground) was no more than 18" clearance from the ground. An 88 that could present such a low profile must have been lethal indeed. Great site. I love the burning tank shots.

Hehe, of course we know this site Stauffenberg, it's the first hit you get when you search for "Afrika Korps" in google... :p

Thx, nice site. I never really search for stuff (shame on me, I know) but whenever someone posts a link I enjoy it a lot.

Something for the mappers: look at the pictures of plain desert. It's not empty at all, most of the time there are small shrubs and patches of grass. Something else you can see is that the sand doesn't have the same color everywhere.

I'm sure we won't be seeing Sahara type desserts all over the place, the devs and fan mappers can use colour picuters of how the terrain looks these days. If you have seen some of the maps Anlushac was working on for FH1, those were realistic in appearance. :naughty:

Gah, I thought the "camouflaged guns" caption referred to the bus.

I stared at that picture for a long time, trying to find the dam PAK.

(Waldo is in the second window from the back.)

I thought it was in the bus too...

And I thought I was the only one.
