"These are the darkest days of the Nazi occupation of Stalingrad." - Viktor Reznov, 1942. This mod was created for a better authentic experience in playing the Vendetta mission. Please read the instruction carefully to install the mod, and we recommend playing with the OFFICIAL versions would be a suitable choice to prevent any further technical issues.
Here are additional textures and models for the Vendetta mod's future updates and certainly for the future MaM project. All of the textures were made by PanzerMan while new models were provided and arranged by Gicombat:
Details according to PanzerMan and FeReise:
1) Panzerkampfwagen IV Ausf. F2 (G) from 24. Panzer-Division
2) Sonderkraftfahrzeug 251 from 71. Infanterie-Division
In the original game, a later modification of the Panzer IV was used as a Wehrmacht tank, with additional turret armor. But now in the mod, you can see the correct tank for the Battle of Stalingrad. Also as in the original release, the anachronistic autumn camouflage in the late war style has been removed from the SDKFZ 251. All vehicles now use the color "Panzergrau."
In addition, although the existence of Pz. IVs in the Vendetta mission as in the original game are indeed questionable, we have our own 'lore-friendly narrative' to help clarify this for you guys. In reality, only the 71st ID heavily participated in the Square of Fallen Fighter areas, and the unit was accompanied by StuGs from 244th Sturmgeschütz Abteilung. However, with the existence of the fictional Gen. Amsel, he could have asked for additional reinforcements from other divisions and received them in considerable numbers. Particularly some or few Panzer IVs from 24th PD, Luftwaffe flak guns and crews from the 9th Flak Division (judge from Flak 88s around the map), a few snipers from 100th Jager Div, and possibly some or few reinforcements from nearby 295th ID as well.
