Actually, AntiPersonnel weapons are sufficient for destroying the
Command Post. I have a copy of both Ogre and GEV, but they aren't
handy right now. I also have The Ogre Book, which includes such
niceties as new scenarios, strategy & tactics, and a few new units,
such as the Marks I, II, IV, and VI, as well as a few "hybrid"
units. (The Mark IV was also present in GEV.) Several of these
newer units are also in GEV, including light tanks, mobile howitzers,
and other goodies. Including the units would be no problem, but
fixing up the map would be a challenge. In GEV, the map is about
50% larger and has *terrain*. Roads, swamps, forests, rivers, lakes,
gullies, cities... Terrain is a Real Nice thing to have in a game
of ground based armor units. Ah well. There are also new rules
for stacking, ie allowing multiple units per hex, overrun attacks,
and other good stuff that would be nice to take into account.

Ah well. I can't check to see if this is a real "bug" or not, but
I'm gonna keep that patch handy...
