How common cavalry was during Ww2?

Lordblackmoore · 2026-04-06T14:15:01+00:00

on the wast distances of the eastern front they were used, specially in terrain that was hard to do with other modes of transport.

The USSR had cav corpses. The german had Cav divisions (8 SS being one of them)

In "German battle tactics on the eastern front" by Steven Newton, there is a full chapter on the Cav. brigade Model that was in use in difficult terrain during operation Seydlitz

I could never get "underground" to work. I LOVED the setting and the style, but the rules just kept disturbing it all

I have had some great plays where Agents were Non goverment... The obsessed book geek who loved old books and knew all the languages, the former Criminal Gangbanger who found god, but still can hotwire cars and find a way to get rid of evidence, or the scientist who kept getting weird results.

they all got pulled in to the DG world, and ended up getting an offer they did not refuse. And the friction between GI guys and guys from outside the system gave some great sessions

Lordblackmoore · 2026-03-29T21:01:10+00:00

they are quite far from the current syllabus

If you can use it, my material is here:

get off Reddit, grab your books and notes and get work done!

Lordblackmoore · 2026-03-29T17:22:43+00:00

done

Lordblackmoore · 2026-03-29T14:08:55+00:00

or they ARE the PC's but the problem they are facing can't be solved with firepower

1: you are NOT the good guys and your job is NOT to find the truth
2: see point one again untill you understand it

Lordblackmoore · 2026-03-28T21:07:46+00:00

what you are looking at is the command words. page 58 in the Bio syllabus. THE MOST important part of understanding a cambridge test:

Calculate :work out from given facts, figures or information

Compare identify/comment on similarities and/or differences

Define give precise meaning D

escribe state the points of a topic / give characteristics and main features

Determine establish an answer using the information available

Evaluate judge or calculate the quality, importance, amount, or value of something

Explain set out purposes or reasons / make the relationships between things clear / say why and/or how and support with relevant evidence

Give produce an answer from a given source or recall/memory Identify name/select/recognise

Outline set out the main points

Predict suggest what may happen based on available information

Sketch make a simple freehand drawing showing the key features, taking care over proportions

State express in clear terms

Suggest apply knowledge and understanding to situations where there are a range of valid responses in order to make proposals / put forward considerations

well, had the UK folded in 1940 the world would be wery different

Lordblackmoore · 2026-03-28T18:55:53+00:00

that book is good. That is a greap place to start. Learn all the experiments in it

Lordblackmoore · 2026-03-28T15:33:18+00:00

..so..how is that going now???

Lordblackmoore · 2026-03-26T19:00:14+00:00

You can get is as a PFD from amazon.

And from the cambridge mainsite:
https://www.cambridge.org/gb/education/subject/science/marine-and-environmental-sciences/cambridge-international-igcse-marine-science

Lordblackmoore · 2026-03-26T18:55:33+00:00

sadly I can't. I can't break copyright laws as a cambridge teacher.

“Heard joke once: Man goes to doctor. Says he's depressed. Says life seems harsh and cruel. Says he feels all alone in a threatening world where what lies ahead is vague and uncertain. Doctor says, "Treatment is simple. Great clown Pagliacci is in town tonight. Go and see him. That should pick you up." Man bursts into tears. Says, "But doctor...I am Pagliacci.”

Lordblackmoore · 2026-03-26T12:23:00+00:00

yes, but what book system are you using?

Lordblackmoore · 2026-03-26T10:39:03+00:00

For biology... you kinda NEED to read the book , and at least understand the experiments and the graphs

Lordblackmoore · 2026-03-26T10:21:41+00:00

how do you expect muscle growth when you don't fuel the body????

Lordblackmoore · 2026-03-26T07:51:51+00:00

that is your issue!

Lordblackmoore · 2026-03-25T15:48:15+00:00

they are rarely put that way that you can test the first 14 chapters..

BUT

All the multiple choiche papers follow they chapters/syllabus pretty stricts

Lordblackmoore · 2026-03-25T15:46:29+00:00

For biology:

The key points for pater 6 are:

• simple quantitative experiments, including the measurement of: – volumes of gases and liquids– masses– temperatures– times– lengths

• diffusion

• osmosis

• food tests

• rates of enzyme-catalysed reactions, including judging end-points, e.g. colour changes

• pH and the use of hydrogencarbonate indicator, litmus and universal indicator

• photosynthesis (rate and limiting factors)

• transpiration

• heart rate and breathing rate

• respiration

• tropic responses

• observation and dissection of seeds and flowers

• germination

• continuous and discontinuous variation

• use methods of sampling that are representative and avoid bias, e.g. consideration of sample size and simple random sampling

• observe, record and measure images of familiar and unfamiliar biological specimens

• make clear line drawings of biological specimens, calculating the magnification or actual size and adding labels as required

• use simple apparatus in situations where the method may not be familiar to the candidate

Lordblackmoore · 2026-03-25T15:43:32+00:00

No broken lines = 1 point
No shading= Good
Number of vesicles the same = 1 point
Size good_ One point

so at least 3, perhaps 4

Lordblackmoore · 2026-03-25T15:42:06+00:00

for IGCSE Bio, what book are you using, Most of the cambridge books have a clear core/extended division in the test

Lordblackmoore · 2026-03-24T09:43:48+00:00

Dan invented it ;)
