Looking to get into the Tiller Campaign games

As far as Warsaw Pact surprise is concerned - I was working cryptographic equipment repair in the communication center at the US Army Berlin Brigade HQ from '73 to '75. I had access to daily reports concerning Soviet and DDR military activities. There were numerous daily reports detailing vehicle convoys, what units, what times, what equipment, from where to where. Aircraft, how many, aircraft types, what units, airbases, how long in the air, flying from where to where. Maritime activities, etc. etc. There were also some remarkably detailed human intillegence reports, but I won't go there because some of that might still be classified. Of course, in later years intelligence collection became even more effective than in my time, the stone age early '70s.

No, gentlemen, I can't possibly believe they ever could have surprised us.

Incidentally, (I can't resist a joke) "stone age" has a double meaning, pun is intended.
