RE: Maleme: Stemming the Tide AAR

<r> At 6:30 I woke up the IIFJ’s, and started them on the push for Platanias. When the force on the beach were down to just one unit I started moving the Luftwaffe battalions to Daskaliana to prepare for an assault on Platanias, but at 7:47 the 5th NZ Infantry brigade offered an unconditional ...

RE: Maleme: Stemming the Tide AAR

<r> By nightfall, aside from some resistance in the south the enemy was well and truly cornered. 5th & 6th FJ (the two para units dropped on the Pyrgos road objective) were doing incredibly well cornering the routers, and had already forced 3 or 4 units to surrender. I decided to keep on fighting ...

RE: Maleme: Stemming the Tide AAR

<r> The picture above was the situation at 20:20. The army had forced the majority of the enemy onto the beach, and the Glider troops were pushing forward. The IV heavy’s were getting some well earned rest, as was the IIFJ’s. I ordered the para’s from the Pyrgos road objective to push forward. I ...

RE: Maleme: Stemming the Tide AAR

<r> IIFJ is retreating, and even worse, the Allies have trying to push a wedge between them and the main army. The only thing stopping them is Braun (BRN) Company. 2nd line is successfully attacked NW, driving D.28 onto the beach, where C.23 had already surrendered. Of course this left my right ...

RE: Maleme: Stemming the Tide AAR

<r> There were still quite a few support troops and Artillery around the Daskaliana objective, so I decided to send IIFJ from the woods near Maleme to the fort just west of Daskaliana and try and drive them back to Pyrgos road, and harass troops retreating towards it from Pyrgos itself. They were ...

RE: Maleme: Stemming the Tide AAR

<r> So while assaulting through woods with Braun to try and cover IIFJ’s left flank, I ordered them to assault the objective and try and surround the forces in west Pyrgos, keeping to the left of the road and creek.<br/>
<br/>
Not long after that there was a mass allied rout on the 1st line ...

RE: Maleme: Stemming the Tide AAR

<r> At 6 it started to get light, and I could see the main force massing around Pyrgos, while the forces in the south retreated towards it. It looked like the main attack was in the north, making my decision to try and reach the fort with the 1st line battlegroup a huge mistake. Seeing as the ...

RE: Maleme: Stemming the Tide AAR

<r> I send Braun and a company of the IIFJ to deal with it. And order the mortar to retreat. For some reason it never captured the objective anyway. The 2 divisions haven’t got much AT capabilities, so I hope they can cope, or even better, the intel is wrong (which would make sense, seeing how they ...

RE: Maleme: Stemming the Tide AAR

<r> 1st contact is made at 5:03 by the II FJ battalion on the Pyrgos-Xamm road, and by the IV heavy at 5:10. Between the airfield and the fort there’s only 1 company of infantry, which is already retreating by 5:43, so I tell the 1st line battlegroup to advance to it. At this time I notice a sneaky ...

<r> <B><s>[b]</s>Initial Defence of the Airfield and Hill 107<e>[/b]</e></B><br/>

In ‘Kiwi’s Fight Back’, the main counter-attack came from the south, focused on the hill, and since Xamoudokhori wasn’t an objective then I pulled 9th FJ coy back to the hill to assist with defence. This time ...

RE: Maleme: Stemming the Tide AAR

<r> This is an after action report of my German defence of Maleme. I haven’t played the scenario before, although I completed the ‘Kiwi’s Fight Back’ game once, more through sheer bloody mindedness than tactics, and got a marginal victory. The game starts on the 21st of May 1941 at D1 04:00, and ...

Maleme: Stemming the Tide AAR

<r> Hey, I bought CoA a couple of days ago, and I've been completely sucked in. I thought I'd share my AAR of the Stemming the tide scenario by way of introduction.<br/>
