RE: Ray of Hope (Allies)

<r> Just out of curiosity, I tried the scenario again with the same parameters, but as Axis. It was a LOT more difficult from the Axis side, and even through I managed to hold my biggest objectives, it was still only a draw, since points are capped to 100 and the objectives in this scenario are ...

RE: Tanks at Platamon CTD

Has there been any new info about this issue? I'm also getting a crash on Tanks at Platamon at exactly Day 2, 1200 when running the latest patched version under Vista.

RE: Ray of Hope (Allies)

<r> Aaand it's over. No worthwhile counter-attack ever came, just small skirmishes with companies that half their men in fighting condition.<br/>

RE: Ray of Hope (Allies)

<r> Sliema is secured at 6:30 and Valletta becomes official under Allied control at 08:00 on Day 5 as most of the enemies surrender or withdraw from the city into Fort St. Elmo. Now we just have to sit tight for next 32 hours, but currently it looks pretty much a total victory for the Allied forces ...

RE: Ray of Hope (Allies)

<r> Day 5, 03:46. It's been a long fight, but we nearly control both Valetta and Sliema. It's just a matter of hunting down the few remaining enemies, which takes time in a dense city environment.<br/>

RE: Ray of Hope (Allies)

<r> 17:09. We were supposed to have Valletta under our control at 12:00, so we're running a bit late on the schedule, but otherwise everything is going just as planned. The attack groups have advanced at a steady speed and without taking any major losses. The rest of the 1st UK Armor Brigade is ...

RE: Ray of Hope (Allies)

<r> Here's the battle plan for taking Valletta. The attack is separated into four combat groups. Each of them consists of a full brigade of infantry, who are supported by light tanks, heavy tanks, AT-guns and flak batteries. Four mortal platoons are stationed in Hamrun for short range artillery ...

RE: Ray of Hope (Allies)

<r> 11:35. The enemy forces are in disarray, and hastily retreating deeper into Valletta. 2/6 has routed the light tanks at the Ta Kali Airfield and is taking positions to defend it, while 8-CO is falling back to Zebbuj to keep watch there. In birgu, the troops have manned the coastal fortifications ...

RE: Ray of Hope (Allies)

<r> Here you can see the current bombardment missions that are underway. Valletta is not a pleasant place to by at the moment.<br/>

RE: Ray of Hope (Allies)

<r> Day 4, 07:26. The enemy is retreating from Hamrun, and I'm starting to prepare for the attack on Valletta. 2/4 and 2/7 will support the assault from Birgu and main force will be chopped up into small combat groups mixing infantry and armor. 3-4 combat groups will assault Valletta directly, and ...

RE: Ray of Hope (Allies)

<r> Day 4, 04:07. 8-CO runs into some light armor at the Ta Kali Airfield, and have to take cover. Even light armor is a formidable opponent to the commandos who don't carry any AT weapons. Therefore, I send the 2/6 from Sijuwi to help capturing the Airfield. Thay are armed with <LINK link="http ...

RE: Ray of Hope (Allies)

<r> Day 4, 01:26. The assault on Hamrun is on with full force now. There's an enemy flak battery guarding the road, which is really giving trouble to the infantry advancing from Marsa, but the companies from 2/3 should flank it soon. At this point, we're basically rolling over the enemy and I ...

RE: Ray of Hope (Allies)

<r> 18:23. The forces occupying Birgu are still being rather heavily shelled, but all of them are so tired that they are practically falling in asleep in the middle of mortar fire. A major mobilization operation will see 2/2, 2/3 and a few companies from 2/1 move into the urban parts of Hamrun ...

<r> 17:30. There hasn't been much to report during this day. Fighting continues in Birgu, but the city is firmly in our hands. The battle lines for the major assault are forming south from Valletta and a heavy armor brigade lands just in time to participate. 1st UK Armor Brigade has a total of 175 ...

RE: Ray of Hope (Allies)

<r> Day 3, 06:27. Sun rises on the third day of the operation and more Allied reinforcements land on Malta. The 16th Australian Infantry Brigade HQ brings 24 new units with a total of 3825 personnel. I'll send one battalion to Birgu, and the rest will station between Curmi and Paula as an additional ...

RE: Ray of Hope (Allies)

<r> 20:05. The enemy has managed to sneak a small group past my main force and is threatening Zeitun. The two base units in Zeitun have moderate firepower, but they are not really combat troops, so I'm pulling a couple of squads from Paula to intercept. It will take a good while for them to get ...

I'm not too worried, as we have a lot of soldiers there now, and 2/8 has just started an assault on the attackers' flank. 2/4 is finally making progress towards Birgu, and we should be able to ...

RE: Ray of Hope (Allies)

<r> 11:28. The assault on Birga is advancing slowly. The enemy artillery is doing a bang up job suppressing the 2/4, so they have hardly moved from Paula yet. Speaking of Paula, the town will be under heavy attack soon, so I'm bringing in the AT-guns and some additional troops from the landing area ...
