Re: JBeil (G) vs eisman (S)

Turn two - I've liquidated the pocket around Lvov, and used some of the panzers from AGC to hook north towards Velikie Luki - my plan there is to try and go around the big developing force in front of Smolensk. AGN is already looking like it will have a real job on to cross the river into Estonia, a...

Re: JBeil (G) vs eisman (S)

T1NF.png I managed to reach Riga but it took a significant effort from the Panzers - I might have been better off swinging further east to set up a bigger encirclement. Still, I've driven a lot of airfields away, and next turn I'm aiming at getting near Tallinn. I've reached the Daugava, so my oppo...

JBeil (G) vs eisman (S)

Hello! After years of sitting in my Steam library, I've decided to finally take on the task of learning how to play WitE, and eismann has graciously invited me to play a PBEM game on the 1.12.07 version of the game. I've played the first few turns of a game against the AI, and I've done a few small ...

Getting to Grips

<t> I've been using the Christmas period to celebrate the season of goodwill and peace on Earth by re-fighting the most awful war in history, but I'm not feeling very successful. I've only played as The Baddies so far, but I find myself struggling to achieve the huge encirclements, particularly arou...

Getting Started

<t> Hi all, <br/> <br/> I've really enjoyed reading through the AARs and I've played a few games of the Road to Minsk scenario, but I just can't work myself up to start the Grand Campaign properly. How do you recommend a new player move on from the shortest scenarios without going straight into the ...

Pockets

<t> Hi all, <br/> <br/> Quick question for a total noob; I've played my first three hours as Hadler, and I found that my encirclements were far too ambitious, aiming at cutting off rail ways three or four hexes behind the enemy's rear positions rather than smashing through their rear elements to mee...

RE: Glorious spring SNOW 44 apr 42

<t> I think you're probably looking at a difficult game from here on unless you can achieve a pretty hefty series of encirclements between now and the next mud; your biggest problem is that in the south, where there are few troops, there's relatively little worth taking. If HYLA is determined to hav...
