<t>Good God, Sir, they are using Cavalry!<br/>
<br/>
Cavalry you say? That's absurd...don't these idiotic savages...Oh well, What about the Tigers?<br/>
<br/>
They're taking a heavy rain of shrapnel, and one of them has a damaged suspension. Our "Special Suprise" has most likely failed, the first ...

I'm just trying to do a favor for a friend who's on the dev team, he wanted me to find some people who were Mature, interested in WWII, and Gamers...and there's no better place than here to do that that I can find.

<t>Oberst Funck, one of our Tigers has taken two shots, she has apparently sustained no damage, and the crew is quite well, but the field to the north is now being engaged, and the battle will soon be joined.<br/>
<br/>
Our Motorcycle Scouts have encountered a Russian scout group, but have ...

<r>But how many of you play FPS? I mean, some of you might, and if you do, and have UT2k3, here's a good reason to keep it installed on your computer.<br/>

81mm Mortar, hitting within two feet of the front or back of an AFV, will explode with enough force to shatter the underbelly Armor apparently.

I'm not gonna argue, 8.1cm's of Mortar exploding nearby is gonna cause a pretty big boom.

<t>5 StuG's are T-Bait in my books.<br/>
<br/>
I've learned the StuG's are only good if you're fighting in a City, or very close terrain, where you can prevent Armor from getting behind them.<br/>
<br/>
Tiger's? I can always find a use for at least one tiger.<br/>
<br/>
The things really should have ...

<t>Tigers?<br/>
<br/>
A.) In Attack, preferably you should have other units move foreward, while your Tigers remain at about 15 hexes or more away (I typically try to keep mine at 20 or so from my targets) This keeps pesky T's and other smaller tanks from getting good shots on my Tigers, doing this ...

<t>Oberst Funck's Men, heading home for a break on May Day (May 1st) Have come under fire by Russian Artillery, Colonel Funck, expecting the worst, has deployed scouts to move forward to find any enemies, and report back to him.<br/>
<br/>
One valiant german has already become a casualty, struck by ...

<t>Actually, I had heard about the Compressed Air Mortars, it's kinda what gave us the idea.<br/>
<br/>
Oh, and Mortars hitting a ground within close proximity of a tank, either in the front or back, would definitely score what SPWaW would consider a bottom hit, the bottom armor on most tanks, even ...

<t>Everything ~except~ the Sturms and Elefants.<br/>
<br/>
I dunno, two Elefants held off a whole company of Shermans once for me.<br/>
<br/>
Never doubted them since then.<br/>
<br/>
Sturms? Well, I got two of them once.<br/>
<br/>
They racked up over 30 kills each that game, mostly HT's and ...

Whatever you do, keep your tanks out of forests.

75% of the time, tanks in forests will get killed by a 4 man recon platoon with a Satchell Charge or something.

All it takes is 1 hit in that forest to cause your tank to Button, and then he sees zip.

Apparently the Russians moving East back home for R&R encountered my troops moving west to do the same thing, how interesting.

Want to make a new thread in DAR/AAR or should I when I get the first turn?

Still waiting on that e-mail...


Also, I only have normal 7.1, do you have anything else?

Germans, and that sounds perfect!

<t>It's a pretty common situation in my case. The best answer is still always infantry, keep those tanks behind 'em unless you've got heavy Anti-personell fire coming from the front. Then move your Armor ahead slightly, with Infantry very close behind, and move very slowly, and attempt to stay ...

<t>Pondering a game or two at most, don't have any going on, and have plenty of free time now in the summer...<br/>
<br/>
I don't care what side, settings, or anything else, prefer all realisms on, C2 is workable on or off, Reduced Squads is debatable, prefered off.<br/>
<br/>
Any place, any time ...

<t>Playing the Soviet Union, I try to take some of their 208mm guns almost every battle. I've yet to find a time when they don't come in useful for at least one barage.<br/>
<br/>
I've had a point where I had a mixed-force, some conscripts where fighting a british rifle company in a city block. Well ...

<t>Infantry, preferably with some AT weaponry, spread out, 1 every other hex around the VH's, with at least one on one of the VH's as to prevent someone from sneaking on, your tanks then inside/behind the smoke screen, using your infantry as a bufferzone and spotters<br/>
<br/>
Works, doesn't it ...

<r>Typically these kinds of fights can boil down to slug-fests, with whoever can simply out-shoot and out-penetrate the other winning.<br/>
<br/>
However, I've noticed that if you take Russia's medium tanks from this period, the T-34's and T-44's, with proper use they can easily take down German ...

Why not, I'll take you up on it, emailing you now.
