Favorite scenario?

[invernomuto]

What's your favorite scenario?

I'm currently playing "Push for the Bereka", very good tanks vs tanks scenario. Maybe I just like those powerful 88mm Flak guns

I haven't played enough of them to have a favourite, but I'll be watching the thread with interest. Do you find Push for the Bereka has high replayability?

Generally I have liked Infantry defends scenarios (usually battalion). And M'censk -later than Mcensk1, and SS 1945 budepest (Panthers and stuG).

The name of the scenarios is very helpful.

That's not as easy in PC as in most games since when you are in the game you can't see the scenario name displayed anywhere. It's easy to play a battle out that you like and not remember what the name of it is.

Good Hunting.

I have to admit, this seems like such a small detail, but it's a huge one for me now. I really got used in the original CM games to having the scenario title right there in the interface that when I play newer games that don't have that feature - I really miss it.

My noodler aint what it use to be and loading the PzC game takes much time. (Scenario editor is quicker.)

-Sov Karkov campaign-1, reversed as German player: '5/42 Assault of the 169th'. (I like the feel of battalion command. I imagine most _Inf btn defends (w/support)_ are good.)
--Sov Karkov campaign-4, reversed as German player: '5/42 The Battle for Veseloe'

-Mcensk scenario '10/41 Maloye Dumchino' [ger player]. PIII column ambushed turning bend in road.
-Mcensk scenario '10/41 Sheino' [ger player]. Played as my last PcK game; liked that map.

-'1945 SS Panthers'. "Operation Konrad" [ger player]. That oddly circled-village map is good from ground level.

Don't remember much detail from OWS. I know I was no good and didn't understand ground combat or OOBs.

For a challenge, I'm in for Operation Konrad. It's one of those scenarios where an advancing player starts in a corner (which is always a problem), so the first order of business is to spread out as he approaches the middle of the map. Then, the player has to carefully recce for t34 hiding, waiting for a lethal shot. It'd be nice if the Russian AFV were concentrated, but I it seems like the Panthers always end-up knocking them off one or two at a time. And just when the player believes that he's got things sewn-up and secure,  he'll too often find a t34 taking out one, or both, of his Panthers with a flank shot. Did I mention, that the German player is heavily outnumbered?

Well, i like the situation: a village in a valley that the germans have to occupy and lots of tank of both sides. I am playing it with the german in pbem, then we will switch sides.
Russian as usual seems to have an huge amount of tanks...
Ah, there is no arty in this scenario: I find arty to be too much accurate in PCK so I hope it will be an interesting scenario.

If the German player isn't heavily outnumbered this isn't the Eastern Front!
