Hill 247

[V22 Osprey]

Not really a full AAR, I just wanted to show you guys of me getting my butt kicked.[:D]

Look at this fierce soviet counter-attack.[X(]

I've never seen anything like it.[X(]

What do you guys think?Should I run or make a stand?

[Jason Petho]

Looks like you've lost anyway, so I would make a stand and try out some counter-attacking tactics in the last few turns.

The AI does a great manuver, trying to cut off my forces still on the hill:

[V22 Osprey]

I decide to order a full but organized retreat to orther wise they will die.Hopefully the line of halftracks can delay the Soviet Infantry:

[V22 Osprey]

My remaining forces still trapped on hill give up and decide to do one last ditch effort to take the hill.Of course, there is no way for them to hold out:

[V22 Osprey]

Second to last turn, I create a new line of defence.Trapped units still on the hill are unable to dislodge that SMG Platoon:

[V22 Osprey]

Last Turn.Still unable to take the hill, and there still one more platoon who hasn't reached the line of defence:

The Hill:


The Line of Defence:RUN!!! Run little Pz Grenadier Platoon!

[V22 Osprey]

I clearly lost, it was a diasster.

Ws pretty boring watching the AI move all these trucks.[>:]

Any Questions, Comments, and thoughts on the battle?

[V22 Osprey]

Well I guess I will share my final thoughts:

Great scenario, but the counter attack IMO is a little too much.The counter attack should level the playing field, not make the soviets un beatable.The soviets cut through my lines like a hot knife through butter.Dispite me being able to force multiple retreats on the counter attack, they just kept coming.

Man, I have been away from this game for far too long! Thanks for posting this. It was a fun look back. I think I need to get this game before too long. Had all the versions years ago, but it looks like them made some changes. I have followed several AAR's here and they have all been fun to watch. Again, Thanks!
