Ok, check that mailbox, I sent email6.txt there.

It's strange how you can't receive my messages normally, I have not any problems with my other opponents.

This is the first game I am having this kind of trouble with. Played two games with you before with no trouble.. Maybe misspelled adressbook entry?

I was unable to capitalise on your surpressed troops due to the fact that mine were equally scred. I had to content myself with killing some of your crew from an ft-17 tank. Minor casualties occur onboth sides.

Tough fights in the nearby of central village, menlosses to both sides.
I lost another FT-17 at the Yugoslavians mortar barrage.

BTW, I always use "Reply to Sender" option, so it can't be mispelled adress.

Now I sent the files to you twice, and I hope you received at least another of them.

I got both files.... strange email.

Anyway Multiple infantry casualties on both sides. You loose two bren carriers.

Infantry casualties again to both sides, bunch of Yugoslavian AUX FT-17's spotted in the nearby of village (Where are my AT-teams ???:eek: )

You loose a whole Evizones squad to 4 Bikers:) A sniper picks of a 20mm aaa team. Misc casuaties all along the front.

More of the same, quite a lot of Greeks retreated at the end of turn...cowards!:mad:
It feels like both sides are supressed quite heavily because of barrages...

Greek's AUX units arrived finally and they are on their way to the front, where they are really needed right now.

Yet More infantry casualties.. I was unable to kill any tanks due to bad luck.. since several were in prime grenade range:) You lost a whole evizones squad. My men are tired with several squads down to 3-4 men.. yet we will fight on! More arty at the end of the turn

Infantry casualties, smoke and barrages.
It's very difficult to push forward without friendly casualties, there's a wall of mens in the middle section.

Two Yugoslavian motorcycle squads engaged and killed in our rear areas.

There is a short lul in the Infantry battle as the Yugoslavian forces regroup. Greek troop concentrations (including those 3mc squads and Engeneer platoon) get healthy doses of 105mm goodness:) The rest of the Greek forces are treated to the now customary mortar barrage:)

Suvorov said: When you have pushed back the enemy - you have failed. When the enemy is SUrrounded and scattered-you have succeded. We seem to be doing a lot of failing this game:)

Greeks failed in the south this time since they pushed back quite a lot of Yugoslavians and took 1/4 VH's there.

Greeks advanced a little bit in the northern flank also, but few AT & AA guns are causing a lot of problems to me

No turn again... I am sorry about this I do not know what is going on... Vikings and Willys turns get here always....

sandman20 · Post by **sandman20** » Wed Apr 23, 2003 9:35 am

Strange things...

Check your box now, I sent it twice...

sandman20 · Post by **sandman20** » Wed Apr 23, 2003 10:52 pm

I lost some mens in the south but I killed some in the north, that's all this time.

Back to you AD.

Hmm I think I made some bad purchasing descisions.. why i bought those 85mm guns - i dont know.

sandman20 · Post by **sandman20** » Fri Apr 25, 2003 10:10 am

Yes, heavy AA guns are quite useless in that case, though they causes some supression when shooting.:rolleyes:

Yugoslavian 40mm Bofors AA-gun eliminated in the south as well as some mens.

Greeks are still advancing slowly in the north also, couple of infantry squads pushed back and 65mm infantry gun lost few mens.

AngryDeemon1 · Post by **AngryDeemon1** » Wed Apr 30, 2003 8:41 pm

Semi mobile (Donkey powered) reserves are frantically repositioned. My 40mm positions are still holding strong, but I am running low on Infantry. Greek Bren Carriers and MC squads are hard to stop. Cursing my decision to buy thos 85mm AAA and ammo boxes for them... thats a company's worth of infantry.

Its turn 14 of 28 on next Tuesday I am leaving thecounty. We can finish the game if we manage turns a day.

sandman20 · Post by **sandman20** » Thu May 01, 2003 8:36 pm

More of the same, Greeks are advancing slowly in the north and south, men casualties to both sides.
Those 40mm's are indeed my biggest problem, you have a lot of them and I can't spot them all:mad:

I hope we have enough time to play this over before you leave the country.

Turn in tommorow... To beat trying to run down my doctoral committee to do a turn today..
