The Brittish task force is folding rapidly, the northern flank is all but gone and the CS tanks miserably failed their assignment of
stopping the Panzers. Just south of the middle there are some skirmishes with German infantry, but nothing substantial.
Only Bofors Ridge seems to be holding, for now.

British flanks are gone, unfortunetly german forces do not have enough time to do much besides charge the british encampments around their home vh's. It is doubt full that in 3 turns this can be done.

Got one of the PzIVs
Won't help much, of course, no time left to retake any terrain.
Wonder If I even manage a draw on this one
Rematch? Haven't tried US yet in PBEM...

Not to much happened this turn. You lost a 2pdr and a truck, and of cource some inf died. One of my inf squads got in range of AA ridge and killed a couple crewmen but didn't unman the gun.

Rematch will be fine. Think I will try Japan if your going to do US. I haven't tried japan yet.

Once more into the breach my friends...
The remaining Brits put everything they've got left in a desperate last charge and manage to blunt the Germans rushing forward.
4 Krupps trucks die, as well as a 75FH on one of them. three rifle squads and a MG34 are wiped out as well.
The PzIV seem to have given up on capturing the last Vhexes and not risk death by 25pder. Wonder if they're quick enough to catch the Brittish vehicles now charging towards german-held territory:rolleyes:

Brits retake the southern hill! (insert maniacal laughter)
More German Inf dies on the central hill, at the expense of some FAT quads.
US vs Japan sounds Ok to me. How about an amphibious assault?
Would be more interesting than a meeting engagement in the jungle, IMO.

You dirty rat!!!
Your so lucky that Pz2 was still imobalized grrrr.
Sure the amphib assault sounds fine, you set it up. I will assume the assaulter will get more artillery leway.

Well, you still have ONE chance for revenge...
I thought I was player 2 so I didn't do much this turn :rolleyes:

Draw! Arg! I managed to get 1 of the vh's back but I don't think they would have made any difference in the outcome personaly.

Will do, but I've got some trouble setting it up. The AI thinks the defenders need a 3:1 advantage

Dang it! Thought I'd fix the attakcers points instead of the defenders. Now the ocean is on the wrong side of the map.
You want to have a go at setting this up? I'm out of ideas to make this work
