With lots of vehicles scattered throughout and by the time I'm done fluhing him out of those buildings it will be flat.

Dream on Nazi Pig Dog!

The snow will have come and gone many times before you ever get to see the inside of "ONE" building in Bastogne.

Do I hear Rockets on the way?

Ummmmm....If I give you a tour of Bastogne, will you promise not to fire the Rockets. I'll even find some WAC's to escort you....

Nah, didn't think you would fall for the WAC's on the French Home tour trick.

My apologies, I missed your turn post somehow. Not much to report, got some units hiding in the woods. Trying to inch my way to town. This is coming a very long exhausting process.

Got the turn will play and send tonight before beddy bye:)

But, whew are you hard to see or what?!

Again we traded a few shots. I finished off a couple of immobilized tracks.

And, found a Panzer slowly making it's way through the snow out in the woods. One of my recon units stopped to see if they had been poaching the Kings Deer. But, they didn't want to play Robin Hood and blew their Jeep to Kingdom Come. How Rude!

Ooops sorry I was aiming at the deer behind the jeep.

It seems I underestimated your tactics a little, I figured you'd be renforcing the city waiting for me to roll in, instead you have roving patrols of armor and soliders looking for me or trying to set up an ambush. Well I guess I'll have to take to woods also to flush you out. I only want to give them invitations to the upcoming BBQ.

For the massive attack that was supposed to come this is like waiting for the other shoe to drop.

Finally, some signs of an organized attack. Smoke descends on the northern flank of Bastogne. Obscuring the first treeline beyond the city. Two squads of Engineers get shot up pretty bad before retreating behind their own smoke towards town. The ominous sound of heavy tanks can be heard from beyond the second treeline. So retreat and regroup is the order for the day. That is for those that can move.

So now that the smoke has fallen we sit amongst the ruins of a week long drunk. Waiting for the sky to rain rockets. Bring it on I gotta get rid of this hangover somehow...

Ok a very boring turn by our standards. I got a couple of foot soliders. A Panther ran into one of those Shermans lurking in the woods your crew must of thought it was the sausage wagon as fast as they bailed out and went running. One of the crew got trampled by his own men which means that Sherman won't recrew(a morale victory for me). It's turned into that prize fight again where we're doing alot of dancing but no punches, this will change when the rest of the party arrive for the festivities.

This is very interesting. Where the heck are you?

I got my french spies out there in the frozen french trenches and man you are either the master of making Panzers look like Frosty the Snowman or I should get ready for a whole bunch of Nazi Para's. (most likely just have everyone all bunched up there in the center inching forward to come smashing into town like a bunch of Trail Sore Cowboys on a Saturday Night.

Obviously you can see what I can't Jess. But, I got some recon still out there and either they are just walking right past the Nazi units or they ain't there.

Your cryptic statement about I'd be scared....did that mean I'm fighting ghosts?

Trraded some more hull shots with the Panzers in the middle, but again not much else. Lost a HT sneaking around in the back field.

I'd like to think I'm a ghost, I know your out in the woods looking for me and I'm looking for you. Also I'm pretty sure about some hot spots that might have an ambush waiting so I'm being extra causious. When we meet we can have tea!:D

Supervisor · Post by **Supervisor** » Fri Jul 19, 2002 8:42 am

Come out come out where ever you are, my cats are hungry. I know your out here looking for me, because my trophy case now contains even more bigger recon game Halftracks, you must be running out of recon units by now. I stirred up a hornest nest at the east gate. A Tiger shows it face in town and everyone even the villagers want to take shots at it, boy have I got a pinjuata surprise for them. If this is the kind of reception I'm going to get now what is going to happen when my King Tigers show up.

Schnapps Tea? Beer Tea?

Good recipe for a cold....Whiskey Tea.

One lemon baked at 350 for about 15 minutes.
One cup of hot black tea.
One or more tablespoons of Honey.
One or more shots of Wild Turkey.....

Take the baked lemon and squeeze the hot juice into the cup. Add the honey and tea and Whiskey. Consume all, hit the sack.

Home made Nyquil. What does that have to do with Bastogne? Have you ever stood out in the snow for more than a week with no show boots and only a few flea infested army blankets? That recipe is the hottest thing going around out there in the trenches!

Hey I didn't create this blood bath in the snow, yell at the creator about your frozen feet. It wasn't my choice to get stuck out here for months. I don't even know why I want to go to Bastonge they don't even have a karaoke machine. I would have love a blood bath with the temps at about 60 degrees.

Managed to bang away a lot at one PZ IV and threw a lot of grenades. Finally finished the guy off with an M4.

HT Recon surprised a Jagpanther in the woods ....And survived. They drove off to find somewhere to clean up.

If you don't know why you are here? Perhaps, I can send a few of the Locals out to give you some tips on how to get back to where ever it was you WERE going. I mean this was supposed to be a quiet place for us to take a breather.

Back to you.

Ok got some more recon units, I'd swear you have a cloning device, got a flame on the city edge, his BBQ was too close to the fuel bladder I think. Got a Sherman waiting to set up an ambush but I came from within the woods and not the road to surprise him he wasn't happy he left the party empty handed. Stumbled across a mobile 105mm with a Stug IV they're staring each other down like it was a gunfight at the OK Coral. My rockets sent some Arm Inf heading for the protection of their mommies. Other than that nothing exciting good things this is 50 turns it will be that long before most of my Kings arrive.:p
