Matrix Games Forums

As there's always a lot of talk here in the Matrix TOAW forum about FitE and Derivates (Buzz Mod, Directive 21) i thought this could be of interest for some of you (probably only for those who are able to understand/at least read some german). There's a FitE AAR going on on this German TOAW forum: http://www.si-games.com/forums/forumdisplay.php?f=168

The german side: http://www.si-games.com/forums/showthread.php?t=17984
The soviet side: http://www.si-games.com/forums/showthread.php?t=17986

The game is now in the first quarter of '42 and it looks like both players are determined to go further. I find it very interesting as none(?) or at least only a handfull of the FitE games (those that are documented with an AAR) ever went that far.

Well I'm a littelbit surprised by this!
Just checked my mails and got a notification from Matrix Games Forum with a news about my game



for thoose of you who can read this enjoy.

Excellent! Well done!

Too bad my German is shoddy )
(I lived in Germany but was too small to remember language so well - they said that I dreamt on German lol).
I lived near Esslingen, but have been in many German cities somewhere even few months: Goeppingen, Munich, Stuttgart, Hannover, Reichenbach, Villingen-Schwenningen etc...

there are also hundreds of pictures

Yes, that is really cool! I have scanned just briefly German AAR side and it was really well done, with lot's of analisis and discussion. I think that German side will win, Leningrad is kaputt I think as Novaya Ladoga is captured (Leningrad loses supply point I think) and German are doing OK in other sectors...

Hehe, 1947 scenario would be great for AAR like this... the only thing about 1947 scenaris that is bad is too high initiative for Allied forces because Germans are on defensive there (didn't say that it is not fun).

Recapture of Nova Ladoga generates a new Supply source in Leningrad! [;)]

My family hasn't spoken German since they were kicked out in 1878! LOL

LOL cesteman, that's the spirit [:D] you are right, they should.

Are there any other versions than the original, Buzz & D21?

Can't read German, but looked at the Soviet Players pictures. Thats the first AAR of a big eastern scenario where I have seen the soviet player actually attempt to defend with his initial front line, and it seems to have worked out quite nicely for him! Most people seem to do a massive retreat, which ends with the Germans in Moscow before December [8|]

Yarrr! We made it with Fulkerson: First quarter of 42. LOL. Larry's previous game went even to 1944? So i wouldn't say none of players have made it. LOL. Going beyond 1942 isn't really any achievement... Very common.

EDIT: Look any FITE-AAR on the After action reports section, how many games you see which end before year 42?

[align=center]by now we reached turn 99 and I will launch case bluse durning the next 8 turns. The battle of Stalingrad is ahead.

Its getting very exciting... Im following...

You're doing good in Caucasus!

I think the russian player will need until late 42 to recover his losses.

green = infantry - hrs(right)
blue = tanks (left)
red = airplanes (left)

This chart indicates how many troops are ready to fight in the units. So no Pool equipment or other material is listet.

Example: Turn 90 there were almost 46.000 heavy rifle squads in use.
