Knocked this up from my play with the Tutorial. Its a testament to the game, that I can spend so much time on the Tutorial Scenario and still find it interesting and as I explore the terrain more and more that familiarity gives me the edge to win!

I'm certain I'll be slapped around on real scenario's, but I was having a bit of a tough time with the AI in the Tutorial itself.

Interesting. I'm intrigued as to when you launched off from Lommersweiler, as I was surprised to see German SS armour waiting for you before you'd reached St Vith. They don't usually turn up for a couple of days. Were you being very cautious? Had you changed the reinforcement schedules?

I'd moved reinforcements up forward, but there was a major confrontation in the bottleneck just below the Crossroads at Breitfield. I think the AI pulled forces out of St Vith itself to confront my troops at that chokepoint. I would describe my playstyle as quite cautious, and I'm no grognard, so still learning the ropes really.

It must have been some delay! However, I have had one instance of being seriously delayed by the 27th on the southern side of the river. Pretty much stalled my whole operation for half a day while I reorganised and re-planned. I liked your approach of swinging through Neidengen - it appears it saved the day.

Great AAR spelkZERO, enjoyed reading it. Nice bit of manoeuvre warfare to win the day. You moved on to other battles yet [;)] - look forward to reading them.
