Germany (K) delaying the red threat.
'44, medium map, 4000 points.
quality vs quantity.

Gary Tatro · Post by **Gary Tatro** » Wed Sep 18, 2002 5:47 am

Before I do my purchase and deploy let me know that you want to do this with these numbers.

Human vs Human

Meeting engagment 1 To 1

Advance vs Delay 3 To 2

Assualt vs Defend 2 to 1

So if you took 4000 points I should only get 6000 not 10K

Even at assault #'s you would be giving me a huge advantage.

So in good faith I request that you repurchase and resend to me.

By the way for Assualts I play that the defender gets as many mines and obsticles as they want.
For Advances I play that the delayer gets 250 points worth of mines.
Also I play that each side can have the same amount of artillary using the attackers value. So if I am attacking and get 6000 points total we would both be able to get a max of 600 points in artillary.

Huh? Actually, I thought I'd set both sides to 4000

Oh well, I'll be back later with more mines and arty.

Germans are dug in and waiting for the slaughter to commence.

German superiority in range fighting cover their advance with showers of smoke while fending off a couple of air attacks.

But if it is more convinient to get it here.

Katana · Post by **Katana** » Sat Sep 21, 2002 9:47 pm

Ah, let's use the email. Take the load of the board a little.

Lot's of smoke in the north and the Soviet rear, not a lot else to see.

This just in. The Germans have set up a delaying action directly ahead of us and we have proceeded to lay down smoke to help close the distance on the enemy. But comrade we have now just learned that we need to deal with this threat in the next 30 minutes.
What thirty minutes. We will use that amount just to scout out the enemy. Well comrades we have work to do. I am not sure we can do it in the time Moscow wants us to do it but we will try.

I hope you are not waiting for a turn. I have played and sent it back to you.

Katana · Post by **Katana** » Tue Sep 24, 2002 3:27 am

Doh, I haven't. Sent it, that is. Sorry about that. It should be in your inbox by now.

15 turns is short indeed, I forgot to set the length manually. I take it you also noticed the points per turn VHs? I hope you don't mind, but I felt they were apropriate to the mission.

Not much to report game-wise. There's a bunch of bikers approaching, on what appear to be BMWs

BTW Did you know the Russians are still building those things?
If you want to ride the two-wheeled equivalent of a Kuebelwagen, they're still for sale to this day.

The rest of the Soviets is hiding in the treeline. They're spotted by a Ju-88 and that's about all the help I'm gonna get fom the Luftwaffe (**** quads)

I would love to see your results but, I think you sent the wrong file we were playing slot 5 I believe. You sent slot 9.

Tilts back the bottle of Vodka and smiles as liquid fire oozes out from his stomack to every part of his body. He wonders to himself if this is what it must have felt like to the German Comander when he realized, to late, that his position had been infiltrated by Partisians. He thinks on how the comander must have paniced when he looked up from his charts and saw a soldier in camoflage standing in front of him reviewing his maps with him. How Ice must have froozen his stomack and then spread out through the rest of his body as the bullets riddled him.

Ahh the battle is off to a good start, the German commander is dead, two Pz-VIh's destroyed and a whole mine field discovered.
Now if I could just get the damed airforce to cooperate, could you believe that the stupid airman mistoke a kublewagon for a Stug40. God you just can not get good airmen any more.

Now if only Moscow would give him a couple of more hours to clean up this mess it would not cost mother Russia hardly any of its precious tanks but such is life in Moscow.

Oh boy, looks like I'm in trouble in the south. Major artilley target in the south, but those guys ae s-l-o-w.

No doubt something equally nasty will show in the north soon, once the kamikaze bikers have found a way around the minefield.
Hope I'll have a timely reply for them as well.

Gary Tatro · Post by **Gary Tatro** » Wed Sep 25, 2002 7:08 am

Battle report comming in. We have made contact with the enemy in the North and the South. For some reason the Germans are screening the incoming force with heavy concentrations of armor. With the smoke barrages we have been successful in closing the distances on armor and have been able to engage with our infantry. Assaults are not going well, we only immobilized two Stug40 F/8's, but we have been successful in protected our own limited armor resources and have given our own armor the chance to close and destory another Pzkpfw-VIh, 2 Pzkpfw-VIJ's and a Stug40 F/8 also our aircraft scored a kill on another Stug40 F/8.

Wonderful comrade that is a total of almost 2 platoons of enemy armor dead and we have only lost, what a SU-57.
Yes Capitain!
How did we get so luck.
Well comrade it seems that the enemy did not know that we had scouted it out and was hit by our artillary barage by supprise and we were able to close with a number of armor units and fire on them unopposed.

That was fortunate, but don't expect the new German commander to make the same mistake twice.

Katana · Post by **Katana** » Thu Sep 26, 2002 2:48 am

Right.

Germans actually manage do some damage this turn, destroying a bunch of cheap ZSU57s and halftracks. Even a PT34/85 listed among the kills.
Nowhere near an even exchange, but then again, all the germans need to do to win is die slowly enough.

VikingNo2 · Post by **VikingNo2** » Thu Sep 26, 2002 9:37 am

K; hit all the trees with motars, and be advised you will be fighting lots and lots of halftracks with 57mm/.50 cal and huge amounts of infantry.

If you didn't get any strumtiger's or bumbars get some

My two cents

Gary, world events have made my work very busy for awhile it will be a while befor I can do my turn

sorry

Quad 20mm seems to work ok too, but I wonder how long they'll last.
