I don't.
But, he is my student, and has asked to fight one! I would be remiss if I did not strive to teach him!
Goblin
PS- He wanted me to take the Brits, lol. He has alot to learn about the game, lol.

Don't get schooled by your student, hit him hard and fast, then make him come back for more.

If I am schooled by my student, it means I did a good job, eh? LOL! It would be a good thing for Hawk to beat me.
Yet... I agree with you, G. He must be crushed.

Ok....
One, the year is 1938, so no Catricide here. No East Germans either. Just innocent training manuevers amongst comrades.
Two, the map name is NA Villages-RR (WBW), sorry for misnaming.
Three, are you in H2H?
Four, restarted it. The victory hexes were point per turn hexes, and most were already mine. That is a huge advantage Hawk, and my fault, because I forgot to check them. Now they are regular hexes. On the plus side, you can rebuy, if you didn't like the first time out, lol.
Goblin
Ok!!!! Take 2

Hmmm. My 10% artillery number and your 10% artillery number appear to be different....
Three batteries of 150mm OB guns tore into the town on the opening salvo, accompanied by a battery of 81mm mortars! Uh-oh, I'm a little outgunned, but push on.
Immediate AT gun fire from hidden 88mm positions greet my Krad (M/C) units. A 37mm ATG adds itself to the fray on the northern street of the village. All are engaged by Krad units. Two personnel shelters are spotted also, but don't have any infantry loaded into them?!?

Hawk, those protect your infantry from overhead attacks like arty, if you load infantry into them, unless I am mistaken....
Several 8-rad FO vehicles are spotted, along with a PzIIIe. Our start lines were very close due to the 9 visibility, and the fight is on already!
Goblin
Sorry

Tank combat! Classic desert warfare time! I killed a PzIIIe, but had a PzIIc savagely wounded (twice) by it first. 20mm rounds smashed throught the enemy's front turret, and we draw first blood in the armor duel.
Hawk has flame-thrower troops in the town already! They nuked one of my Krad's....
A couple of those dreaded 88mm ATG's have fallen, and some 37mm ATG's too. More importantly, my Krads are finding them and letting us nuke them before they kill my tanks.
Hawk, you could cancel manuevers (hit F9 to send the message to HQ), and declare blue team the winner. Then we could all have some schnapps!
Goblin:mad:

Wow 150mm!!!!

We have House to House in the center of the Village . With both Northern and Southern sides under direct attack..
Next time i will position those 88mm alittle closer to the Back..:rolleyes: :rolleyes:
Now how many of those did i buy again...
