Max pts and formations!
funkiwi - ANZACs
minefield - Germans

This game is already well underway, with several casualties on both sides.

Too many tigers to tally! The ANZACs and doing everything they can with their limited collection of US , British and Aussie hardware.

The Germans are trying a Blitzkrieg but they haven't shown any air squads yet, nor infiltrators. They don't have any decent FO's either. (Minefield must've been in a hurry!).

17 pounders are doing the business but they are too few and far between. Shermans sit like fat ducks for plucking. As for the Grants ... river crossing would do more damage to Panzers!

Hummels are raining their bombs down with devastating effects! Luckily, they're mostly off target. And we're managing to spot them and supress them with howitzers and what not.

Some of our commandos have managed to slip behind enemy lines. In some ways, I wish they hadn't. The news is bad. One column of 10 tigers coming from the South. Another is no doubt coming from the North. That isn't counting the Tigers which already prowl the front!

RNZAF are doing a pretty good job of not only spotting, but also potting the odd fascist tank.
Mines, bazookas, flame throwers and grenades will hopefully peel bac. k Nazi numbers before they probe our rear

You will be crushed underneath the Wermacht!

We have hummels, we have 60 Tiger tanks, we have flamethrowing vehicles galore, we have 120 mm mortars, we don't have a FO, we have SS and spec ops, we have recon tanks, well you get the point.

With max points, there isn't enough room on the battlefield. It really is one crazy crazy battle. Only the 17 pounder guns seem capable of taking out a Tiger head on. And with 60 or so Tigers on the field, I could literally space them out a few hexes and drive on into Aussie land (if we could go across the water that is).

While funkiwi decided to use combined arms, I'm using big friggin arms. I did forget (or was unaware of) infilitratorss and I'm saving my planes in reserve. I think we got most of his infilitrators out but a large flammpanzer scouting force is sweeping my backfield.

I think we'll win this one if I can keep the battle straight. No reinforcements for me since we have 100 formations.

waiting for some infantry cover.

We are moving a bit better now. Would help if I had an FO.
Did I mention I want an FO?
