RE: GREEN LIGHT TOURNEY - PoorOldSpike - 08-08-2008 RESULT JUST IN MIKEY 69, POS 31 (Tac win for Mikey) Mikey's panzer columns roll inexorably towards the Russian hilltop perimeter (circled) but were beaten by the clock.. ----------------------------------------------------------- HALFTIME SCORES (The second half will be the mirror rematches- also known as 'payback time'- after which the scores of the two games will be combined, so these halftime rankings shouldn't be taken too seriously) Mikey (Ger)= plus 38 RT Pioneer (Ger)= minus 8 Risnervich (Russ)= minus 20 DasTiger (Russ)= minus 42 GAMES FINISHED SO FAR 4/66 (Tourney ends midnight Sept 30th) ------------------------------------------------------- Resting.. And recuperating.. RE: GREEN LIGHT TOURNEY - Mikey_FGM - 08-08-2008 I played it cautiously, maybe overly so... I wasn't able to take advantage of the extremely successful Stuka attack a couple turns ago... Most of POS's tanks had a dead commander, so they would have been easy meat for my Panzers... But to get to them, I would have had to fast move through the hilltop defenses, and probably suffer a few dead tanks to the AT guns there... I concluded it wasn't worth the cost, and opted to have my tanks hunt from the woods to the hilltop... All told, I only lost a single tank... I'll be interested to see how my Tac Vic holds up... RE: GREEN LIGHT TOURNEY - PoorOldSpike - 08-09-2008 RESULT JUST IN POS 34, ANDRE 66 (Tac win for Andre) 7 of my panzers advanced to the hill in the background and were butchered there (see earlier post #157), then on the last turn Andre sent this lone T-34 to seize the woods flag but I had a spare panzer in reserve to knock it out. Although I ended up with 4 flags to Andre's 2, the price was far too heavy- a total of 11 wrecked panzers.. ----------------------------------------------------------- HALFTIME SCORES (The second half will be the mirror rematches- also known as 'payback time'- after which the scores of the two games will be combined, so these halftime rankings shouldn't be taken too seriously) Mikey (Ger)= plus 38 Andre (Russ)= plus 32 RT Pioneer (Ger)= minus 8 Risnervich (Russ)= minus 20 DasTiger (Russ)= minus 42 GAMES FINISHED SO FAR 5/66 (Tourney ends midnight Sept 30th) ------------------------------------------------------- Resting.. And recuperating.. RE: GREEN LIGHT TOURNEY - PoorOldSpike - 08-09-2008 COMBAT FOOTAGE- The Hill CMant's Russian squad in the hut takes on my whole panzer group and blows the tracks off one, I never even knew he was there til he was spotted slinging his fatal egg out the window. As fighter pilots say about dogfighting- 'It's the one you don't see that gets you'.. Needless to say I should have had infantry up with the tanks to flush out any brown bunnies, but they're still coming up.. RE: GREEN LIGHT TOURNEY - PoorOldSpike - 08-09-2008 COMBAT FOOTAGE- The Hill As my panzers form into line abreast formation for the final drive through the trees down to the Volga, Mad Baron's Sturmovik entertains them with a fusillade of 4 rockets.. The missiles impact among the panzers but the German machines get off relatively lightly with nothing but one damaged gun.. RE: GREEN LIGHT TOURNEY - PoorOldSpike - 08-10-2008 COMBAT FOOTAGE- The City My halftrack comes storming into town on only turn 3, its MG wickedly lashing Mikey's newly-arrived Russians.. But the Russian flame guy refuses to be cowed despite the tracer whipping past his ears and calmly cooks the halftrack.. RE: GREEN LIGHT TOURNEY - Mikey_FGM - 08-10-2008 Quote:Mikey's halftrack comes storming into town on only turn 3, its MG wickedly lashing the newly-arrived Russians.. It was your Half-Track, POS. At the end of this turn, your Stuka arrived, and a single bomb landed right on target, making mince meat of... 3 full squads, 1 plt HQ, 1 57mm ATG, 1 37mm AA, 1 Flame Team, 1 Maxim MG... 34 casualties all told... RE: GREEN LIGHT TOURNEY - PoorOldSpike - 08-10-2008 Ah now I remember.. RE: GREEN LIGHT TOURNEY - PoorOldSpike - 08-12-2008 COMBAT FOOTAGE- The Woods Kevman's panzers overun the Russian position.. RE: GREEN LIGHT TOURNEY - PoorOldSpike - 08-14-2008 COMBAT FOOTAGE- The City "Sorry we haven't got a red carpet bub, will this do instead?" asks the Russian head of the reception committee as he gives DasTiger's panzer a warm welcome.. |
