RE: Tiller Operational Campaigns Tournament No. 01 - Partizanka - 07-23-2024 ShipwreckedFool and I are playing 1127_01: Train Now Arriving at Platform 1 from Stalingrad for round two. RE: Tiller Operational Campaigns Tournament No. 01 - LEGXXIIPRPF - 07-24-2024 Smedley and I have started Minsk 44: 0629_01: 5th Panzer Fire Brigade in the second round. (Actually it is 5th Panzer DIVISION).

The term "Fire Brigade" may be uniquely American in origin, or at least English speaking nations. The term means a unit that is frequently kept as a quick reaction force and does not indicate the size of the unit (i.e. Brigade). It's origin refers to actual fire fighters - now called fire departments - that were organized by towns and cities; in military parlance the designated Fire Brigade would respond and put out "fires" (attacks) through swift fire fighting (counter attacks). RE: Tiller Operational Campaigns Tournament No. 01 - ComradeP - 07-25-2024 After some communication issues, Belisarius and I have started #44_1020_07: Leyte - X Corps Beaches. Good luck with round 2 everyone! RE: Tiller Operational Campaigns Tournament No. 01 - ComradeP - 08-06-2024 We've completed our games. Belisarius as Allies: 1064 points. A draw according to the victory dialog, but reported as a minor victory due to the special HTH Victory Conditions for Philippines '44. ComradeP as Allies: 1408 points, a major victory according to the victory dialog and thus also a major victory using the special HTH Victory Conditions. Another close game, with very similar losses by the end. Belisarius as Allies: 900 points from objectives Allied losses: Men: 631, 75 points. Guns: 4, 5 points. Vehicles: 5, 6 points. Air losses: 1, 8 points. Japanese losses: Men: 1856, 240 points. Guns: 18, 18 points. ComradeP as Allies: 1000 points from regular objectives and 272 points from the exit hex for a total of 1272 objective points. Allied losses: Men: 594, 71 points. Guns: 3, 3 points. Vehicles: 2, 1 point. Air losses: 7, 42 points. Japanese losses: Men: 1879, 235 points. Guns: 15, 18 points. I expected that the points from losses would be very similar. When I lost 6 planes during the opening turns, I was worried and restricted my air strikes. Of course, I promptly lost another plane when I targeted a weakened company. The stubborn, defiant, stand of the Japanese controlled by Belisarius made going for the 200 VP in the rear impossible. One of my stacked Japanese units remained undisrupted in that 200 VP hex, preventing the hex from falling. Belisarius also didn't capture one of the 100 VP bunkers as he split his forces in an attempt to capture the 200 VP hex in the rear. As I feared he might be able to capture the 200 VP hex in the rear due to a more successful initial advance, I shifted the focus of the Cavalry Division to the exit objective. Enough units exited the map to compensate for the loss of the objective in the other game, should I have lost it. I also narrowly managed to capture the second bunker hex with the Filipino unit. All in all, another exciting game where both players used different strategies on a small map and ended up with a fairly similar result. |
