Have Pity on us Soldiers PBEM - wulfir - 07-09-2008 The PLA forces under Colonel Mao-wulfir moves out for the Great Adventure; war with Japan - the enemy of old..., morale is high, the troops know the Japanese have more modern gear but they do not have the numbers, the sher mass, of the Peoples Liberation Army... ...and in numbers there is confidence... Only the quiet Chief of Staff of Mao-wulfirs command is reserved about the coming war, remembering a verse from the classical age... Which plant is not brown? Which man is not sad? Have pity on us soldiers. Treated as though we were not men. - Shi Jing (Book of Songs) Indeed, the Chief of Staff thinks to himself; Cannon-fodder forward march! RE: Have Pity on us Soldiers PBEM - retired from gaming - 07-10-2008 Ulf, WW2 or MBT ??? Turn 2 - wulfir - 07-10-2008 Corporal Wu watched in silence as the smoking debris of the Japanese helicopter swirled to the ground. He had been too eager and fired too soon, but the missle had hit - and that was what mattered... Report of the success was quickly passed along the chain of command. At the command post Mao-wulfir grinned with poorly conceled satisfaction. His origin lay in the army anti-aircraft units and as such he considered the AA defences crucial, almost decisive... The Chief of Staff, concerned that the commander put too much into one lucky SAM-shot, repeated the report from the scouts; enemy forces have reached the Temple area. "Not good, but no reason to panic just yet", the Colonel grunted. (Maciej, it's MBT, obviously :) ) RE: Have Pity on us Soldiers PBEM - wulfir - 07-11-2008 Enemy attack-helicopters appear - American made Apaches - and open fire, knocking out one PLA APC. AA gunners manages to bring one enemy attack helicopter down, but his wingman slips away undamaged..., Chinese troops scramble past the burning wreckage of one of the nations most modern type APCs... Reports reach HQ - enemy forces have reached the areas known as the Hut, the Temple and the Emperor's Tomb... Turn 4 - wulfir - 07-12-2008 The Apache dodge bursts of 35mm AA fire and takes out another Chinese APC..., meanwhile Chinese Forward Observers call down an artillery strike on enemy tanks near the Emperor's Tomb knocking out one of the enemy Type 90s...
