"Poor Old Sots destroy initiative by preaching holy routine. There is little that they hate more than innovation, especially innovation that produces better results than the old routines. Improvements always make those that think they are at the top of the heap look inept. Who enjoys appearing inept?"
- Treatise on Innovation in CM Warfare
There is a song I would like to introduce to you, that often rollicks through my mind when playing the opening turns of a CM game. It goes something like this:
"Scooby dooby doo, where are you?"
Well, ole Scoob is out in the open now, looking for his Scooby snacks...
Sgt. (Adam) Sadler gets on the horn to the howitzer jockies, (after first calling back to HQ to order a bucket of Popeye's chicken... mmmm.... love that Popeyes...) and convinces them with the lure of fresh biscuits and deep fried dirty bird to move in to attack the lone panzer that has escaped the wroth of the M-10 platoon.
The 3 panzers in pic a nic basket valley can coordinate with their cousin, panzer unit 335 to move on my M-10's... in the background, another SiG 150 trundles across the map to help out with the panzer pack (looks like Le monstrous and smelly Le Coil has bought a whole platoon of the Grille's... one is still missing) I'm thinking Le insidious and spiteful Coil wishes to change a few poopy diapers in the panzer waggons and mount an attack on my TD's... the 150 can park an extremely large shell into the midst of those M-10's and cause real damage, so I cannot let him join the fray.
Hopefully, the howitzer jocks haven't been into the Kentucky Bourbon much this afternoon, and one of them can pot the lone panzer in the side (I'm hoping that the ascerbic and hateful Coil has covered arced him), and then the M-10's can retreat to pop up somewhere else unexpected as my infantry platoon moves up to get better control of the east side of the map, and you never know, on a hail mary chance, get to huck a demo charge at a squarehead.
Don't worry all of you who are rooting against me... these little machinations almost never work...
Cheers!
(you can't spell ELO without)
LETO
P.S. You can't spell EGOTISTICAL KNOW IT ALL ARSE without "Leto" as well... trust me, its complicated, but very true.
