DAR - Clickie-Chasing Coil Contests the Colonel

[Colonel Talvela]

Well, your choice of tiny amount of infantry is risky but courageous. Five platoons for a 2000pts on a moderate trees terrain!

I loaded up a few maps, and typically there are not many trees. maybe because of the farmland setting, but in all the maps I loaded there were no big patches of woods.

Furthermore, you took brits, who are not terminators. I think if your opponent make a numerous infantry choice, your men's task will be hard. We can not even compare a german platoon and a brit platoon value in a woody battle.

I definitely will not be having my infantry fight Coil's infantry. The reason I took the 6 man squads is because I want them for eyes only. I took one vet assault platoon that should be able to handle itself well in a shootout with a german platoon - and I assume I will have to use them to contest one flag.

And all those M8 have not a very high blast value (4 only) to make the difference with a good infantry support.

Actually the M8's have a short barrel 75mm gun with a 52 blast value. If I can keep them alive they will be able to inflict a lot of damage on Coils infantry. But I have to keep them alive.

The only way I will be able to win is to be able to get my M8s in a position to blast Coils infantry. To do that I have to knock out his tanks with my M-10s and my guns. Should be an interesting cat and mouse game.
