Judge T reminds Beadleto that he is just a puppet

[Colonel Talvela]

Turn 8 Orders - Russians
email from Beadleto:
Yah. Sure.

So do you think you can manage to drop rockets on yourself in the German one too?

Now, Pete's previous email about surrendering makes a little more sense, if he actually does think I dropped my rockets on myself. I suppose it is possible that Pete didnt realize that the German rockets dont all get fired in 1 turn. But even that seems unlikely.

Anyway, I order 4 light tanks to converge on the lone Panther and hope to finish him off. I consider sending my t34 flamer on a flanking move as well, but decide against it.

Turn 8 Action - Russians

Well it is a good thing I didnt send my flamer on a flanking run. Turn 8 starts and almost immediately I spot three more panthers hiding behind some trees on my side of the map. I almost walk a sniper right on top of them.

I get a few penetrations on the panther, but the turn ends with it still showing as alive. One of my stuarts took an 88 shell from a nashorn, but lived (quite amazing) - although it is gun damaged.
