RE: Open Team Battle - Round 2
Our plan was more defense oriented, which paid dividends up north, as we were able to react quickly to your ‘right hook’ and contain most of it. But when it came time for our counter attack in the centre, we also suffered from disorganization and failed to get enough weight, timing and speed behind our punch.

North
We rushed the bulk of our reserves up north to contain your attack. The north hung in the balance for a while, but once we had KO’d the Panther and T34 I felt the attack was no longer a serious threat. I had hoped to damage you more decisively here, but you failed to press your attack, and I felt we were too weak and too spread out to make a serious counter attack in the north.
This sector continued to require quite a lot of our forces, particularly as you’d got some units into the north east. Which is part of the reason for our failure in the centre.

Centre
We didn’t ‘buy’ your feint in the centre. We had enough intel (mostly from the RAF) that it seemed you had poor quality troops and little armour in that sector. Which is one of the reasons we attacked here in the second half. But our attack on Hill 38 was doomed to failure, because of the reasons mentioned above, but also because we failed to control the flanks. I think if we’d gone into Ranville woods before you got in there, then we would have had a real chance at the Hill.

South
Our plan also called for a light weight defense of the south. The terrain down south was easy to defend; though at one point I was paranoid that you may drop a lot of smoke on one of the large fields, and come charging across.
I was ‘pulling my hair out’ when Gila blatantly ignored our plan/orders, appeared to go rogue :rolleyes: and attacked up the paved road losing two of the three tanks we had in the south! I guess commanders have to deal with this sort of thing. He’s on your side next time :)

After that debacle, we pulled back along the paved road so our troops wouldn’t be too exposed to artillery. Then we stonked the road with artillery before slowly counter attacking to recapture our v-hex.
