"Thunder in the North" Mirror Tournament - During / After Action Reports

[Crossroads]

Great news,

Now we are four!

Let us wait say until next weekend to see if anyone else founds out this to be their cup of tea as well.

I now added a version a3 of the Vuoksi scenario for downloading. Please have a look at it.

Based on the playtesting going on, the Axis player will have to walk a highwire, choosing whether to defend all areas or concentrate on some of it only, and to ensuring any river crossings not considered are destroyed - while not allowing themselves to be trapped and annihilated.

The Allied player has a strict schedule to follow, and it can get a bit chaotic at time. Extreme Assault is a very powerful utility here, with lots of units available for repeated assaults, having had bombers, artillery, and tanks soften the target first. And once they reach the strategic high ground of the southern shores, I was really intrigued to find out what a significant advantage it indeed provides for river crossing - just like the history books told me.

So meanwhile, new players please join in!

Across River Vuoksi is a short and brutal river crossing that I believe has potential to be a really fun scenario as we get the balance & points tested via this tournament.

I'd really like to see six players here before starting this up! Two more needed. Anyone?

Edit: here's the completed medal set for the Tourney:



- Liberty Cross 3rd Class with Swords, Oak Leaf for winner, and (decided to be generous here!) for runner-up as well
- Liberty Cross 3rd Class with Swords for participants
