As Soviets, he was able to rush 4 companies (not platoons, mind you) of Soviet infantry across a key bridge to secure a major victory location. Only took him 1 turn. To top that off, most of his Солдаты (soldiers) are undisrupted and ready to surge forward...I'm nervous to see what the next turn will bring.
Yes, that was quite a turn! But it was not over 1 turn though, I already got two companies across the turn before, remember? But you threw them back
What got my attention was how you first pushed back a full company into shallow water, then assaulted and captured the lot of them! dizzy
But yes, what you described was uber cool as well. I think it was my forward company that double sped, and made
two succesful extreme assaults going forward. all the way to objective hex. I have never seen anything like that happen.
But given how shell-shocked the enemy forward line typically is in the target area to begin with, and how you often have pretty impressive direct fire support available as well, this battle really goes back and forth as long as you have a few guys available with their bayonets fixed!
I might be wrong though about the assaults, it also could have been the 2nd coy behind that did the latter assault... Must. Remember. Breathe.
