I don't know if Commando Comics were a thing across the pond, but I sure read my share as a kid. So, I believe when you spot a few Tommies, the first thing you shout is "Schweinehunde!" at them.
Then, when you find yourself in a bit of a pickle, it's "Gott im Himmel!"
Next, inevitably, you shout "Argh!"
After that, well, you shout nothing.
Not sure what you shout upon spotting Americans.

RE: Tournament
The starting scenario and line-ups have been posted on the World in Flames REDUX thread in the tournaments forum: https://www.theblitz.club/message_boards...#pid455920
Tanker Tony is out for the allies, first round, so I need an allied volunteer to play the new Axis player, Von Dondo, in an additional game. It will be a different scenario to keep it fair. Any takers?
Dave
Dan Caviness will play Von Dondo as a stand-in for Tanker Tony, in a separate scenario: ** First Battle of Tembien. Thanks Dan!
TankerTony is back and taking over the Tembien scenario, with Axis CIC permission.

RE: Tournament
Guys, when reporting a tournament game don't forget to select the completion dropdown with the name of the tourney (there's just the one). This ensures Big Ivan and I will be notified that there is a new result.
Thanks,
Dave

An update to your update.
The Axis are happy to report Hawk Kriegsman with a major win verses VoteQuimby.
I am sure more Axis victories to follow.

RE: Tournament
With my sad showing against Schwerpunkt75, the axis now take the lead. Nicely played, Alex.
