The Ai is what it is. A human (or even a shark for that matter) is a different proposition.
The AI doesn't plan. It isn't sneaky. The AI's only tactic is a head-on charge.
You'll find out. Don't be discouraged when you do. Everybody you will play had the same learning curve.
You're very kind, but I just may be Butra's 4th victim. :kill: He's already dispatched 2 humans according to his OP.
At least I can promise to put up a good fight.
The RAF turned up! The Spitfire pilot spotted a couple of halftracks in a field and promptly dropped a 500lb bomb a good distance from them. Perhaps he was just trying to give them a good scare!
Anyway, various companies report seeing over half a dozen Panther tanks in the north, centre and south; along with numerous halftracks and infantry.
Corp. Snowdon's infantry section ambushed a halftrack and knocked out some infantry it was carrying; and then Lt Swift's Cruiser troop engaged the halftrack and two nearby Panthers. After a lot of exchanged shots that mostly bounced off the Panthers, one of the Panthers was slightly damaged by a lucky shot to the side turret. The halftrack was also KO'd. Snowdon did lose at least one man.
No German artillery came in this turn, so it looks like they decided to shift it.
