From the posts I've read, it seems I'm the last person in the world to be playing LV. But still, I enjoy it. The scenarios really challenge my pea brain. But I have a question about scenario 6, "Vebber Takes the Point." (Node 14, Scen 42) During the first turn I took the VH at the bridge and held it throughout the game. I also ended the game controlling all the VH's in the town. I also controlled the VH in the road (eastern part of the apboard) for about the last five turns. I eliminated every Russian unit on the map, and lost one halftrack, one truck and a few individual soldiers, no other complete units. I'm playing the Generals' Edition, 8.4 vanilla.
The end of the game was a draw, 1783 to 892. By my count I should have received 1900 points from the VH at the bridge, another 800 or so for the VH's in the town, 500 more for the VH on the road, more for killng the Russians, and more for exiting all my units except the Vebber unit, 3 or 4 guns and 3 or 4 trucks.
Why didn't I get more points?
The Russians eliminated 70 to 90 points of my units and never controlled any of the "points per turn" VH's, and none of the VH's at the end of the game. How did they get 892 points?
I wouldn't complain, but my commanding officer was extremely critical after the battle. Now I'm defending Dubno, and it's a little daunting to see over 100 Russian tanks coming straight at you. (I tried to get help from one of the Stuka's, but instead of attacking the KV I had hoped for, he blew up a BT-2). SP is the best game of its type around, and I'm just starting to really get into it.
I was hoping to find a thread or two dealing with the playing of LV. Maybe I waited too long. Thanks in advance for whatever help I can get.
