I have been away from this forum and game for awhile.
I have been playing Close Combat:The Bloody First.
So I play my first scenario, Rico's The Liberators and lo and behold, There is no chance to win this scenario.
Rico does it again!
If there is a way to get all 18 VP's in 9 turns, well somebody enlighten me.
Geez!

To win this scenario you have to think like a liberator. You have to sacrifice your weakest units to fire the enemy and then bring your strongest units to destroy them at close range. I certify to you that this scenario is winnable with heavy losses it is true, if you do not succeed it does not matter, it is that you do not have the soul of a liberator.

hi slaphappy :)
the scenarios are getting more advanced , and for myself some seem unwinnable .
but for my skill level ,I don't consider every VP as essential , a minor victory for myself is very acceptable , should I jag a major victory , well ,
I will annoy the missus by dancing around the room :)

but i do find replaying the missions , even if you then have an idea of the enemy positions , gives you a better idea of
what the scenario makers are trying to do , make it as hard as they can for those who know the in`s and out`s of the game .

tonight i played - defensive positions of outreau.

one of the original scenarios , played as the german forces .

i played it 3 times ,

eventually i got a major victory , but the first 2 a british MMG never seemed to lose ROF , the AT guns seemed to not only keep
their ROF but within a couple of shots take out anything that moved .

a lonely british 4-5-8 troop when i did take entrenched positions in the south of the map , broke the first entrenched position ,
and broke the next group when i moved them up :)

he was like some insane SAS unit that sat out in the open and killed any unit that come near him.

the 3rd try was completely different , their AT`s and Mg`s broke down within a couple of turns , my OBA seemed to hit within
a couple of squares where i aimed , and all of a sudden i had a half squad that could move , and not assualt move , next to a group
of 3 - 4-5-8`s with an officer and not break .

In reference to your comment , i don`t think all scenarios can be won from all sides , many are created for the defender or the attacker .
but they are not impossible , there is a lot of time put into developing these scenario`s.

the luck of the god`s will help :)

welcome back slaphappypappy :)

All points well taken.
I finally got a major victory in Dvina, but everything has to happen right.

fuselex,

This is a gut wrenching video! I was moved by its presentation. Chapman saved the lives of his team and more lives in the quick reaction force. An unselfish individual who paid the ultimate price.

Thanks for posting the link!!
