Simple question -- which is your favorite campaign? I haven't played a campaign in about 6 months and am wondering which I should play next.

**crickets**

The latest camp Wolves seems to be a tough one with many new situations that are different from the originals.

Depends on what you want.

The American campaign is big and brash, you know, like Americans. Mostly NATO defensive.

The West German School Teacher campaign is the West Germans mostly on the defensive.

The Soviet campaign is the Soviet formations on the attack.

The Wolves campaign is the 2nd West German campaign. This is a mix of medium sized engagements with a WG Brigade. There are attack and defend scenarios in the mix. This is the toughest of the 4.

Pick which one fits your style of fighting the best.

Good Hunting.

That's the one I'm running now. Definitely interesting situations, but I do like something with more "traditional" tactical situations.




Mad Russian -> RE: Best campaign? (8/16/2014 3:53:41 PM)

All 3 other campaigns are more traditional.

Good Hunting.

I'm just starting the 3rd of 5 battles in the Black Rats campaign by Tazak. I'm counter-attacking and my reinforcements are Battlegroup OTS with the Cap Darwin and Mad Russian companies (among others). So far it is very enjoyable - I vote thumbs up.

I haven't played the 2nd German campaign yet.

I've been enjoying the Wolves campaign. A lot of ducks to shoot. A pretty good, but outnumbered, friendly force.

But then Scenario 5 made me mad. Setup zones for the two sides in these scenarios should never be within LOS of each other. Because many of the enemy units were quite close to me, my carefully planned engagement areas were for naught -- the enemy basically got to skip them, quite unrealistically. I lost two whole platoons of my Leopards in the first 11 minutes of the battle because the enemy started so close.




Mad Russian -> RE: Best campaign? (8/28/2014 3:35:25 AM)

Battle 5 of the campaign got all turned around. I'm working on getting it straightened out.

Between all the corrections and updates we did the 5th scenario of the campaign seems to have gotten crossed in the shuffle.

I'm working on getting that corrected.

I agree with you. I don't normally put units in LOS of each others starting areas. This one shouldn't have either.

Thanks.

Good Hunting.

Thanks. I died so quickly (less than two hours to get to 30% combat power) that it ended up being a contested battle, and now I've moved on to the next one.




LittleDogmaOne -> RE: Best campaign? (8/29/2014 6:09:28 AM)

Ah, now that explained...I couldn't figure how did Soviet found us so quickly, and tried to repel Soviet Hordes. I couldn't find a perfect ground for Leopard 2 with perfect LOS to counterattack Soviet's attack, and couldn't able to hold the ground. [:(]

I had to put this battle 5/7 on hold due to other PBEM opponent requested me to play John Tiller's Sealion 1940 ; )

Don't worry, Red Bear, be patient, we are coming! We are coming!
