marcdhanna -> 007 - Defensive positions at Outreau aka Stand Fast the Guards (10/23/2016 5:00:23 AM)

Looks like a fun remake of the old ASL classic

Anticipated avenue of attack

Not the best place to stop a tank!

German turn 1 MPH: A little too aggressive, running these stacks in the open...

Heavier commitment by the Germans in the south than expected!

Tough decision after seeing German MPH turn 1 --- withdraw up here, or stick around?

ATG breaks on first shot! GT1 DFPh

marcdhanna -> RE: 007 - Defensive positions at Outreau aka Stand Fast the Guards (10/23/2016 5:10:04 AM)

Forget withdrawal! I'll try an aggressive CC attack on the tank outside of its CA (Brit turn 1 MPh). I did send one 458 back to reinforce the central hill -- barely in the picture

marcdhanna -> RE: 007 - Defensive positions at Outreau aka Stand Fast the Guards (10/23/2016 5:12:44 AM)

BT1 DFPh -- surprise German artillery strike hits his own tank and immobilizes it..... hmm is this like ASL with residual attacks for atty? I'll find out because CC vs immobile tank is (at least in ASL) more effective

marcdhanna -> RE: 007 - Defensive positions at Outreau aka Stand Fast the Guards (10/23/2016 5:14:17 AM)

BT1 CC attack is a failure and later I am hammered by his second strike of atty -- this is situation at end of Turn 1

marcdhanna -> RE: 007 - Defensive positions at Outreau aka Stand Fast the Guards (10/23/2016 5:16:08 AM)

CC attack (sorry wrong order here). The leader failed his PAATC. result Cas reduction on me, and no effect on the tank. Melee!

GT2 looks like bad times headed for my northern group

marcdhanna -> RE: 007 - Defensive positions at Outreau aka Stand Fast the Guards (10/23/2016 5:19:32 AM)

GT2 brutalizing German fire suppresses central group on the hill the crew is broken too-- German positions off-screen here:

marcdhanna -> RE: 007 - Defensive positions at Outreau aka Stand Fast the Guards (10/23/2016 5:21:13 AM)

GT2 MPh -- on top of that, aggressive German moves into the village using tanks as cover! Impressive AI here:

marcdhanna -> RE: 007 - Defensive positions at Outreau aka Stand Fast the Guards (10/23/2016 5:22:29 AM)

In the south though, the German commander is once again moving stacks in the open, which get pulverized:

marcdhanna -> RE: 007 - Defensive positions at Outreau aka Stand Fast the Guards (10/23/2016 5:24:41 AM)

GT2 DFPh One tank knocked out through all the brush hindrances, good shooting. Since one other tank is immobilized and out of position, half of the tank force is dealt with now:

marcdhanna -> RE: 007 - Defensive positions at Outreau aka Stand Fast the Guards (10/23/2016 5:26:02 AM)

Start of BT2 -- things are grim in the north and middle, holding firm in the south

marcdhanna -> RE: 007 - Defensive positions at Outreau aka Stand Fast the Guards (10/23/2016 5:27:05 AM)

BT2 bad time for panic!

marcdhanna -> RE: 007 - Defensive positions at Outreau aka Stand Fast the Guards (10/23/2016 5:28:24 AM)

damn crew is pinned trying to get back to ATG -- which is broken anyway -- gotta try, the guards must stand fast!

marcdhanna -> RE: 007 - Defensive positions at Outreau aka Stand Fast the Guards (10/23/2016 5:29:57 AM)

BT2 final positions -- manage an orderly withdrawal in the north -- very precarious up there

marcdhanna -> RE: 007 - Defensive positions at Outreau aka Stand Fast the Guards (10/23/2016 5:32:24 AM)

GT3 MPh -- confused AI starts this northern tank, then stops it in the same place. Thank the Gods! the other tank is immobilized nearby

marcdhanna -> RE: 007 - Defensive positions at Outreau aka Stand Fast the Guards (10/23/2016 5:33:47 AM)

BT3 start after admin -- all troops are in command! Is there hope I can stop the flood?

marcdhanna -> RE: 007 - Defensive positions at Outreau aka Stand Fast the Guards (10/23/2016 5:34:59 AM)

BT3 FIRE! another tank taken out but there is a lot of German troopers out there. (very tough shot through all that brush. I have to say this ATG crew more than did it's job this day)

Trigger happy AI fires at anything that moves from anyplace it can, until a result is achieved. This is the first chief way, at the moment, to best the AI, because fire can be diverted, freeing up movement elsewhere.

marcdhanna -> RE: 007 - Defensive positions at Outreau aka Stand Fast the Guards (10/23/2016 5:39:19 AM)

BT3 MPh -- humm the Germans have routed forward to capture the objective. Gotta keep 'em DM, so use a corporal with a pistol to scare them! The 458 in command makes it to the hill to help out with the recovering defense there:

marcdhanna -> RE: 007 - Defensive positions at Outreau aka Stand Fast the Guards (10/23/2016 5:41:13 AM)

GT4 Prep fire -- the AI here is emphasizing this crew for the ATG, which is broken. I don't see this as a priority for these shots by the German right now, there are better targets than this:

marcdhanna -> RE: 007 - Defensive positions at Outreau aka Stand Fast the Guards (10/23/2016 5:42:51 AM)

GT4 MPh --- uh oh here it comes, in a daring move the last German tank finds a good spot to support the attack on the hill!

marcdhanna -> RE: 007 - Defensive positions at Outreau aka Stand Fast the Guards (10/23/2016 5:43:56 AM)

GT4 DFPh effective British Def fire but unlike ASL, these brits do cower:

marcdhanna -> RE: 007 - Defensive positions at Outreau aka Stand Fast the Guards (10/23/2016 5:45:21 AM)

BT4 -- KaBooooM that's that, final tank is destroyed.

marcdhanna -> RE: 007 - Defensive positions at Outreau aka Stand Fast the Guards (10/23/2016 5:46:28 AM)

BT4 end -- halfway through, will the Guards hold?
