GT 5 and GT 6 -- all down the line, the Germans shoot, rather than scoot: [image]local://upfiles/53978/17ED3964E126478596CB54EC86F7657D.jpg[/image]

Start of BT 6. The Germans have advanced, but they are far away from some of these objectives given the time limit of 8 turns. [image]local://upfiles/53978/5352689BDC624949921CC1945BF829DC.jpg[/image]

BT 6 prep -- I had a hard time recovering this MMG on the hill. Could really use some possession of it now, German stax are in the open: [image]local://upfiles/53978/C76CA6F62EE94CBF865A486047D1D350.jpg[/image]

BT 6 MPh -- reinforcing the central position. [image]local://upfiles/53978/4EDC863E475649B894D44E46065A7A95.jpg[/image]

BT 6 rout phase -- example here is the leader stuck after routing one hex, not permitted to run further as would be expected [image]local://upfiles/53978/295581CC3F884F72806D5C4799BFBC70.jpg[/image]

BT 6 APh Decide to challenge the northern objective to keep pressure off the central hill [image]local://upfiles/53978/96AB0B7C9E6240949BC217F01D1EA477.jpg[/image]

GT 7 -- -the enemy decides to fire all along the line, and does not move at all. Basically this will sow up the game for me! [image]local://upfiles/53978/12E87CA56968435CB606397BC608F14E.jpg[/image]

GT 7 DFPh -- this northern squad on the objective holds firm and breaks up the German 9-2 stack at a critical juncture! [image]local://upfiles/53978/6E72079013E34B3C9E409EB92484C178.jpg[/image]

Start of BT 7 -- the British 9-2, having been broken again, rallies everyone back here in the nick of time, and will get back into position up on the hill (if not to find that bloody MMG!) [image]local://upfiles/53978/BC5943CB9A934DFBAD8A534AE5CD2383.jpg[/image]

BT 7 prep -- fire goes to keep DM on the 9-2 stack as I am going to try and keep this objective now. I guess the decision not to withdraw was the right one, in spite of the ghastly CC attack on the tank in the middle of an artillery bomboardment[:-] [image]local://upfiles/53978/0D9F9A82BCCE46D488011FCD30464B19.jpg[/image]

BT 7 MPh -- the AI fired all it could at this minor leader until it broke, freeing up key units to move without threat: [image]local://upfiles/53978/09092CF08C1A474C80C1245A7C361A9A.jpg[/image]

BT 7 rout -- now see here that in this case, the leader was allowed to rout three hexes through the woods...[&:] [image]local://upfiles/53978/B6A6A8B5F6EE44BC9140B8EB9701ED08.jpg[/image]

BT 7 APh -- aggressive Guards advance in the north to secure the objective -- and find some more units to DM! [image]local://upfiles/53978/C5B5C526322F4F29B281DFA052B57348.jpg[/image]

marcdhanna -> RE: 007 - Defensive positions at Outreau aka Stand Fast the Guards (10/23/2016 6:07:58 AM)
GT 8 and end of the game -- The Germans fire, but again fail to move, game over! [image]local://upfiles/53978/D5A7F57D68CA4CF6B0689497B8343F55.jpg[/image]

marcdhanna -> RE: 007 - Defensive positions at Outreau aka Stand Fast the Guards (10/23/2016 6:12:32 AM)
This is very strange, though -- 24 VP to 1 VP, and this is considered a draw? Should be a major Brit victory since the Germans didn't get one objective and got their azzes kicked. [&:] Ah well, fun game. So, the second major factor for AI victory is how to teach it to fire and move, and fire more selectively at units that are moving. I have no idea how to accomplish that, so first let me [&o] to the designers who attempt to do these things. Much gratitude for this game. I still love ASL but more and more..... !
