ORIGINAL: ChuckBerger Forgive the impertinent question... but haven't you just kicked some ***? It seems like you have surrounded and destroyed many top quality German formations. Whatever difficulties you think you have in terms of a broader front and tired/depleted troops must surely be worse for your opponent. And you must have him demoralised from the recent battles as well. You see strung-out, scattered, depleted Allied formations in sore need of a rest - your opponent sees a tide of unstoppable, constantly replenishing forces, with the threat of amphibious invasions everywhere and he hasn't got the troops to delay much less stop the tide! Charge, good sir! warspite1 [:)] A commander often sees only his own weaknesses and so it is nice to receive a pep talk every now and then - thank-you [:)] As to whether I've kicked serious bottom, I've certainly had some good results but to what extent that has weakened the Germans I can't say as I've never played this scenario, I'm not looking at the other threads and this is a campaign of WWII I probably know least about (the China theatre aside). But you're right and, heeding your impudent advice [:D] I've attacked one turn early at Policastro (I was going to wait for the units off road to be able to join in). The result? A Fallschirmjaeger Regiment evaporates and the Germans lose large numbers of tanks and artillery (which was nice). The town falls to the 21st Tank Brigade - Hussah!! EDIT: I thought Policastro was taken but it appears it was the hex to the southeast. [image]local://upfiles/28156/A0C0C9E872D442B79967BA07C926DFF4.jpg[/image]
