In the Middle and in the South, my forces seem stuck for the moment, due to the 40mm AA troika on the hilltop in the middle of your lines. One of my cavalry units managed to spot them, so I'll be sending some special deliveries their way very soon! :D

The 40mm plt shoots up some cavarly, then bugs out to relocate.
Now you see them, now you don't :)

Status: offline 		Well, it looks like the Brittish Special Forces are about as useful as their Geman counterpart. All those Sigs have me worried a little. Let's see if you can get some use out of them.

South is holding, for now. Another PzIIIe on the hill destroyed, some casualties among your 88 crews.
North flank falling back and regrouping, desperate for support.
(more 40mm or 8inch would've been nice)

Status: offline 		The Southern front is still in a stalemate, due to the 8 inch howitzers' effect on my troops.

In the center, the Luftwaffe managed to take out the one 40 mm AA gun that failed to bug out on the hill. Foot units are closing in on the two 2 pounders and their vickers MG protector.

In the North, my forces continue their steady advance.

Two more Panzers destroyed down south, big mess in the north.
Looks like the Gemans are setting up another line of advance near the middle as well...

Status: offline 		Well, one of my Pz IIIs took a direct hit from one of your 2 pounders from one hex away, and survived to hose the AT's crew down with its MGs. Another 2 pounder in the South fell victim to my atty. That's about it this turn.

Good to see you back :)
I'll be back in a couple of hours, gotta go eat first.

BTW Should you need more time for your turns, just say so. I don't mind waiting, but I don't like wondering why. I'd rather start up another battle to pass the time between turns ;)

Thing is, I really want to start another game, but I just don't have the time playing more than 2-3 turns a day :(

Some 2pder crews up north really want their gun back.
Only problem is, they managed to get it stuck in a Stug's tracks :D.

Don't 'ya just hate it when that happens? :D

In the North, my forces have stumbled on the hiding place of a couple of 25 pounders in the woods.

In the center, my cavalry and panzers eliminated a HMG and inflicted heavy casualties on a HQ unit.

In the South, my forces are still trying to get their sh*t together. That 8 incher that keeps pounding them is a pain in the butt! :mad:

One of the 25pders you saw took out a PzII.
Lots of shooting, few hits.
I'd better think of something soon, or I'm gonna be in trouble.

Status: offline 		Yes, your 25 pounders are in deep sh*t! One down, one with serious casualties and a couple of unwelcome visitors. The other two identified and in line for some Krupp steel. One British sniper, a platoon HQ, and a couple of crews were eliminated in the North and center as well.

In the South one Cruiser MkII CS went by by. Lots of shooting down there, but not much effect. One Matilda took a direct hit from a 150mm gun and just shrugged it off! :eek:

The South remains static, in spite of several Matildas itching to move forward. :D

In the South, the battle of attrition continues with the destruction of another Matilda II and another 2 pounder.

Not much to report in the Center.

Lost another Mattie but took two Sigs and that 6/2 flak in exchange.
The north is yours, and it looks like you're in control of the map center. I see you found a good spot for more tillie-killers...
Just stay there until the 8incher crews get back from their tea ;)

No more Matildas have died this turn, however a 40mm AA did go down in flames! :D

Status: offline 		My surprise in the north paid off :D One Stug, one PzII crew and a 6/2 AA. Wanna try and take revenge?

In the south, three Matties are facing down a lone 88 without transport. A FAT quad tries to provide some cover, but the wreckage doesn't smoke enough. Desperation move, or have I just been toying with you all this time? You'll find out soon enough...

Status: offline 		In what turned out to be my last turn, my forces did indeed take some revenge on the Brits! Two Cruiser tanks, an AOP carrier, and a Bren carrier fell in the North.

While capturing the British rear area v hexes, a Pz III eliminated another 40mm AA gun and my forces exchanged fire with some foot units around the hexes.

In the South, another Matilda II went up in flames.

The final disposition of the battle was a draw. Not great, but far better than the surrender/crushing defeat of our last battle! My password, btw, was 'doandoon' for this battle.

Rematch?:D

**** AI, just as my reinforcements arrived...
Take a look at the map and breathe a sigh of relief, password is 'absent'.

Rematch is cool. Any suggestions?

Status: offline 		Yes, timing is everything, as they say. Had I not split off the Pz III, the Flakwagon, and the cavalry to go for the remaining v hexes, I would indeed have been in deep!

I'd like to try a German assault from the sea. Say Crete, Malta, or Norway against the British. Of course, that would depend on finding an appropriate map for such a thing.

Also, now that I hear we can play campaigns, how about a WWII campaign, Germans against the British, starting in France, 1940? Just a thought.

Otherwise, I'm open to suggestion!

Campaign would be nice. IIRC we'd have to set up two battles, so both players get to be player 1.
Not too sure I want to be the Brits if the AI keeps butting in like that. How about Germans vs Soviets?

OTOH a German amphib assault sounds intriguing....
we could always 'borrow' one of the Normandy beach maps for this.

Sounds good to me! Do you want to set it up, or should I give it a try? I wonder if the German OOB includes sunscreen and surfboards? :D

BTW I think you're supposed to have a 3:1 advantage on the attack.
Mind if I bring some mines and fixed installations?
