Our parting shot for the turn was to kill yet another of their recon. This recon is HEER though and that's a bit concerning.

Good Hunting.

Here are our positions at the end of the execution phase.

Unless there are new orders I will continue to press our Task Forces into the areas we have previously identified as our objectives.

Good Hunting.

I am going to run the next turn this evening with our original objectives. We have West German units moving all over the map. It's time to engage some of those.

Good Hunting.

This looks friggin' awesome, guys. There are *no* Platoon-level cold war wargames out there (talking for PC, of course).

Man, I can't wait to relive my high school days of playing Mechwar '77 and Red Star/White Star :).

Now, if only someone would do 1979's "The Next War", I'd be in Cold War Gone Hot Heaven (yes, I'm playing the TOAWIII scenario until that glorious, if unlikely day). I happen to think '79 was the best "correlation of forces" that the Pact ever had. It was all downhill from there.

But in '79 we were definitely asleep...

Kondor - Our game data goes back to 79. I would bet you could make some scenarios.

Hell yeah I could! I could even convert over some from those dusty old wargames of mine. Let's see how those M60A1's and 2's fare against some T-64A action! I don't think it'll be real pretty for NATO. No depleted uranium/Chobham armor to hide behind, no Apache choppers, no M1's, TOW-2's, or IIR sights. Nobody really had IC's down-pat just yet, so the Russkies were pretty even on the tech side. Boy, that didn't last long.

Just toe-to-toe with the Russkies with our worn-out hand-me-down armor, demoralized 70's-era 'Nam burnout infantry and some classic rock on our side!

Oh, and the USAF. That might even it up a bit...

PS - I obtained permission from my wife to refer to her erstwhile socialist comrades as "Russkies". Since my new son is 1/2 Russian, no disrespect is intended or implied!

As we start turn 8 we see that there is a West German column just outside Hellarn. The battle is about to begin. Recon is mostly over.

Now it's time to FIGHT!!

The advantage is to us. Most of those units seem to be Territorial Army and only a few of them HEER. That's a good thing for us.

Good Hunting.

kondor999,

I think you will really enjoy this game. I have been beta testing since last July. Hard to believe a year, and I have not tired of it (even thru all the bugs and changes). Rob and Jim have put a lot of work into this game to get it working fairly smooth. Some of Steve's scenarios have potential of being classics--and will cause you to loose sleep and hair. It is not what I call a "beans and bullet" game. In other works it does not bog down in details of counting every bullet and item of supply. It has a good balance between realism and abstraction. It places you in the roll of a commander and forces you to make hard decisions. AI is not perfect (no AI is), but it will give you a good fight--and will knock you off balance at times. They have an exciting plans for this game as long as people support it. Yeah, I am a fan boy.

This time we will get 29 minutes of turn execution.

We'll see what that looks like when the smoke clears!

Good Hunting.

Now that the forces are starting to come together things should get bloody.

Here we kill 2 WG recon.

We have caught the West Germans flat footed around Helmern by pushing our tanks up from the south of the town.

The West Germans respond with a Multiple Rocket Launcher (MRL) strike!

We were really lucky and suffered no losses in that strike.

While the West Germans are striking back in the south we hit the WG column east of Helgarn and they take more losses.

The tank battle at Helmern is going our way. To kill 3 of theirs in one action is good!

We need to move into Helmern now!!

Here is a comparison of an MRL attack (left) vs a regular artillery (right). The MRL foot print is much larger.

When we get the opportunity we can even kill some of those.

The WG's are losing far more tanks than we are. The only concern is they are M48's and not Leo's.

The same unit gets hit immediately again.

Notice the different strength values on the truck between the two combats. The previous screen shot shows the truck having 11 equipment in the unit. This one shows it's dropped to 7.
