Hunting For Bug,Unbalanced?


Recommended Posts

Spoilers*****************************************

Im just getting done with Hunting for Bug in a ladder h2h match.My opponent picked the scenario and elected to attack.I read that it was playable in all modes.Now that the games is 99% over and my forces are decimated. I come to find that the attacking force had at its disposal 16 T-34,7 T-70,and over 2 companies of infantry.

My defending force is 2 Stugs, 2 88's AA guns,1 co of Inf,and arty support.This sounds like a German against AI game only, defenitley not suitable for h2h.Does anyone else think I had no prayer against a decent human player?

The 1 88 got spotted and taken out with one shot at a 1000 meters by a t70, I know, bad luck.Anyway I don't think this scenario was very balanced,it may be well represented from an historical standpoint though.

The Blitz has H2H results posted for this one as one German victory, one draw, and two Soviet victories. The German also has heavy artillery support and the Soviets have none. I am not sure the StuGs can be penetrated from the front by the T34 either at longer ranges. If the German conducts a fighting withdrawal then the German should be able to run out the clock and force a draw. If the German remains in their forward positions then it probably could go bad for them depending upon what the Soviet does because the Soviet force doesn't all arrive at once and can be frittered away by an incautious Soviet commander.
