Patgarret Posted December 12, 2014 Share Posted December 12, 2014 Now, bear with me for few second. Scenario: Assault, the usual, I will spend my life on this one till I succeed. The hill is secured. I got two entire platoons on both sides. The hill with the AT gun has been pounded and poses no threat. The fuel depot has been pounded and destroyed I have two T34 on the left tip of the hill 400 waiting for any upcoming german tank; they got good view. I also have 4 antitank team hidden in the trees nearby. 25 minutes to the end everything goes down the drain. A tiger comes by, my T34 miss big time and the Tiger kill them both, then proceeds to exterminate the antitank team. My rage mounts. IA amass forces around the tiger. So I take a scout and call down artillery on that area, using the M1931. M1931 fires and goes completely off target pounding the vicinity of the other hill, the one the player starts by. I got a ton of useless soldiers there...who get completely exterminated. No shot land on the "tiger zone". Cease fire: I get no points for the hill 400 which I occupy entirely...there are maybe a couple of sdkfz nearby but I got both the sides with around men. Ragequit. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oddball-47 Posted December 12, 2014 Share Posted December 12, 2014 Dang, if it's generating a "rage quit", I've got to play it! What's the name of the scenario? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patgarret Posted December 13, 2014 Author Share Posted December 13, 2014 "assault". Just beaten with a major victory...apparently tigers can be beaten if taken 1:3 in close quarters by t34... But this is a tough one in my opinion...still I have aroumd 10 completed scenarios under my belt, so Id like to hear more experienced points of view here... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fatehunter Posted December 13, 2014 Share Posted December 13, 2014 I found this one really easy the third time I played it and knew exactly where to place the arty and where to wait in hiding for the tiger. Who counts the first few times in a scenario anyways. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Patgarret Posted December 14, 2014 Author Share Posted December 14, 2014 Yes I reckon real mastery in this game is achieved when you win a mission very first try. Following tries you got a big advantage 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlexUK Posted December 14, 2014 Share Posted December 14, 2014 yes, I agree, as a general principle, I do think, however, that some scenarios are practically unwinable first time through (courage and fortitude.....). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LUCASWILLEN05 Posted December 14, 2014 Share Posted December 14, 2014 Do a Rotmistrov. Tell Stalin that the Germans had dozens of Tigers and Panthers. And remember that your Commissar is Nikita Khruschev. Have everyone believing your myth for the next 60 years or so until the fall of the Soviet Union (because the truth is so politically embarrassing) by which time it no longer matters/ And you might just escape the Penal Batalon as well as the Gulag. And when the cushy training job comes up in a few months you can safely be moved sideways! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
