Sergeant Huang Posted July 11, 2000 Share Posted July 11, 2000 After played and won 3 QB with computer, I decided to lose this one to computer this time. I formed a force (which I thought the computer will kill them all): 3 X SS mot infantry squard (vet/crack/elite mixed) 2 X MG (vet/crack) and A two men team of a 240 mm arty spotter. all setting are in normal, with some tree, small hills, ect. I give the computer a rifle Bn, and 3 plooton of engineers. In order to let my men face less enemy when contacted, I decided to shell the enemy force with 240 mm arty first before the gun fight happens. With both good luck and almost perfect timing,...ect. This arty attack became a men slaughter. After the battery fire 4 shells (4 tubes in this battery, since I counted 16 big holes on the ground), the battle ended. The computer suffered 735 casaulties, and 100 men were captured. I suffered no one at all, my infantry haven't even fire a sigle shot yet. I know this is kinda lucky, but, the 240 mm arty is waaayyy toooooo powerful!! ------------------ Sgt. Huang I LOVE my country, but my government sucks.

Fionn Posted July 11, 2000 Share Posted July 11, 2000 Huang, 240mm arty IS devastating. Nothing was unrealistic there except for the fact that no platoon would EVER have a 240mm arty battery in direct support . What you used is more of a Corps or Army level weapons system Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Formerly Babra Posted July 11, 2000 Share Posted July 11, 2000 Just to clarify... You wanted to get beaten so you set yourself up with some of the best troops in the game and gave them the most powerful possible support? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gregory Deych Posted July 11, 2000 Share Posted July 11, 2000 I'm guessing the AI troops were still very bunched up. It happened to me in the first scenario of the Carentan operation, where I advanced through nearly the whole map to find the germans huddled in the corner (all of them in a single hedge quadrangle). I didn't have time to deliver some of those 155s I was saving for a rainy day, unfortunately.... otherwise, I could;ve won it right then and there.

Prof Moriarty Posted July 11, 2000 Share Posted July 11, 2000 Try this one out, 8 300mm rocket spotters elite 24rds, 4 TRP's. VS. a green French rifle Bn. Map about 500X500, very dry, urban area. I can't get the thing to go more then two turns. hehe ------------------ ...to all sergeants anywhen who have labored to make men out of boys.
