Sir Uber General Posted December 7, 2001 Share Posted December 7, 2001 Only 2 more sleeps until the action starts! Thanks again for putting this on SuperTed BTW, what sort of fights are these going to be? Attack/Defend or ME? You are also hinting at some very interesting force makeup... flamethrower wars perhaps? I hope I didnt just waste all my luck... just played Armoured Ambush (nice map) as brits - took out out 5 tigers, 2 nashorns and 3 guns for the loss of 1 Firefly, 2 Stuarts, 2 half tracks and a carrier, maybe my best exchange rate ever on the attack Fingers crossed I get that lucky when the fun begins for real!

Seanachai Posted December 7, 2001 Share Posted December 7, 2001 Teach a child in the way they are to go, and they will not stray from it once they are grown... It is a good thing you do here, SuperTed. From even such humble and, frankly, awful beginnings such as this may come many a true Knight of the Cesspool. The gods smile on your endeavours.

However, I may throw in a couple attack/defend for a change of pace. I am using a combination of a historical context for the scenarios and "unique" units and situaions. By unique I mean things are NEVER seen in quick battles and rarely seen in designed scenarios. One of my goals with this tournament is to expose Newbies to many different units and many different situations. <blockquote>quote:</font><hr>Originally posted by Sir Uber General: I hope I didnt just waste all my luck... just played Armoured Ambush (nice map) as brits - took out out 5 tigers, 2 nashorns and 3 guns for the loss of 1 Firefly, 2 Stuarts, 2 half tracks and a carrier, maybe my best exchange rate ever on the attack Fingers crossed I get that lucky when the fun begins for real! <hr></blockquote> You will need to cash in all your luck chips for 2002 to get that lucky.

I should probably cancel the tournament before things get that bad. Thanks for the warning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cpl Carrot Posted December 7, 2001 Share Posted December 7, 2001 Are you in need of any deputies for the Torny Mr Ted? I am still keen to lend a hand if need be Cpl Carrot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuperTed Posted December 7, 2001 Author Share Posted December 7, 2001 Cpl C, Thank you or the offer. Things are going smoothly. I have 1.5 scenarios ready for the first round and expect to have the second one ready by the start time. That will allow players to get started on both, if they would like to do it that way. Other than that, there is not much I can do until the questionnaire deadline. At that time, I'll sort through them and determine who will play with the GV Newbies and who will play with the SuperNewbies. Actually, I did think of something. I would like to have a web page where I could post the brackets for the two tournaments. I may not have enough time to do this. So, if you (or somebody else) would be willing to set up a pair of 16-player brackets online, I would appreciate it. Thanks again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ligur Posted December 7, 2001 Share Posted December 7, 2001 Eeek, I'm eagerly waiting for the battle to begin. All will fear my suicidal attacks, the weak armor of my tanks, the HMG's caught in the open and the FO's who direct artillery on my own troops. /me sadly remembers the German 120mm mortar FO who directed 120mm shells on his own foxhole...

Phantom Captain Posted December 7, 2001 Share Posted December 7, 2001 SuperTed! Me thinks i'm ready! I have been studying my US Army Field Manual to no end, maps are spread to hither and yon, haven't eaten in days and think nothing but armor penetration numbers. LOL. Look what you have created!
