aka_tom_w Posted September 24, 2001 Share Posted September 24, 2001 OK so I sit down for a good game against the AI I pick the Allies and choose a 2000 pt armour battle. Late war April 44 dawn and overcast I take the British and buy one sherm 76 and 3 95 mm churchills and a couple of dailmers with 40 mm AP load. I get all of 1 round of tungsten! What do I meet on the battle field?? GET this! At first I see what I think is one Tiger. (?) next an other tiger ? then another! OK I think that can't be so bad at least they are slow Then the first one turns out to be a Vet JagdTiger with the 128 mm main weapon then the second one turns out to the the same thing! Holy Crap I think I'm in it NOW! Meanwhile the Sherm gets immbolized in a decent hull down position and I loose two churchills to turret pentration because they are both in hull down positions from the 128 mm main weapon Then the third Tiger (?) ALSO turns out to be ANOTHER Vet JagdTiger!! I fought them hard and did my best to flank them I KO'd one with the Sherm and KO'd another with a very lucky PIAT round. the third was used VERY wisely by the AI and proved indestructable. BUT I sat on the two VL's and they both remained undisputed at the end of 30 minutes and a scraped out a 51% minor victory. BUT 3 Jagdtigers??? Talk about BAD luck of the draw I have never seen that one before. Agaist ANY half decent human my Brits would have be royally screwed I think. The AI played well, and it was FUN! Just thought I would post a little note about the fun I had in my last game vs.the AI. -tom w Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Soddball Posted September 24, 2001 Share Posted September 24, 2001 That was really poor of the AI. I always said it was a gamey bastard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No such luck b/c of my mortar's smoke fetish => Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
