kenm Posted April 27, 2003 Share Posted April 27, 2003 Just finished playing the Operation "21st Army Counterattacks" as Allied which was recommended by the author. Really enjoyed the first day of battles (4 battles total), also a really nice map. I apsolutely kicked ass but in the end was awarded a minor defeat. The AAR was as follows-- Listed as CMBB does it Axis/Allies Men OK 9/326 (yeah he had 9 guys on the map at end) Total Casualties 362/253 Men Killed 183/125 Men Captured 0/9 Mortars Destroyed 6/0 Guns Destroyed 5/0 Vehicles Destroyed 2/5 All other parameters were 0/0. He had more casualities, a much higher % casualties, his guns killed a few tanks, but I got all his guns. I don't understand the final outcome. Not that it's any big deal because I enjoyed playing the operation a lot. Possible spoiler Was it because of all the points the Axis had in air force? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shadow 1st Hussars Posted April 27, 2003 Share Posted April 27, 2003 Who held the victory locations? You may have got 800 points for the casualities you inflicted, but if he got 1200 for the flags he held you're SOL. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kenm Posted April 27, 2003 Author Share Posted April 27, 2003 There weren't any flags. I had been over the entire map at one time or another searching out his remaining few guys. The Axis did have a large air force, does this come into the calculation? Playing V1.03c. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Holman Posted April 27, 2003 Share Posted April 27, 2003 Is it an operation where you have to advance to the end of the map? How close did you get? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kenm Posted April 27, 2003 Author Share Posted April 27, 2003 I ran a tank up and down the end of the map. That's how i spotted (spoiler) the stuff on the 3rd battle that was easily handled. On the last battle I ran a tank up and down the hay fields in the far side of the map, never spotted anything, there were 9 men hidden. They were a hq unit, co lvl, with 3 men, and an infintranty unit with 6 men. A minor loss?? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Warmaker Posted April 28, 2003 Share Posted April 28, 2003 Who was it that lost 2 vehicles? The AI? If you were the one that lost 5 AFVs, depending on the type, you may have lost alot of points. Still, the losses in men are in your favor. I haven't played this operation but I'm willing to agree that you had to get some units off the board on another side. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Other Means Posted April 28, 2003 Share Posted April 28, 2003 sorry but, are you sure you're not shift F'd & can't see the flags? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sergei Posted April 28, 2003 Share Posted April 28, 2003 I checked from the editor, it is an assault type operation. From the manual: "How victory levels are computed depends on the type of the operation played: Advance/Assault - speed is essential. The faster the attacker reaches the opposite end of the map (the full operations map, not the single battle map), the higher the victory level. The game ends automatically when the end of the map has been reached." So, next time you'd better make it quicker. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
