Corvidae Posted July 25, 2004 Share Posted July 25, 2004 Although the mission designer said not to do it,I am nevertheless playing this mission from the german side, I am having a wonderfull time, i'm getting slaughtered, but its ok, I find that the ai is truely predictable in its use of off-map artilery, , I am counterattacking, I am outgunned, outnumbered, worn out, my troops are weak and short of ammo, It feels like home 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brent Pollock Posted July 25, 2004 Share Posted July 25, 2004 Ah - fond memories of that one...first time I saw a bunker burn (took a direct rocket hit). Unfortunately, it glitched on me during the third or fourth battle and I didn't have the wherewithal to restart. A fabulous solo Op. Worth playing it just for the thunderous artillery preps [i don't consider that a spoiler, I seem to recall the briefing hinted at it strongly]. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

'Forward, the Light Brigade! Charge for the guns!' he said: Into the valley of Death Rode the six hundred. 'Forward, the Light Brigade!' Was there a man dismay'd ? Not tho' the soldier knew Some one had blunder'd: Their's not to make reply, Their's not to reason why, Their's but to do and die: Into the valley of Death Rode the six hundred. Cannon to right of them, Cannon to left of them, Cannon in front of them Volley'd and thunder'd; Storm'd at with shot and shell, Boldly they rode and well, Into the jaws of Death, Into the mouth of Hell Rode the six hundred. Flash'd all their sabres bare, Flash'd as they turn'd in air Sabring the gunners there, Charging an army, while All the world wonder'd: Plunged in the battery-smoke Right thro' the line they broke; Cossack and Russian Reel'd from the sabre-stroke Shatter'd and sunder'd. Then they rode back, but not Not the six hundred. Cannon to right of them, Cannon to left of them, Cannon behind them Volley'd and thunder'd; Storm'd at with shot and shell, While horse and hero fell, They that had fought so well Came thro' the jaws of Death, Back from the mouth of Hell, All that was left of them, Left of six hundred. When can their glory fade? O the wild charge they made! All the world wonder'd. Honour the charge they made! Honour the Light Brigade, Noble six hundred! The Charge Of The Light Brigade - Alfred, Lord Tennyson 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
