Nippy Posted June 29, 2003 Share Posted June 29, 2003 Crow and I have just started our scenario, which is named Counter Intelligence. My German commandos are attacking his Russians. Unlike Soddball's Kneiber Dam, this takes place in daylight. I play tested Counter Intelligence as the Germans vs AI. It'a fun little battle to say the least. However, the main reason I'm here is to give a quick update on the festering pile of failure called Axe2121, who has managed to lose yet another Uber-Kitty to the might of the Red Army. I think that puts our AFV loss ratio at 7 to 0.5 Edit: or...our...ARARARARARARARARARA :mad: :mad: Edit #2: I'll give him 0.25 for the one tank he was able to gun damage and 0.25 for the T-34 that bogged for a few turns. So far he's neck and neck with nature for how many losses he has inflicted. [ June 28, 2003, 11:25 PM: Message edited by: Nippy ] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nippy Posted June 30, 2003 Share Posted June 30, 2003 Time to bump this thread back to the top with a daily battle report: Axe2121 - Just got an entire rifle platoon BBQed after an OT-34 caught them playing in the street. Robohn - Call Mulder and Scully! Aliens have abducted Robohn and repalced his brain with the CMBB AI! How else could you explain leading an infantry charge with an Artillary FO? Shosties4th - We both seem to know what we are doing. Man, this one is going to get ugly.

Dave H Posted June 30, 2003 Share Posted June 30, 2003 I'm here this fine morning to report a miracle. I have seen one of WallyBob's Tigers explode from a well-chucked Russian demo charge. I may have to save this turn for a long time, because I have never seen a Tiger blow up before. Gotta tell you, it was well worth the pioneer casualties taken in the resulting explosion. Other news: Received a turn from Prinz Eugen over the weekend. It turns out he is spending most of his summer computer time playing Medieval:Total War (the maggot). Our game may be delayed until he gets back to school and gets over this summer infatuation. Crow's Russians are slowing my German commandos. Since the scenario is only 18 turns, will I have time to accomplish the objectives? He seems to be enjoying PBEM, so the rest of you gamey maggots get ready for another opponent. Oh, I have discovered he took his member name from the Crow of the comic books and movies, not the robot Crow of MST3K. What a relief! :cool: Stalin's Organ is enjoying the cold air which blows directly from Antarctica to New Zealand this time of year. Our scenario is pretty much past the "my dug-in KV shoots all your trucks" stage, and I'm finally slowing his escape route off the map. Will it be enough to slow the flight of his Russians? Having to cross a bridge to get away is pretty tough. :eek: Teddy Windsor and I finally made contact with our infantry in Cheery Waffle. I think he wants my Germans to get out of town. That won't be happening any time soon. We'll level the town first. MasterGoodale was again AWOL over the weekend. What a shock! Since he set this battle up as a 45+ turn epic, I expect to finish it sometime in the next couple of years. Soddball is over in the GF starting political threads like some kind of America-bashing, pinko, liberal Englishman. Next thing you know the forum police will be following him back to this refuge from the nastiness of the GF. GRRRR!!!! :mad: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
_Axe_ Posted June 30, 2003 Share Posted June 30, 2003 Slow weekend. As slow as the freaks in this thread. Keke and I have finished the first battle of The Beginning of the End operation. TNT levels are starting to rise. :mad: Mike is still cowering in the woods somewhere. We're on, like, turn 20 or something and I have had NO contacts whatsoever. And there are a lot of open fields too. I think he's been taking ubertroop lessons from Keke. :mad: Nippy continues to stomp my troops in Cheery Waffles. Blech. :mad: Nufink from Prinz Eugen in a while. Get to it my fine Finnish f®iend! :mad: Shosties4th mentioned something this weekend about a "day off" CM. His loss of a platoon of MKIVs may have had something to do with it. Teddy's "sausage fingers" caused him to type in the wrong password, necessitating a redo of our setup. The maggot is afraid, methinks. Last, and certainly least, MasterGooodale has once again disappeared into his lair of mold and ants. What a douchebag. :mad: Canada Day tomorrow, so lots of time for turns and Solzhenitsyn's August, 1914.

I'm looking forward to playing a few more of you as I struggle to improve my skills I'm going to work up slowly to several PBEM games at a time while still playing some games against the AI.

Shosties Posted June 30, 2003 Author Share Posted June 30, 2003 Turns out to the maggots Prinz Eugen, Axe2121, Nippy, and Keke. I also have a game starting up with BadgerDog though I doubt he'll be joining in on the trash talk here. Gave him an invite though. He trained on M4A3E8's back in the 1960's!! :eek: :cool: Great satire there, Nippy. Though things have definately calmed down in the GF compared to this past fall once the Iraq drumbeat got going.

Shosties Posted June 30, 2003 Author Share Posted June 30, 2003 I vaugely remember seeing an Easy Eight in a black and white photo from the Korean War with that same paint job. The commander of that tank was probably as whacked out as Donald Sutherland's character in Kelly's Heroes! BadgerDog is Canadian. Maybe you can get an interesting interview from him, Jason?

Shosties Posted June 30, 2003 Author Share Posted June 30, 2003 I'll probably get the hell slagged out of me for bringing this up, but wouldn't the most appropriate place for this thread be the English-speaking Opponent Finders Forum?

Do you think BFC will mind if we make a change to another forum? :confused: It is always fun to play against somebody who is used to successful tactics from other games, for instance, leading attacks with your best armor.

If it takes MasterGoodale upwards of a dozen posts to find each new thread, how long do you think it'll take him to find one in a completely different forum? I don't care one way or another.

"Opponent leakage" is the condition where a maggot is so feckin overwhelmed and defeated that the sackless twit bails out on a game before that game is finished. I am sick of the piles of stool coming in and crowing about how k3w1 they are and then rnning like girls when tactics AND gameyness kick their yarbles through their dome.
