Nolloff Posted October 22, 2002 Share Posted October 22, 2002 I tried this one 3 times as the Russians and I´m about to destroy my keyboard because there´s no way I´ll ever take more than one flag. Anyone else getting a severe beating here? A simple yes would save my day. Cheers Nolloff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eden Smallwood Posted October 23, 2002 Share Posted October 23, 2002 Dude. Sorry about your day; I tried to save it. I went and loaded this thing... you've got to be joking me. My poor little iBook can barely count that many men, let alone render them. So I will neither be commisserating nor enlightening, sorry! I've lost 2 out of 2 in _Directive #3_ though... does that help? Eden Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nolloff Posted October 23, 2002 Author Share Posted October 23, 2002 Yes, that´s comparable in the "East Front type of suck" category. Thank you very much, it hurts a bit less now Cheers Nolloff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael Emrys Posted October 26, 2002 Share Posted October 26, 2002 I've played it twice and got total victory each time. Your tactics must suck really, really bad. + + + + + + + + (Just kidding. I've never even laid eyes on that one.) Michael [ October 25, 2002, 06:21 PM: Message edited by: Michael emrys ] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nolloff Posted October 26, 2002 Author Share Posted October 26, 2002 Michael, you managed to shellshock me for a second. Especially because shortly before I read the first part of your reply I found a review at the scenario depot where someone suggested to blast through the German defenses to attack their reinforcements where they arrive at the map edge during a mid-game turn. Blasting through defenses in less than half the turns assigned to the whole battle in a Rune scenario is certainly way beyond my capabilities. Well, keyboards aren´t expensive anymore. qwer+#++234 lgd 20ß9jrfklöjscad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rune Posted October 26, 2002 Share Posted October 26, 2002 Noloff SPOILER! * * * * * * * * * * * The initial deployments are weak. Sure they have a couple of things that can take out your tanks, but all together they are rather weak. The initial assault by the Soviets, altho suffering heavy casualties, broke through the line, and the Panzer unit that move up to support could not stop the flood of Russian troops. You need to do the same. Rune Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nolloff Posted October 26, 2002 Author Share Posted October 26, 2002 Rune, many thanks for the advice. I´ll try to do this although the task makes me feel like participating in one of these Russian human waves which attacked without weapons. If not I tink I have to change it to "The Wimp" in the editor. Regards, Matthias Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nolloff Posted October 26, 2002 Author Share Posted October 26, 2002 Rune, one last question. Have the German reinforcements in reality been the same as in the scenario? Matthias Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rune Posted October 26, 2002 Share Posted October 26, 2002 Yes, but obviously they never got that far...the Russians had broke through, and the unit was used to dam the flood, which they could not do, since the Russians were pouring through. The Russians actually accomplished what they hoped for in little Saturn, and at one point, took control of thr closest airfields and rail that were trying to supply Stalingrad. I have created a scenario on the German counter-attack to take back the airfield, it is in the final testing phase. Rune Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nolloff Posted October 26, 2002 Author Share Posted October 26, 2002 Cool. Looking forward to playing it. I assume it´s going to be in the Stalingrad pack from B+T. Thanks Nolloff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rune Posted October 27, 2002 Share Posted October 27, 2002 Yep, be a part of the Stalingrad pack. Rune Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
