Monty Posted October 19, 2002 Share Posted October 19, 2002 I just finished a scenario, and after the AAR i inspected the map. Checking scores for units, i discovered one of my SS Moterized Infantery squads scored 21 casualties !!! Is this a record ?? btw I got the SS units with the scenario, i never buy SS units myself.

Louie the Toad Posted October 19, 2002 Share Posted October 19, 2002 Sorry, no cigar. Maybe a cigarette. BUT a great picture. What interface are you using? Where did you get it? Are those the 'in game' trees? "They came at us in the same old way, and we beat them back in the same old way.... Toad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dazed Posted October 19, 2002 Share Posted October 19, 2002 I had an American Airborne squad with over 40 once. The other squads in the platoon did well too. At the end of the scenario I think only 6 or 8 guys in the entire platoon were left alive but had accounted for three times their number.

CombinedArms Posted October 19, 2002 Share Posted October 19, 2002 My best so far was an elite US paratroop squad that killed 39, with three losses. That whole platoon did pretty well, too; at least one other squad was over 20. Of course, all of the scores mentioned so far were probably higher in reality. The game only gives you confirmed kills perceived through the fog of war (which is why arty FO's often show "No Kills" even when they've clearly whomped the bejeezus out of the enemy.)

tools4fools Posted October 21, 2002 Share Posted October 21, 2002 In a city fight I had once a regular Gebirgsjaeger squad with 46 kills 9US veteran rifle 44). The other two squads had 30 and 16 kills. However only 3 men of the squads with 46 kills suryiyed, all other including the HQ's were killed. The 3 guys being under command of a comapny HQ with good bonuses still were fighting against some more US inf at the end of the game... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yup, Gerbies in limited LOS situations have racked up some pretty high kills for me before as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobVarak Posted October 24, 2002 Share Posted October 24, 2002 Not to brag...ok, to brag...but I had a T-34 take dole out 94 infantry casualties in a CMBB game this week. I've got the screenie to prove it, but don't know how to post it LOL http://www.battlefront.com/cgi-bin/bbs/ultimatebb.cgi?ubb=get_topic;f=23;t=002409 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spanish Bombs Posted October 25, 2002 Share Posted October 25, 2002 I mentioned this in another thread, but recently I finished a CMBB game where a German 250/8 HT took out 48 partisans. The large majority of those kills were the product of 3 cannister shots that took out (I think) 9, 6, and 16 guys. The last shot was at or near two squads unwisely bunched together, and too shaken to move. Makes me wonder what double-loaded cannister did at close range to grouped regimental lines in the Civil War. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The whole platoon it belonged to (all green but for one conscript squad) recorded 85 kills for 7 losses. A 12:1 kill ratio for green against crack troops is fairly respectable, I think, even fighting from foxholes in woods. All were still holding their foxholes on a wood edge at the end of the game. Serzhant Lapkin and Leitnant Bayunov will be in line for an Order of the Red Banner, at least. Fortunately for me, my computer opponent continued to feed its crack squads in dribs and drabs into the killing zone to the platoon's front, and the hummock just in front of the treeline prevented any suppressive fire from long range being brough to bear, making it effectively a reverse-slope defence. The computer's other thrust ran into a mess of barbed wire, mines and Maxims, and did little better. In a spookily-symmetrical result, I had 155 men left and 38 casualties, and the computer's Germans had 38 men left and 155 casualties. This QuickBattle was generated using automatically-chosen forces for both sides and every possible setting set to "random". Huge fun -- I shall try that again, I think. All the best, John.
