Conscript Bagger Posted August 7, 2002 Share Posted August 7, 2002 Originally posted by Traject0ry: Ah, I have to intervene on your otherwise nice argument by starting my own BUT - we have agreed not to reveal too much of the scenarios here. Originally posted by desim8: Yes less of the tac intel as I have yet to find this beastie! I'll add my own: please don't post unit-specific info without a spoiler warning. Maybe only a few of us think it's a big deal, but most folks will probably play differently if they already know that new sound contact beyond the hedgerow is, say, a Pz-IV and not a Tiger.

Guest Mike Posted August 7, 2002 Share Posted August 7, 2002 I think you got it right the first time PK. I mean it's a foregone conclusion now - when my [CENSORED] gets your [CENSORED] by the [CENSORED] that'll be it for your [CENSORED]. and after that it's just a matter of [CENSORED], [CENSORED], [CENSORED] and mopping up the [CENSORED] with the [CENSORED]. So yeah - save yourself the agony and surrender! Mike (Is that better T??

It seems by now that everybody has agreed not to spoil fun by stating any vehicle types, the numbers of units deployed etc. As we are all adults I hope that everyone will post here about things bugging them. No we have erased the spoiler problem with the expense of losing the possibility to comment the scenarios accurately. We shall get back to that when the "Vengeance of the LFHB" and my next project are launched. If they are launched that is . So hold your horses until every game of a scenario has been played and THEN my eager troopers you are free to comment them as you like! -T [Edited as I am allergic to nuts... ] [ August 08, 2002, 08:14 AM: Message edited by: Traject0ry ] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Traject0ry Posted August 8, 2002 Author Share Posted August 8, 2002 Originally posted by Kuma of Finland: Gathering! Hey all Allied number two's! Report! What's the situation now? How much we are winning over Axis number two's? Are we overkilling or just running over them? /kumaDo NOT get TOO eager on the progress of the other lads . As they know their results are compared to yours in order to find out the finalists. You don't want to give too much info to the others as they are playing against you rather than the Axis lads... With the 100 Minutes this has produced some problems. It shall provide some more here but this time you have been warned. Some of the scenarios are built over "out of the bag" ideology giving perhaps fatally flawed info in the briefing. Such measures are in vain if people will join the rumour mill. As stated earlier this tourney is for you so you get to decide what it will be. I simply act as a pimp, gather results and send the prizes. If everybody here agrees you can post whatever you like. This far we have agreed on "no spoilers" policy though and the scenarios being what they are somebody could count situational reports as spoilers. I have E-mailed you progress forms and would be happy to receive them at scenario end. You NEED to post the results here and some people might get some info out of them. What it is might be hard to point out sometimes (some scenarios end as crushing victories to both sides and draws - how could you figure from such deviating results the correct form of action to take) and in some cases it could be rather misleading... Once again if you WANT to change things here or give me FEEDBACK use e-mail. I get too little feedback to draw any conclusions on anything these days. Perhaps Elvis was an alien :confused: ...? -T Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your post was picked to show that INDEED we had agreed on no spoiler policy . I do have a sense of humour though and if this tourney will not satisfy it I'll wrap it up and head to Ibiza .

Traject0ry Posted August 9, 2002 Author Share Posted August 9, 2002 Just to keep you hungry two of the three scenarios for the final round have been selected: Title: Rules of Engagement Type: Meeting Engagement (British vs. Germans) Class: Semi-Historical Date: 2nd of August 1944 Location: Between Vire and Estry, France Time: Dusk Terrain: Damp Weather: Overcast Length: 30 turns Size: Medium As the American forces were finally achieving allied breakthrough during "Operation Cobra" British forces fought hard to draw as much German attention as possible. A new operation designated "Bluecoat" was launched in order to check the German armoured reinforcements as this would allow the American divisions to fully exploit possible breakthrough. Early on the British (VIII and XXX Corps) managed to tie down 21st Panzer Division and as the 9th SS Panzer Division "Hohenstaufen" arrived on the scene 2nd of August it was immediately committed against the British. Using cunning and dauntless tactics the Germans managed to halt the British advance. Still the British pushed on and the pressure on the front made it impossible for the Germans to pull out any of the committed divisions to participate in the operations aimed against the Americans. Title: Taking Ter Hole Type: Allied Advance (Polish vs. Germans) Class: Semi-Historical Date: 18th of September 1944 Location: Ter Hole, Netherlands Time: Dawn Terrain: Damp Weather: Overcast Length: 28 turns Size: Large In 4th of September 1944 the Allied forces captured Antwerpen. In order to gain use of this great port the area of Walcheren/Beveland had to be cleared from Germans. The First step taken on the task was the capture of the southern shores of Westerschelde. This task fell to Crerar's 1st Canadian Army which had performed very well on it's advance along the coast. The German resistance was toughest in the ports where they fought with determination usually managing to mine the harbor area and demolish the port equipment. This action was to be fought as part of the ill fated "Operation Market Garden" and while the paratroopers headed to the grim fighting ahead the Canadians moved against the coastal defenses. Between 4th Armoured Canadian Division (Major-General Foster) and 2nd Canadian Division (under Major-General Foulkes) dashed the 1st Polish Armoured Division (Major-General Maczek) facing the remains of the 712th Infantry Division (Generalleutnant Friedrich-Wilhelm Neumann). By dawn of 18th the Polish had advanced to the outskirts of a village where Germans hastily prepared defenses. As soon as both FK&Cs and the LFHB are played the six best players will continue to the 4D challenge. This will produce the best Allied and Axis player who are to be rewarded and respected for their efforts. -T [Edited as I forgot to explain what this all means] [ August 09, 2002, 06:16 AM: Message edited by: Traject0ry ] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
