Gyrene Posted January 3, 2002 Share Posted January 3, 2002 Very nice. AI or Human? My best is 100 - 0 versus a human in a PBEM Meeting Engagement, I had 1 casualty, but no KIA's. I'm not going to say who the other guy was. Gyrene Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redwolf Posted January 3, 2002 Share Posted January 3, 2002 You get a 100:0 victory everytime you sit on the flags and have no own losses. Then it does not matter how many losses the opponent had. This is difficult to do with any sane force including infantry, but a bunch of thick TDs and big artillery can do the trick nicely, especially on the defense.

phil stanbridge Posted January 4, 2002 Author Share Posted January 4, 2002 I was the allied attacker, so I had to capture the flag. The most surprising part to this I found was my two M3A1's that knocked out a Marder III, a PSW 75mm and several infantry. Them 50 cal's are amazing. I also KIA'd the axis 150mm arty before he had time to fire it. I did rather well. Ahem.. It was against the AI, but that's still my best result. Not a single casualty. December '44, snow too.

Porajkl Posted January 4, 2002 Share Posted January 4, 2002 Very good. Attacking without casualties. How could you do it? Even against AI it's hard (almost impossible?), but if you managed this against human... :eek: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phil stanbridge Posted January 4, 2002 Author Share Posted January 4, 2002 I know - it surprised me. I kept my infantry back (two platoons) until the last minute, which is normally where I differ. I sent my M3A1's forward to recon the area. They found the gun, (a 105mm recoiless rifle), several units of infantry, and the Marder. I think the ROF must have helped, as the M3A1's pinned down and suppressed the other teams I had my Stuart pummel the gun. They barely returned fire. I then hit the remaining infantry (whom by this time had run for cover in some houses) with my 81mm arty. My infantry platoon flanked the axis spotter, and took him out with ease, once again, before he could fire. I couldn't believe my luck at this point. Finally, at turn 12 (out of 30) all the enemy infantry had either been KIA'd or had routed. I met very little resistance. At one point my stuart had to button when he was attacked by a faust and sporadic gunfire but that was it as far as their defence went. I noted all the teams were regular - no vets. Even the M3A1's were standard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Johnson-- Posted January 4, 2002 Share Posted January 4, 2002 Can you recreate that score doing a similar battle but making it larger, like at least 1250? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phil stanbridge Posted January 4, 2002 Author Share Posted January 4, 2002 I doubt it I think this must have been a one off. I must have played this hundreds of times now, and not once have I ever received the top score. I've had major victories and such like but never with that score. This was a 500 pointer, by the way, automatically assigned units. I imagine I would have received around 700 points worth of units. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Massattack Posted January 4, 2002 Share Posted January 4, 2002 Well done Phil!...Worth printing off and getting framed. Pity about the 4 men who presumably ran off the map to live and fight another day! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rleete Posted January 5, 2002 Share Posted January 5, 2002 Nope, 'twas I, the guilty party. In about my third PBEM, he (Gyrene) decimated my two stugs without a scratch, then proceeded to shoot all my helpless infantry from range with 3 or 4 Sherms. I surrendered early, as it was just a slaughter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
