Forgotten Hope 2
Operation Totalize
So, there I was sitting on a road overlooking a river in my little StuG III with a Panther sitting a bit further up the hill behind me. On the other side of the river was the Allied route of advance, and between myself and the Panther we had already seen off two or three Shermans and a couple of Cromwells. It had gone quiet for a while, and I figured that most of the tank drivers on their team had figured that trying to take that route was a good way to get killed...so I thought, "I'll advance up to the next hill and hide myself near some wrecked static German vehicles to get the drop on any advancing tanks!"
So, I put the StuG into gear and rolled through the ford and up the other side of the river, and up the hill, and was just about to move myself into position near the wrecks when BLAM, I exploded.
What the hell killed me?
The bloody Panther.
He must have been blind not to have seen me cross the river and head up the hill, or stupid...
