Shot and THEN sent to the East, just to show those idiots on the East what not to do

Turns 34-40 (27:00-20:00)

Luckily Dowly didn't manage to take out my Tiger so I had time to pull it back. Relatively little happened over those turns. Nothing really worthy of mentioning.

US troops retreats from the left side forests and starts to pound it with mortars causing terrible casualties.

Left flank troops getting ready for the attack which will be launched after the 81mm mortars bombard the enemy positions.

Crécy · 03-26-12, 06:55 AM

Turns 41-42 (20:00-18:00)

The attack commences and troops advances to a forest near the edge of the town, taking only minor casualties on the way.

Tiger spots an enemy M-10 which is quickly knocked out.

Meanwhile my troops starts moving towards the town. They encounter heavy resistance.

Troops on the left flank manage to reach the first buildings. On the right flank my scarce troops are taking heavy fire from the allies and apparently the allies have launched a last attack to collapse my right flank.

Turns 43-47 (18:00-13:00)

Fighting continues everywhere. My troops are overwhelmed. The end is nigh.

Situation in the town at 15:00

Around 13:30 I gambled and rushed the tiger into the town to support my diminishing troops. Surprisingly a sherman was waiting and it managed to shoot twice at my tiger (one hit the wheels and one weapon mount). Even more surprisingly, tiger's armor withstood the shells.

Then the expected happened and tiger commander decided to this:

Reverse and launch smokes... Didn't even try to shoot the sherman.

I ordered the tiger to charge back there and finish that malevolent sherman...

Crécy · 03-27-12, 08:47 AM

Turn 48 (13:00-12:00)

...and the tiger commander decided to disobey me. The tiger didn't move an inch. here's the idiot himself.

Right flank is basically broken.

I try to get that tiger moving once more. If the moron decides to disobey again: immediate decapitation.

Also, I forgot that I had ordered a mortar strike. The mortars fired their last grenades just there where the sherman is. Pure accident. Of course it didn't damage the sherman but at least the grenades hopefully disorients the crew so that they will panic when they see my tiger again.

Turn 49 (12:00-11:00)

Tiger moves! But doesn't spot the sherman.

My forces are pretty much torned up but I want to destroy that sherman before I will offer my surrender!
