Valentines v Pz III's Tourney Archive - for tactical study

Re: Valentines v Pz III's Tourney

My 3x panzers move against the small flag but are punished severely by AntiG3n's lurking Valentine which quickly picks off two in quick succession like ducks at a shooting gallery-

ACSpectre deploys a welcoming committee comprising a tank, a gun, infantry and possibly a kitchen sink against my approaching German infantry..

The German front line buckles and heaves like an earthquake as Willard's Valentine army subjects it to intense pressure..

Intoducing new style endgame view. Final front lines are wavy lines, Armour wrecks are 'X', Flags are outlined in yellow for clarity, north at top.
----------------------------------------
Summary- I had the slightly better flag score but AntiG3n racked up big points for killing 7 of my panzers for the loss of only 1 Valentine, and he gets a massive 18 ladder points (6 for his Tac vic, tripled by bounty bonus to 18)

ACSpectre's russian 76mm gun subjects my German infantry to a canister barrage..

The gun fired several times at high trajectory; the fatal cloud spread out and plastered an area of roughly 60metres diameter, but I counted all my men before and after the bombardment and amazingly not a single man was lost.

I was hoping you would post something about that. I had never fired cannister at infantry before and was wondering what effect it would have. I thought it would be a little more lethal, but at least it kept your head down. :thumb:
 
Canister at 400 meters!?! Madness!!!

Crazy Ivan gunners must have grabbed the wrong shell!
 
Real artillery- ACSpectres tremendous sustained russian heavy artillery barrage reduced my once-proud panzer platoon to little more than scrap metal, 3 immobilisations and a damaged gun; note the crater-strewn landscape..

Once again ACSpectre shows his mastery of the Art of Bombardment as he forces my Valentines to run the gauntlet of a devil's footprint (circled) which destroyed one and crippled another..
