Scenario DeRa013

Having read the AARs about splitting up to get crossfires and how the different flanks would each get mauled, I tried, in my innocence, just going straight up the middle and closing with the panzers to point blank range and duke it out.

Very bad decision.

When asked how the T72 fought in the Lebanon War the Israeli's stated that it burned just as well as the T62 in the Yom Kippur War (someone here will correct details there...) Well the Stuarts burned just as well as the A9s.

I absolutely understand why the other AARs stress the crossfire because without that there is simply no way to knock out the german armor here. I think that even if you do get two pinchers on the Germans it would be very difficult to stop them.

As for the infantry they had continental breakfast on the lido deck while watching the pretty fireworks a few hundred meters away... Ooooh... Ah...

Don't feel badly this is an unbalanced scenario to play as the Allied side.

The last time I got clobbered as the British Commander in this hopeless scenario, I was only able to eliminate the two German Pz-II platoons, while losing every single one of my Honey platoons.

A swell tank for recon work, no match for Rommel's Pz-IIIs and Pz-IVs.

Alas, ours is not to reason why . . .
