But still a worthwhile learning experience for me.<br /><br />The final points tally reveals Paul wins the campaign 24 - 20, so quite close in the end. But Paul deserves the win and has bottled the Germans up in their starting position...Scottswargaminghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00581220877007982139noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4792842363822667133.post-80114918059886941072013-06-02T21:12:30.530-07:002013-06-02T21:12:30.530-07:00This certainly was "one of those games"!... This certainly was "one of those games"! Well, turns 2-4 were anyway. My entire plan was squashed under a landslide of 1's and 2's, it was quite breathtaking. Still, as was Winston Churchill's personal motto: keep buggering on! <br /> It's valuable experience to play on when you receive an early knock back. It improves your decision making skills, and forces you to try new tactics and think on your feet. Surprising things can happen, the dice may repay me (they didn't :)<br /> Overall it was a fun campaign, and many lessons learnt on both sides in the art of infantry battles. I think one limitation of this particular campaign was that we were restricted to the same company throughout. While we could make changes within that company, it did mean we were both stuck with primarily defensive forces that struggled in the attack. The only two attacking wins were in the first game (Seize and Hold) which is such a random, crazy mission that anything can happen, and the first Fighting Withdrawal. Looking forward to a change of pace, although I'll probably still be an Airborne commander for Panzerschreck. Paul Whttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17249430164077358978noreply@blogger.com
