TGIF 2016: scenario list, discussion, and house rules

11 NOV scenario:

 

Top Mech Company Challenge 01e-HN-4006

 

Both sides are different, but they have been balanced in subtle ways. For example, Blue recon all has TIS, while Red recon does not, but has more firepower, etc.

 

SPECIAL CONSIDERATIONS:

  • There will NOT be a draft.

 

NOTES:

  • Avoid studying the enemy's side; only gather intel from the briefing and exposed enemy unit icons (enemy intel), and briefly looking over both sides to figure out which one you want to CO. Anything beyond that ruins the fog of war element.
  • To avoid passwords, open the scenario in Network Session as HOST and choose the side you want to play and go to planning phase. You may briefly look at both sides like this to see which side you want to play or CO on. As CO, once you choose a side, go to that side and create your plan.
  • Remember to play within the TGIF House Rules and SB.com community rules.

18 NOV scenario:

 

Civil War Krasnovia-Scania-4006x

 

Both sides are essentially equipped with the same stuff (being a civil war).

25 NOV scenario:

 

TGIF Norkistan vs Sorkistan v2-5

 

This is a community created scenario that we have played at least twice over the past years. Adjusted here to include some new 4.0 vehicles and features.

  • There will not be a draft.

I'm out, my commo is down again.  Not sure of the headset is just too old for all the updates or my system is just being a jerk.  I can hear, but cannot chat.  It's not the first time this has happened.  Therefore, someone must take Blue command.

have you checked whether you accidentally muted your mike?

Indeed, but if they had done that I think 5 or 6 of the 7 on Blue would have done so (based on the after match comments).

 

But I suspect your comment was designed to elicit such a response so I'll stop there.

 

Well i am going to say this Blue stayed in fight till the end. So it was a good fight.

I've fought on the losing side too ,sometimes it's fun to lose a good fight. 

It's honorable to see folks fight till the end. That's how it should be.

Good show Red CO. Good game everyone else. Games like these make TGIF the best SB MP event. 

 

Thanks.  Couldn't have done it without excellent play from all my subordinates.

 

I'm sympathetic to Blue's travails in trying to manage a large force with relatively few people, but I think that Red had an even worse human:vehicle ratio.  I gave my guys strict instructions to fight just a single vehicle in each platoon and put the other two/three vehicles in a hide somewhere, rather than trying to maneuver entire platoons.

Yes looking at the AAR, Red did have a host of units.

 

However, you could have (not saying you did :) ) focus people in areas where you deemed necessary as required. Such is the advantage of a defender (wasn't sure if you were meant to be attacking too - didn't read the briefing for Red).

 

Blue was trying to manage 5 companies with 7 people (6 actually as I stuck with what I had) and attack on a couple of axes at the same time. Arguably its easier to manage a vehicle at a time on the defence than try to maintain the momentum of an attack plan, while jumping from Gunner's seat to Gunner's seat.

 

Anyway, will see what next week brings. :)
