Grenny Posted February 14, 2014 Share Posted February 14, 2014 Yeah, as they say:"No Plan survives 1st contact". So why plan at all? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gibsonm Posted February 14, 2014 Share Posted February 14, 2014 Well I know the "Danes" and the Brits would prefer a disjointed response but I suspect the US would like to co-ordinate some sort of combined activity. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gibsonm Posted February 15, 2014 Share Posted February 15, 2014 Well that was fun. Special thanks to Tacbat for raising our player strength by 25%. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tacbat Posted February 15, 2014 Author Share Posted February 15, 2014 And then reducing your tank strength by about the same amount. Thanks all for playing in mission 4 today. Looks like my connection held up, although it was a bit laggy at times. With any luck Sean will be back to host the final mission on 01 March. I'll have the results figured out by the middle of the upcoming week. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tacbat Posted February 19, 2014 Author Share Posted February 19, 2014 Mission 4 AAR We had 20 players participate in the fourth mission of OPV4: USA: Assassin, Toyguy, Rotar, Connaugh, PaladinSix, Darkhorse Canada: Gibsonm, Colebrook, Tacom, Tacbat UK: Crusty, Dark, TankHunter, PanzerLeader, HoggyDog, Tjay Denmark: Volcano, Gladiator, SeanP, Duke Mission run time: 60 min Starting positions: Halfway through: Ending positions: Mission 4 was a night time mission in its entirety. Canada reinforced their beachhead with additional infantry but were eventually cleared out by the UK troops. Canada was able to send more LAV's across the bay and managed to keep a foothold inside UK territory. In the south, USA and Canada launched an early offensive, but were stopped by a minefield before they could make further gains. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tacbat Posted February 19, 2014 Author Share Posted February 19, 2014 Just to recap before mission 5 is played. These are the victory conditions:Major Victory – One side controls the entire island.Minor Victory – To the side that controls the most territory.Draw – Both remaining sides control the same amount of territory within 5 grid squares.At the end of mission 4, the USA/Canada alliance controls 5 grid squares of the UK/Denmark alliance. If you are looking at the map in the rules, they are Denmark grid squares 6, 14, 19 & 22, and UK grid square 7.So, to earn a minor victory, the USA/Canada only need to capture one more grid square and hold what they have already gained.Mission 5 will be played on Sat, 01 Mar at 1900Z. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lt DeFault Posted February 21, 2014 Share Posted February 21, 2014 (edited) I'd like to thank UK Armour for saving 2 of my Leopards in the last mission. Here's the rundown: US forces were scouting north from their foothold in the south of Danish territory. My Leos (center screen) were in reserve, patiently awaiting orders. The UK was moving south to reinforce our forces. The US tanks got to within mere meters of my Leopards...undetected by me! Apparently they didn't see me, either. They began firing right past me on the UK units to my north, destroying one Challenger. But UK Armour had an answer for them. Well played, sirs. :drink: Edited February 21, 2014 by Lt DeFault Better pics. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
