[Ty Snouffer]

Here's the current state. German impulse. (also learning it is hard to determine when you might want to try OF)
Orders?

 

[Barthheart]

Yeah I should have made it stand out more. Using [Order] is a great idea.

 

[Barthheart]

Hmmm... Does I5 have LOS to H2?
If not I'd suggest Koch and friends DT move K2-J2-I1-H2-G2...
But F5 has LOS to H2....Crap!

Well... maybe low crawl Koch and friends to J3... safe move but doesn't advance our cause any...

 

[Ty Snouffer]

"Yeah I should have made it stand out more. Using [Order] is a great idea."

No worries. We're figuring it all out. I appreciate the participation.

 

[Rydo]

Divide et impera.

I think i have a plan!

[ Order 1 ] - Since the squad in L3 was activated by Lt.Plassman, then move it in Lt.Koch hex and from there to J3.
US impulse
[ Order 2 ] - Activate Lt.Koch and double time in : J2 --> I2 --> H2 --> G2.
US impulse
[ Order 3 ] - Pass.

 

[Barthheart]

Moving the squad in L3 into Koch's hex will expose the whole stack to Op fire from the sniper.

But I like part of your route for Koch better than mine.

So how about move Koch and friends to J2-I2-H3-G2.
Only possible Op fire is I2 from sniper and G2 from the US squad. Both have building cover TMs. H3 is blocked by all the stone walls.

Then hopefully the sniper has fired and the squad in J3 can move without being shot at... and I think now it should move to L4 to make a supper stack for shooting.

 

[Ty Snouffer]

Only use the [Order] tag for your final order. Once you guys agree, post it here. Maybe designate a leader or split the forces to commend. Just ideas.

 

[Rydo]

Agree for the Lt.Koch move.

About the squad in L3 if we get all togeter we're gonna have a total fp of 5 ( 1 squad + mg, plassy leadership and other squad but not mg ).
Or uf they fire differently ( plassy, mg + squad = 4 ) and the other squad + mg = 3.
Three more firepower.

[ Orders ] lt.kock and squads to g2.
Then squad from L3 to J3 since it was activated by lt.koch.

 

[Ty Snouffer]

TURN 2 IMPULSE 2

: Koch moves with MMC and evades OF from Sniper. Other German MMC moves to Wood Building.
: US MMC Fires on Koch shaking German Squad.

German Medic only remaining unit.
Orders?

Current state:

 

[Barthheart]

I'd suggest medic to J2.

 

[Rydo]

I'd suggest medic to J2.

Agree.

 

[Ty Snouffer]

Medic Moves. EOT.

On to Turn 3.
Germans win initiative.
MMC fails to rally in G2.
No other rally attempts.

German orders for first Impulse?

Again, logs posted here

Current State

 

[Barthheart]

Let's see how aggressive the AI is... I suggest we pass.....

 

[Rydo]

Yes we pass but on the rally phase switch the mg from the shaken squad to lt.koch or if the us decide to melee we're f@&€d up!

 

[Ty Snouffer]

Roger that Rydo. Good pick up.

Let's see what AEO does.

 

[Ty Snouffer]

AEO tried to spot Plassman and failed. Marked with an Ops Complete. This is considered a Pass (10.0), second in a row.

 

[Rydo]

Try to spot the American stack with Lt.Plassman.

 

[Ty Snouffer]

Off to work. When you guys decide, just tag it with [Order]

 

[Rydo]

Try to spot the American stack with Lt.Plassman.

[ Order ]

 

[Ty Snouffer]

I'll check the spot this afternoon. To keep things moving, can you let me what you'd like to do if the Spot succeeds? If it fails?
