Ratzki, I will be on vacation from 29 July to 10 August. In my absence I recommend Willow take over as Commander and if necessary he can command Center TF and let Raz take the two TF that are going to link up further north.

This is a copy of the message posted on the German thread. They will set up 1st and then send each of you a file.
Below are the 3 battles taking place this phase. I will post these and let things get started, then will update your units map.

CentremapDusk is battle #1 vs Willow
Southmap1aDusk is battle #2 vs Combat Wombat
SouthmapDusk is battle #3 vs Rommel
The two extra players will battle #1 and #2 respectively vs the two remaining players from the Russian side, your choice. Same as before, the battles that are being played twice will be combined and losses are average from the two games. This is the only way that everyone can get a chance to play every round.
German side sets up first and then sends the file to the Russian player. Make sure everyone gets one battle and that there are two number 1 and two number 2 battles being played and only one number 3 battle being played. Any mistakes, just let me know right away and i will straighten it/them out.[

thanks again for setting all this up .. looking forward to this match up :)

I agree with Wombat - you have been putting a lot of work into this. Thanks very much! I'm a little nervous being acting-commander while herroberst is on vacation. Thanks for the vote of confidence by the way! I'm sure you'll be back before any major decisions have to be made.

Raz, are you sufficiently recovered to play this round? If you can, I think you have your choice which of the 2 battles (Centremapdusk or Southmap1adusk) you'd like to play.

Ratzki, is there a German player who'll be left out? If so, should we solicit another Russian player or is it too late?

I'll see how things look as the German side sets up. If we are short a player, I will ask the rest of theBlitz if someone would like to play the game in relief.[/i]

Sounds good! Can't wait to get back at it...:cool:
