DAR - Ratzki vs DasTiger

[Ratzki]

Time to do another DAR. It will be on my 960m x 1440m / ME / CMBB map found in the Maps section. I have not played a game on this map, so no real advantage here.
Here are some ground rules that we both agreed to:
1- No Battalion purchases for either side, we can have as many Companies or Platoons as we want.
2- We used the Redwolf Armour Rules for the time the battle takes place.
3- No air support
4- Combined arms setting with troop quality set to medium.

DasTiger chose the Axis side, leaving me with the Allies. With the sides now set I ran the setup to see what the AI would choose for troops for me. I jotted down what the AI picked for my forces and then modified them a bit to fit our game. The AI does not follow any Armour Rules so I had to substitute a little but kept it as close as possible to what the AI picked for me. I have grown quite fond of this method of troop selection, makes me think a little more when it comes to making plans for the battle with what unit can I use for what task, instead of the cherry picked forces.

Here is what my force looks like:
3x Rifle '41 Companies
1x Pioneer Platoon
1x SMG Company
3x DP MGs
3x Maxim MGs
1x 12.7mm DShK MG
1x Flamethrower
1x Sharpshooter
1x ATR
2x 82mm Mortar
2x 76.2mm m27/39 Guns
2x 76.2mm m39 Guns
1x 82mm FO
1x 120mm FO
1x Truck
2x Jeep
1x T-34 m41 Platoon
1x T-34 m42 Platoon
1x BA-10 Platoon

Now just some of my own quirks:
-I do not select enemy units for information.
-I only will target manually for units in Command, otherwise I let the AI do it.
-Detailed armour hits is set to off
I am just mentioning these quirks as sometimes I will do things that others would not, as I will have less information about the enemy, and will have less flexability with my own troops as keeping a HQ in command of my troops is needed to control fire, I have to get rather creative with covered arcs to make units fire kinda where I want them if they are out of command. I just find that the games plays a little more realistic when I does these things, my enemy can play how he chooses.

I have not played against DasTiger before so I have no idea what his style of play is.
