Ok I'm back home with my normal PC so have updated my Excel spreadsheets with results.

Turn Results as per PzC view


Turn Losses (Graphed)


Phase Losses


I've put in Turn 45 results and also Turn 46 as I've just got back Mike's turn 46.

I've not watched the replay just skipped to results. Slightly shocked at losses as the map hasn't changed much? I think I've screwed up at Elsenborn and left a motorised infantry unit in swamp which couldn't retreat when assaulted? Classic mistake No 2.

Will verify this when I sit and watch the replay.

Monschau has fallen which explains the jump in VP's. (500 VP)

Other thing I noticed in my quick 5 minute look at the final positions was that Mike has twigged that Disrupted tank Bn's are easy meat to push out of hexes. Two units dislodged. Even if the hex is Wooded and the tank units have 30+ tanks then a lowly VGD Bn can push it out without probably incurring many casualties or disrupting.

Thanks Volcanoman for those great hard attack factors you gave these VGD units. Its a pity PzC factors can't be split between attacking and defending, as I accept that these units were probably pretty well armed with hand held a/t weapons etc.....but for offensive use?

Anyway I will stop havering and watch the replay.....
