(4) Quick Battle-Battle Size:Large - Combat Mission: Final Blitzkrieg

A decent map, challenging to attack through the woods, and one rather obvious attack route down the centre. An interesting challenge.

Opponent elected to choose 4 King Tiger tanks among his force selection for this game and later said it was by accident when I called him out on it. Picking a squad of the strongest unit in the game was certainly a convenient oversight. Yet, since there was no discussion of any parameters or limits prior to the start, this was more of a gamey move that does not constitute fair sportsmanship rather than a clear attempt to cheat. So, for any future opponent of his, be sure to lay down some ground rules first, as he certainly will not hesitate to bring whatever he feels to the table.

IMHO, if you don't reach an agreement at the beginning of the battle concerning any of the aspects that might be involved in it, you cannot complaint afterwards, sorry pal.

People should bear in mind this kind of topics MUST be discussed on a Meeting Engagement battle type, that's precisely what rarity of the units is for.

Cheers.

A most worthy opponent. Fought to the bitter end. Great armour engagements. High casualties on both sides.
