HYPOTHETICAL | Best played vs. human. | Created using Matrix
CS version 1.02. |
Forward elements of the 1st Panzer division, facing little resistance, pressed deep into Polish territory. With little regards to increasing reports of a strong Polish defensive force, the 1st Recon boldly dashed into Ursla with AT support under the highly decorated and skillful Commander Rappard and the 1st battalion of the 85th Reg. Suddenly the little AdHoc group found itself surrounded by elements of the 3rd Polish Division. Within hours of the initial contact, the Poles were well dug in and looking to eliminate this meager threat. Fierce tank attacks were beaten back by the German AT gunners with Commander Rappard personally directing the killing of over 20 Polish armored vehicles! Relief columns pushed forward to rescue the Germans and break thru the Polish MLR.

Time wasn't of essence in those days of frantic fighting.. make a decision and roll, no time to plot out a major offensive, when you're simply trying to rescue a recon excursion from annihilation.
Purpose was to give both sides the opportunistic flavor of their commanders.. either you're out for blood or simply waiting on your luncheon order..
