In Progress Let’s command you guys in Firefight !

[Egosphere]

Only mistake was not smoking off Mondblut's and Azira's first push to get to that courtyard.
Weird positioning from the ai, though. We crushed their infantry frontline without them doing much to stop us. Putting their tank in the centre so that it could swing around to either side, and putting their artillery all in on Azira's and Catacomb's position would have probably prolonged this battle for a good while

I agree though to be honest with a R-35 you can’t really confront 3 Panzer 38(t).The AT were properly placed, though. With 2 AT (including one light) and 1 R35 not much you can do vs 4 Tanks. The French also have only 8 shells of artillery. I suspect the infantry is there to draw attention and entice the Germans to expose their tanks for support. The R35 is likely best kept in reserve in case the Germans group all their tanks on the left.

I managed to put my hand on the mission editor and did not realize that this mission was that easy. Hopefully it was fun nonetheless.

For the French counter attack, I am going to adjust a bit, courtesy of the editor.

I couldn't find any good pre-armistice French propaganda, that would have to do

There is this propaganda song :

If you don't speak French, start at 2:00. It is like the Eurovision, all French songs have parts in English - here half of it

I'm finally done moving. I'm sorry I had to dip halfway. Thanks for putting this together, ValeVelKal. I'll certainly be ready for the next one.

Wrong war technically, but still works. French men so manly we don't need pants to beat the Boche.

The AT were properly placed, though.

That 2nd AT gun near which Boot died is a bit baffling. It did not prevent Azira from reaching the yard, and it would have been quickly destroyed if we sent a tank east to support Boot. I was expecting it to be farther north, near the junction where we found the R-35

So information for everyone.

The editor has some issues and I can't edit scenarios. I can check them, and all scenarios involving the French are quite simply a bit too easy for my taste.

I mailed the dev and am waiting for his answer. Meanwhile, I ll take a bit of a rest.

For the record Egosphere and Falksi next round you are OPFOR not French. Your best hope is to jump into :

Falksi is there already of course
