PG3 - Let's take all their potato!

[Azira]

Fallschirmjäger!

I also sense you've another update ready, I mean, you wouldn't stop a mission like that.. Waiting expectantly on the second part of this mission.

 

[spectre]

Yep, I actually have the screenshots for the next three missions ready. I just need to sort them, do the writeup and upload it to photobucket. The writeup still takes the longest, unfortunately, but I'm getting the hang of it.

So, bear with me, I'tll be all up in a few. Unfortunately, I urgently had to do go out, do some shit, and we got interrupted.

 

[Crooked Bee]

Nice action! Looking forward to more.

 

[Azira]

Yep, I actually have the screenshots for the next three missions ready. I just need to sort them, do the writeup and upload it to photobucket. The writeup still takes the longest, unfortunately, but I'm getting the hang of it.

So, bear with me, I'tll be all up in a few. Unfortunately, I urgently had to do go out, do some shit, and we got interrupted.

Hey, no worries. Having done 4 (and abandoned 1) LPs of my own, I know the feeling. And yes, practice does make better. Or, at least more effective and thus faster.

Following this LP!

 

[anus_pounder]

Waiting for some more raep. Don't worry about screentime, its good enough knowing that our artillery is helping our comrade-panzers push forward.

 

[Hellraiser]

Their inferior drunk commie panzers are no match for true ubermensch!

 

[spectre]

Enough chatter. On with the show. We have some bunkers to kill.

Stay alert men, we have multiple contacts.

Enemy fighters spotted...

They're all over me

Enemy is coming from all directions. Secure the rear.

The auxiliary gebirgsjaeger actually manage to ambush the enemy AT as they blindly rush for the city.

They're trying to flank us. Artillery, give them a good pounding.

Prepare firing solution.

That'll show them. Panzer command, you can mop up now.

Fire! Beat them to the ground.

Enemy assault obliterated. Time for sitrep.
There are stragglers harassing the rear, but corrently we are at a stalemate.
We cannot afford HaKo's time to mop up,
and they cannot really hurt us.

The plan is to advance through the swamps, straight to the objective.

Time is running short. Clear the bunkers.

On it. Assissting combat engineers. We'll see what the 88 does to reinforced concrete.

The barrage is actually pretty effective.

Zerstort. Thanks for the assist 88.

Scouting enemy positions to the south. IL4 in sight.

On it. Rape time, Mutterfickern

The combat prognosis was 1 : 4
Aaand we se the bollocks results. Unfortunately, air combat gets pretty random.

Dummkopf! Must stay on target.

So ein Mist. We'll get them at the runway.

Still, no kill. At least it'll stay put for the next turn.

Gondolin reporting. Scouting the objective.

Multiple contacts, repeat, multiple contacts.

Keep it steady, recon. Support is on its way.

These tanks are actually pretty good. Similar class to our own panzer.

Artillery here. Silencing the anti aircraft.

Enemy artillery piece neutered.

Luftwaffe, proceed with the strike.

For the Fuhrer!

Crush them!

The communists lose heart. They are withdrawing.

Engineers, whats the status on the last bunker?

Offizer Gondolin has located the final bunker when chasing a stray recon. We are cleaning it up as we speak.

Flammenwerfen purge the untermensh.

This is Artillerie, proceeding to objective.

Aaand we're good to go.

Poor crops this year. 1804 potato and 14 kills.

Debriefing
Pretty straightforward mission. We were pressed for time, so no secondaries were taken this time.
As you see, ruskie recon is pretty damn sneaky, so it is important to protect the vital objectives.
The enemy air presence was not too much of a threat, but we were able to chase them off before they did any real damage.
Enamy aircraft just loves to damage our movement ability, which means we wither lose one turn immediately, or hobble along slowing the whole task force.
The AA didn't get to take any shots at the enemy aircraft this time, but I actually took a few random potshots at the bunker. The result wasn't stellar at range 2, but the 88 can be fearsome vs tanks when firing right next to them.


This is not over yet, moar updates incoming right after this one.

****
COMMERCIAL BREAK
***

Barbarossa in full swing
So it appears that we're chasing the commies back across mother russia.

This time, the fuhrer is stingy with medals. Guess it is somehow tied to the mission score. No changes to the strike team, no changes to the equipment.

Fortunately, the two objectives are close, and there is plenty of secondaries along the way. I predict a good harvest this time.

Yep, looks like we're up for some tough urban warfare.

We are supported by auxilliary tanks and grenadiers. Grenadiers have poor stats but have been overstrenghted, which means they are tougher to kill and sting more than their stats would let on.

Hellraiser and Psychic will join the task force to the north. Their objective is to capture Bugskaya along the way, and converge with the main strike team for the main assault.

Gondolin begins the recon. Finds nothing.

Suspicious, too quiet.

Can't see Scheisse. Verdampte woods.

Heinz Katz conducts a sweep...

Mother of god! Look at the size of this thing.

We're up for a treat.


The situation is as follows...

Recon has spotted multiple contacts around Bugskaya. Artillery and Medium armor.
The nearby woods are also crawling with ruskies. Carius is tasked with smoking them out.

 

[GarfunkeL]

Ah, the joy of meeting KV tanks. At least it wasn't KV-2!

 

[spectre]

Kommand, this is useless. I need support.

Delegeting Flammenwerfen. Burn the forest down if you must.

Move out men. Maintain a tight formation. Garf, secure the rear. The roads are to stay open.

Requesting artillery barrage.

Commiewurst!

Hidden Movement...

It begins with proper shelling.

Hold fast.

Providing fire support!

Verdammte! Barely dented it!

Aircraft incoming!

Hold fast. Dammit!

The grenadiers are badly shot up and retreat, but still alive.

Southern approach.
Merkwürdigliebe moves in for anti-tank duty.

That's what I'm talking about!

Don't go, I have yet more love to give.

Serrated assisting.

... and Gondolin mops up. The BT is no more.

I did what I could here. Requesting Lufwaffe support!

Don't fear the KV, Kameraten.

Aaaand zat's a bingo!

Report!

With the aid of the Luftwaffe, we were able to sweep the entire surroundin area clean of untermensh. We were taken by surprise by the KV, but it was was neutralized eventually.
Southern approach is close to the target, Kampfgruppe is gaining on. We expect minimum resistance on the way.

I'll move out of the way, flying high in the clouds. Not to attract attention

What the...

Heinz Katz, that MiG is to be shot down.

On it, Kommand. Odds look good.

Raaaaa! Moar dakka!

Katz reporting in. Target is down.

In the meantime, we capture the secondary along the way.
Fuhrer is kind to send some rare equipment.

You've gotta be fucking shitting me...

Kampfgruppe, ready for an assault.

Negative, wait to converge with the rest of the force. Launch probing atacks.

I found us some enemy arty. Come, have a bite.

Ready to fight behing enemy lines Kommand.

Proceed.

The airfield is taken. Scouting for intel.

This is artillery. Prepared to level the town.

Multiple bunkers block our passage. We need to clear the path.
Artillerie, all that arty is to be silenced before the assault.

Probing for anti aircraft.

Multiple AA emplacements detected. Moving out. Luftwaffe be advised the sky is not safe.

The AI just went full derp on me here.

What the... the AAs have broken the ranks?

And all that to take a potshot on our fighters. that deserves to be punished.

Prepare for the assault. We're taking this town.

Assault successful the defenders are out in the open. The city is ripe for the taking.

Objective secured. Firing at stragglers.

I just noticed, anus was granted a commendation during the siege. All that suppressive fire finally got noticed by the high-ups.

Expert support means our arty is more effective on the defensive.

Right.

The situation is as follows.
The western bank is almost indisputably ours. The lone bunker is not a threat.
Gondolin scouts to the south, securing the southern passage to ambush any reinforcements.
The eastern bank is protected by infantry and bunkers. Unsupported.
This will take a while, but there won't be any problems.
There is also a juicy secondary objective to the northeast.

Pioniere, move to capture the secondary.

The conscripts are well dug in. It'll take a little while to smoke them out.

In the meantime, anus and Merkwürdigliebe shels the other side of the riverbank in preparation for the assault...

Successful capture.

Kommand, we captured commie equipment. Just FYI I'm not touching that untermensh filth.

Gondolin scouts the advance to the final secondary.

Our advance seems crystal clear, save for the lone AT. We only need to mop up the second bank.

In the meantime, we are bothered by enemy aircraft...

I am being killed! Where's the fucking AA?

Yeah, sometimes the AA just bugs out when it "should" defend our aircraft. That or I am missing something.
Maybe the AI used a special order?

More airplanes harass us.

Heinz, Serrated, drop that aircraft at all cost!

Next turn, the conscripts defending the town fall easily before Hellraiser, Pioneers and Psychic.

Didn't stand the chance.
We liberate a p.cool arty leader. I'll drop somebody in his shoes soon-ish.

Anus proceeds to shell the bunkers on the other side. This'll take a bit longer.

Fighters strike again. This time, the AA is quick to react.

Mopping up.

Katz reporting. Enemy destroyed.

Now, to find that pesky biplane...

Anus is commanded again. TBH I just don't get it how this whole thing works.
He did some support firing at the enemy bunkers in their turn, so that may have been a factor?

Anyways. The second commendation is random, and is usually pretty useful... unless it props up on a mismatched
(like night paradropping on a tank unit).

This one is useful. +4 ammo for the arty..

Our task force moves in to assault the final objective.

The airport is taken. No resistance so far.
Azira paradrops in.

And the biplane harasses our arty...

Ha, gotcha.

There you are Kunte!

Please die!

Resilent little fuck. The pilot is probably drunk and doesn't feel he's all shot up.

Sitrep says, we're cleared for the final push.

The usual drill.
Psychic rains down death, HooDoo smokes out the defenders out, Azira mops up

And receives a long due commendation.

We're done here, Kameraten.

over 2300 potato taken. I hoped for better. 19 kills is better, but nothing to get excited about.
Apparently, bunkers are not listed, so it should actually be 24 because we totally deserved to kill that PO-2

Debrief
Went easier than I thought.
The fighting was intense, but ultimately the objectives were real close and conveniently located.

Yeah, we killed our first KV. Came down pretty fast. Bombers are our best friends when it comes to that. There's more when that one came from though, so I'll considering grooming us another stuka.

As you prolly saw, the whole air combat thing is really random. A pity we only have one fighter pilot, that would help a lot, cause running down enamy aircraft on the way home really allows for a pest free blitzing environment.

Unfortunately, our sole recon unit does not deliver. This is partially due to Gondolin getting the shitty end of the stick with promotions. Well, there were other priorities. Promoting him to lev.4 will help, as he'll get a special order that greatly increases spotting range. We will also consider picking up another recon team.

I'll give you the sitrep for the next scenario and I'm done for the day.




***
The long march

It appears Lithuanian hitmen have struck the commies. Seems like we will be running them all the way back to Ural.

And we got a little present from the Fuhrer.

Despite pitiful range, assault artillery may come in useful this time as this scenario asks for mobility.
Pitiful ammo supply as well. Hmm. Let me think...

Guess who got a nice lil leader special the other day.
Anus rides the sIG.

And we welcome our new recon specialist: bee

The PSW serves us well. No sense in fixing what isn't broken.

And we also have the T34 that needs mounting. It may be filthy untermensh equipment, but
it has the oomph we need for the blitzkrieg.

Fuck this. I'll sacrifice myself for the Vaterland

But I call dibs on the first tiger we get.

Judesheiss, how do you steer it?

Remember kammeraten, I did it for our Fuhrer.

Sitrep time.

We will be assisted by artillery and SS.

:drools:

Do want.

Yeah, looks fearsome

The range is spectacular, what kills it is the RoF. It works wnders on defence, but pretty shite on the offence.

I still want one.

Anyways, sitrep.
Our objective is to move 8 units to the designated area. That's a lot. We'll need all the speed we can get.
Good thing we needn't capture or hold anything along the way.
There are two routes we can use. Both lead through Uryupinsk, which also has a convenient airfield nearby. Then we'll decide. The wooded area to the north looks a bit longer, and comes with the risk of ambushes.
The southern route leads thorugh a secondary objective, which is always good.
Unfortunately, if we take it, I fear that we may not have enough time for a major victory.

The plan is thus, capture Uryupinsk, than send out scouts to decide the route. If we take the woods, I'll leave a small task force behind to secure the objective down south. Once we push the 8 units, we'll have all the time in the world and we'll use Luftwaffe support as they cannot mexe into the exit hex.

That's all for today, folks. gotta get me some sleep.

 

[Johnny the Mule]

You update faster than I can comment. And I wanted to.

During a scenario or campaign game, leaders have a chance of being awarded a Leader
Special whenever his unit takes or deals damage, and a greater chance whenever it elimi-
nates an enemy unit. PANZER GENERAL III SCORCHED EARTH keeps track of each leader’s kills by
class. A Leader Special can also be granted by triggered events such as capturing a particu-
lar objective.

And Leader survival after unit death is 1/3.

Interesting facts:
Carius got "his" (was a loader back then) 38t frontally penetrated by a 37mm AT gun in 41. Radiooperator lost his arm. Krew survived. So screenies liek the one with PzIII vs 76 cm AT are funny.

No one wanted to drive captured T34s after 2 of them got blown up by mistake at night.

 

[Gondolin]

Unfortunately, our sole recon unit does not deliver. This is partially due to Gondolin getting the shitty end of the stick with promotions. Well, there were other priorities. Promoting him to lev.4 will help, as he'll get a special order that greatly increases spotting range.

Well, get on with that promotion.

 

[spectre]

@Johnny the Mule
Yeah, I recall that the manual said something about damage and kills, but the thing is, in practice it feels utterly random. Or the formula is not that straightforward, maybe the circumstances count as well, as for example arty seems to get the medals pretty fast for using reserve fire.

No one wanted to drive captured T34s after 2 of them got blown up by mistake at night.

I thought about incorporating it somehow in the intermission chatter, but unfortunately, we'll gonna need that extra armor.

@Gondolin.
No worries, you'l get them. I'd give you two (because yeah, you totally deserved them), but unfortunately, only one promotion per mission.
Notive how the rng agrees with me, yu see so much action, yet no medals yet :-P

 

[anus_pounder]

YES! New equipment. I love me some WWII equipment porn.

The true face of Bee. Thats all right, 'she' will always be a true 'sis' to us.

 

[Gondolin]

@Gondolin.
No worries, you'l get them. I'd give you two (because yeah, you totally deserved them), but unfortunately, only one promotion per mission.
Notive how the rng agrees with me, yu see so much action, yet no medals yet :-P

It's a conspiracy.

 

[Hellraiser]

You can reward me with the first Panther rather than a Tiger for driving this commie scheisse. This T-34 smells like vodka, crap and vomit BTW.

 

[spectre]

Had my beauty sleep, finished up some of the work for today.
Which means...
Next update incoming.
Scenario begins.
Only 8 turns for a major victory. This'll be tight.

Scouts, conduct a recon sweep. I need to know what we're up against in Uryupinsk

Being level 4, bee can use the recon patrol order to quickly reveal all hostiles in a large area.

Like so:
This is in no way connected to the obvious uber-ubermensch neandertal lineage.

Intel is Gut. But this...

Yeah, looks like something straight from Wh40k.

Katz and Gondolin sweep the area to the south.

No hostile presence in sight.

The skies are scear. Repeat, the skies are clear.

The situation looks promising.

It seems that we can move on to assault the first secondary.

Kommand, I would like to report that this commie junk smells as if a whole orphanage of drunk Judekinden died inside.

That was to be expected. Luckily, high command has ordered a supply of Wunderbaum to aid our struggle.

That was to be expected. Luckily, high command has ordered a supply of Wunderbaum to aid our struggle.

Any kolor you want. Ganz besser, ja?

:snicker:

We have enough artillery to level this entire shithole.

Prudency requires to take out the enemy arty first..

Okay, let's take this commie junk for a spin.

Shoddy untermensh work, but nonetheless, it packs a punch.

JaKo got promotet to level 6. Which means he can use the ground support veteran command.

This means the bombs make stuffies go boom more. Sometimes this makes a difference of 1-2 kills more, sometimes it don't.

It's also THE hot shit to test on the ruskie heavy armor.

Unfortunately, enemy AA presence prevents us from doing a bombing run atm.

Ok, the AI got the derp again. It seems that it compulsively chases any aircraft it sees.

Time for some serious artillerin'

The 18cm is deployed and in rage. Bring the hammer down.

The ruskie klutz is neutered. Permission to strike.

Negative. We need your support to take the city. Anus, Merkwürdigliebe , assist.

Pounding enemy positions. Verdammte, need to get really close.

Ready to assault the city.

It's been an honor to serve the Vaterland.

Merkwürdigliebe will now entrench to level 3 in just one turn. Perfect for holding recently captured objectives.

Fortifying our positions. They won't be driving us back from this town.

Enemy AA are cleared, proceed to strike.

Striking again. They're all yours.

Striking at the enemy armor

Good hit. The Acht Acht delivers.

Panzer, you are cleared to mop up.

Acknowledged. Enemy armor is now rubble.

Taking the airfield.

Bee draws first blood.

Untermensh scum.

Scouting the roadway ahead.

The woods are clear. Repeat, the woods are clear.

Enemy presence to the south. Fighters and Recon spotted.

The first objective is swiftly taken. It seems like the northern road is clear, which might allow for a quicker approach.
No guaranteeing it will stay the same, though.

Hmm. Tough decision. We will split our troops. Main advance is through the woods. Rest of the force will attempt to capture Novobila.

 

[Merkwürdigliebe]

Looks like Todd Howard, or whatever the name of that Bethesda guy is.

 

[spectre]

Russians counterattack

I see aircraft incoming.

Oh no you don't

The enmy IL attempted to bomb Caius, but Serrated shot it full of holes before it could do any real damage.

There's more of them. They're coming through the river.

Requesting assistance!

Fuhrer protects, pening fire on attackers.

Unbelievable, not een a scratch!

That...hurt.

I want a full status report now.

Everyone's accounted for. Carius took the brunt of the attack.
It also appears that the commies have taken our rear, good thing we don't need it anymore.

Fighters, I want that IL shot down.

On it.

Fighters reporting. We see massive enemy movement to the south.

Proceeding to attack the enemy bombers.

Damn, they have fighter escort. We cannot bring them down.

Time for payback.

Howdya like this, cunt. Your own Medizin!

We split our forces into two groups. A highly mobile army takes the highroad.

...killing off some infantry marauders along the way.

Anus delivers the pounding, Carius mops up, despite being shot up pretty bad.

Our heavy siege equipment takes the souther route to secure the objective.

A lone infantry moves from the edge of the map, as if oblivious of our tanks.

It is quickly dispatched by Garf.
Meanwhile, bee lies in ambush...

and stings.

Moving in to flank the enemy.

Securing the airfield for the northern approach. The area is clear.

Katz follows the enemy planes to the airfiled. Unfortunately, he's unable to kill them, before they refit.

Shit. Time to move out.

Without stopping to refit, Carius clears th path to the captured airfield.

It takes more than that to bring me down.

Meanwhile down south...

Ruskie armor on the horizon.

Setup siege equipment. We can take our time here.

That's a T26S and a KV-2, unfortunately I forgot to take the screenshot with the stats :-/

Anyways, the T26 has pretty mediocre stats, thing is, it's been overstrengthened to 15.
Which means it can take a beating and deal much more pain than you'd expect.

We'll need some assistance anyway.

Paradropping.

Shit! AAs, that thing was supposed to be bombarded to hell!

Sustaine minimum injuries. We will use the woods as cover.

The stragglers are getting mopped up near the airfield, unfortunately our advance is not proceeding as quickly as planned.

Ok, where did that artillery come from?

We're in a bit of a mess here. While we move as fast as we can, the ruskies are hot on our trail.
They systhematically take back whatever we've managed to capture. Doesn't matter though, all the potato was taken anyway.
Merkwürdigliebe acts as the rear guard for the siege equipment. With some luck, he'll be able to

We're running short on turns. As you can see, the northern approach got delayed for a bit. And they need two more units at the objective.
I'm hoping that we can quickly take the airfield so that the paratroopers gain a bit more operating range. The siege equipment will then pin down the enemy defenses at the town.

We may sill be able to pull a major victory out of it, depending on the resistance at the target location.

To make matters worse, our aircraft are harassed by the enemy.

 

[spectre]

Time to get a move on. The siege awaits.
W managed to scare away the T26, but didn't kill it. 15 strength units take a while to bring down.

In ther turn, the KV brought some punishment on HooDoo and he was forced to withdraw.

Begin the assault. Level the city.

All support shelled throughly. Focus fire on the KVs.

We'll get to them later.
Initiating flanking maneuver.

Allow me.

Zerstort

The artillery truck burst into flames.

One more barrage. Get to those KVs.

Moving in to kill

Damn, it's still standing.

Leaving the woods. Target acquired.

AAs disabled.

Drat. Perfect goddamn time to start raining.

We're still able to deliver the payload.

Results were not as it was hoped for.

Finishing off enemy recon. We've been chasing them fuckers for the entire day now.

Moving towards the objective. Aear looks clear.

Looking good so far. We're still short on time, though. Last two turns remaining.

The siege went pretty well too. All that's left is the infantry, weakened KV and T26.

Damn it, the commies are reinfocing the area.

Begin assault. Give them some poundin'.

Damn, the range on this thing is atrocious.

Verdammte!

Bloodman, ficken arschloch cunt!

We cannot secure the airfield.

Sneaky cunt, how did it get there.

Proceeding with the siege. Firing.

Objective taken.
I think we've found ourselves a Cassidy.

No room to deploy additional AT. Kampfgruppe, finish this quickly.

Mopping up the KVs

In the meantime, near the objective, our kampfgruppe gets anally raped by enemy aircraft.

Jesus fuck, I can see the ground through the floor!

Another KV... we'll not going to make it.

Hold the line. We must get to the road.

I'm moving on.

Disengaging, nothing more for us to to do here.

Meanwhile, the other Kampfgruppe finishes mopping up the siege...

Damn, that T26 just refuses to die.

Die Mutterficker, die!

Paszol vpizdziec, sabak!

...

What? It kinda rubs off.

With the enemy destroyed, we quickly slip past the lone KV to the objective. Unfortunately, one turn too slow for a major victory, unfortunately.

Poor harvest this year. Good thing we stocked up on potato beforehand.

 

[spectre]

Debrief

Generally speaking, I always sucked at the move X units to exit area missions, especially the ruskie missions where you had to ship like 12 units this way. And conduct a search&destroy along the way.
But enough of the bitching.

It was a close call this time. Paradropping Azira to assist the siege was one obvious mistake, that didn't contribute much and I would be better off moving him to the NE airfield.
From there, he could probably just paradrop to the objective.

Mobile artillery didn't work too good too. The pitiful range means less opportunity fire, you don't have to waste actions to deploy, but you waste some anyway on maneuvering.
It seems that

The lack of AA also did hurt the northern advance. One fighter just wasn't enough for the job. Serrated would be much more useful had I taken him through the woods.

All in all, the requirements were pretty steep, so I'm glad we did how we did. The multiple tank encounters were also tough,
but that's a taste of things to come.

With hidsight, I might have packed half of our guys to recon trucks and just blitzed across. Will have to try it some other time.

 

[Azira]

Out of simple curiosity, what commendation did my unit receive?

And mistake or not, being paradropped into the action is always a high, as long as at least some of the company survives the drop.

 

[spectre]

All right, about them commendations.
The first one is always the same and is unit-specific:

(o)All infantry gets the "Tactician"special, which means when attacking it will always be in close combat, regardless of terrain and entrenchment.
This makes infantry awesum as it naturally has the highest close combat skill of all classess. Also, in close combat the enemy's close combat value is what counts, regardless of any other defense. And if it's not infantry, it will be a pretty low value (f.e. heavy tanks can have 2-3).

(o)Tanks get the Blitz special. In 3D assault it used to extend their movemnt range which was p.cool and all. In Scorched Earth, blitz means enemies will surrender instead of retreating. Makes mopping up so much faster.

(o)Artillery gets Expert Support which allows for an extra defensive fire. Normally it only fires once in enemy turn, twice is you save an additional action a eot. Not groundbreaking, but useful.

(o)Anti Tanks get Expert entrenchment, which means they dig in to maximum level immediately.

(o)Anti Air get an increased +1 range (usually this means an 33% - 25% range increase and it makes a difference), slap this on top of the "Careful Positioning" order, and our 88 now has effective range of 5 hexes.

(o) Recon and Fighters get essentially the same thing - increased spotting range.

(o) Bomber special allows them to bomb in bad weather. But the effects are still reduced significantly.

The second comendation is randomly pre-defined for each leader. Some are situational, some are game - breakingl as long as they happen to the right guy.

I haven't seen them all yet, but some of the effects I've seen are:

(o)Immune to AA when paradropping (obv wasted for anything other than infantry. Although I think there is one or two paradroppable light recon stuffies in vanilla game..
(o)Increased amo by +4 - awesome on bombers, good for everything else, useless on infantry.
(o) First move action is free - useful for just about everything.
(o) Increased resistance to attribute damage - very useful
(o)Convert suppression to kills - I've had wet dreams of having it on bombers. Or artillery.
(o)Unlimited refits (normally, only the first unit refit is to fullstrength - fairly useless.
etc.
Hopefully, we'll see some of this on our team.

 

[Crooked Bee]

and stings

The true face of Bee. Thats all right, 'she' will always be a true 'sis' to us.

Hey, I look manly, mildly annoyed, and have a funny get-off-my-lawn! expression. I can totally endorse such an alter ego.

This is in no way connected to the obvious uber-ubermensch neandertal lineage

 

[SerratedBiz]

I wonder who the first casualty is going to be...

 

[Johnny the Mule]

Onward!
