No problem, I enjoy doing it.
I like messing with the design program and setting up battles. But it was not much fun playing them against someone since I have way more knowledge than anyone I would play against.
So this way, I get to peek in and see how the battle plays from many different styles and I get to enjoy watching it from that perspective.
Also watching it knowing the person has no pre learned knowledge is important. That part of the unknown factor can bring in some interesting events.
@laurent22 and me are humming along quickly, down to the last 10 mins. Battle has been a sort of seesaw fight back and forth. We both have been lucky a few times and both have had good and bad turns. Good fun battle overall!
Deadlines for round two are
Up to March 23 (5 Points bonus for early completion)
March 24th - 29th (due date)
March 30th : late (- 5 points)
Of course, if enough games get completed, we will move on to the next round before these dates

Finished my battle vs @laurent22 we fought to a Draw! Good game, well played and thanks for the fast turn rate!
Great battle! To get a tie score I sacrificed a lot of sheep to the goddess Fortuna, my tanks got very lucky.
The one that really had me shaking my head and laughing was towards the end. Your tank moving fast at my tank trying to flank it. But my guy stopped and was facing your approach. Then took his good old time aiming. While yours basically spotted and immediately fired on the move KOing my guy. Oh well, as I’ve said before…
Sometimes the CM gods smile upon you… other times they b!tch slap you!
DELETED. Too much info.

It wasnt a TD... I purposely used the vague "tank" term to maintain FOW for others still playing. All good questions you bring up. But we really can't go into details yet until the AAR thread goes up.
In fact, you may wanna edit your post for players off to a slow start.

My game against Mad Mike will be over either tomorrow or Tuesday. (3 minutes left) But it is already an over whelming victory to Mike. I've met my new nemesis in the form of the average CM tree hiding entire tanks behind them without ever being seen. XD MeatEtr put it very well by saying, "Sometimes the CM gods smile upon you… other times they b!tch slap you!" Unfortunately, they were not with me today. Or at least, not with my blind TC's and scouts. Well played to Mike, and a valuable set of lessons learned on my end. Looking forward to the next one!

The Jackal and I have finished up.
It was quite the bloody affair.
Well fought Jackal!

Yeah, that's a lesson I learned a couple of years ago:
Trees are your friend, not just but especially in CMx2 tank vs. tank engagements.
My match vs @Horza Omanid has ended.
Thanks for the game and great turn rate.
Although the result was quite clear in the end, it didn't feel like this for two-thirds of the battle.

Yes indeed. It was rather in the balance for the first half, even going well, then in maybe 5-7 minutes, everything fell apart. haha
Well done @StoneAge. You walloped me completely. Deserved your victory.
with 4 battles completed,
I can start the placements, even though its too early to say it really means much
Here is the top player for each side, best scorer first.
Germans: MeatEtr, then The Jackal
USA: Stone Age, then Mad Mike
You might have lost the battle, but in the Tournament you might win the war
