Welcome to The Few Good Men

Thanks for visiting our club and having a look around, there is a lot to see. Why not consider becoming a member?

The sorry state of my CM battles... sigh

Will is crushing me in a mirror QB. Attack on Town across open ground although left flank has some woods cover. I sent a whole US infantry battalion on flank attack and although it took a minor objective bridge it seems doubtful my eviscerated squads can push to the central major objective. Although my three Easy Eights are intact and I am cautiously advancing with them he has a couple of Panthers still. As the German he came across the open ground that turned out not to be all that open given the weather so am hanging on by a thread which will break soon.

Wellsonian and I are doing H2H Muddy Waters. I pushed across the right flank main bridge and overran the right flank and objective lines but his reinforcements will probably stop me short of the final objective. Tank casualties have been heavy but I have five or so left.

Valkura (sic) abandoned our H2H Muddy Waters at File 26

Hedgehog and are doing H2H Assault on Saille. My King Tigers and Wirbelwinds and panzer grenadiers overran the left flank first objective. On the right flank woods my Ausklaren (sic) troops overran an AT gun position set to hit the Royals in the flank I assume. My infantry and tank force is still intact thanks to the heavy fire support and a twofer stonk with nebelwerfers. Looking good so far but I see his reinforcements crowding up at the final objectives and time grows short.

Pekische and I are doing H2H Assault at Le Charne. Have hold of the central objective so far and am starting to see his left flank advance. Too early to tell how it will ultimately go. I see tanks in center and his right flank so he seems to be going to hit my left flank.

Rico and I are doing an interesting QB. A central objective on open ground with woods on my right flank and his right flank. He bought two Sturmoviks who apparently hate trucks and mortars as they keep strafing those and one my two Hetzers. Dang things never run out of ammo apparently. He says his first use of them and they have been a pain. Lost three tanks and he has lost two. My infantry near the objective is intact, the boys in teh right flank woods have suffered due to aircraft and mortar attacks. But my mortars are coming to play on his infantry advancing across open ground. Two early to tell how it will turn out. Sigh, wish his sturmoviks would run out of fuel or something LOL.

Nathangun and I are doing H2H Vire. Complex terrain. Lots of forces. His heavy panzers have been dinking my Shermans and M10s through peepholes it seems. His infantry assaulting Monument Hill but I have sufficient forces to hold there I think and he's pushing on his right flank infantry and tanks into Vire itself but I should be able to hold although tank losses might make that difficult. Can't leave infantry in buildings when tanks are firing at them, losses too great which allows his infantry to advance but falling back to second building line and using murder holes seems to work okay.

I am playing Jtimo in the Scouts Out tournament. I lost every prior game in the tournament but am doing okay in this one. the final game is on a great map with interesting terrain and forces and I have been dinking his tanks more than he has mine. His air does not like bren carriers it seems. I may be able to take every objective if I'm careful.

Some of these games will end soon so if you are looking for an opponent send file and dropbox invite to nelsonv1945@hotmail.com. Still looking for an opponent to do the Huge H2H RitterSprung if your computer can handle it.

I salute my opponents as skilled lads who make my CM2 gaming difficult but fun.

Cheers.
 
Rico, yeah, I like to buy Panzer Escort Company but its infantry contingent isn't robust enough I guess but I like the mix of AT guns, infantry, mortars.
 
Herroberst63 If you don't mind taking on newbies i would give you a ladder game. Im new and only just bought these games but ive got them all so you could pick. Mirror is my pref
 
Happy to play. Send dropbox invite and first file to nelsonv1945@hotmail.com. I suggest you pick the scenario or if you prefer QB. One that favors your side is fine. In the dropbox as we go along you will see I added a comments section so we can talk to each other if you have questions. And there are many tactics, techniques and procedures on this forum. I've played wargames, first board of course then online for over 50 years.
 
I cut my teeth on Panzerleader/Blitz etc looks like you got a few years on me with my first board game being "Hit the Beach" then progressed to more serious stuff after than but about 40 years ago give or take. Anyway i like things being fair and equal hence why i prefer a Mirror game. a QB attack/Defence game etc of your choosing. Only rule from what i gather is no Artillery on attackers start postions.
 
It's CMBN TWC Meeting Engagement at Le Bourg. But I'll play any file you choose to send. No worries.

Nice ambush on my infantry by the river by the way, then your BAR team have the cheek to surrender after gunning down 8 of my men, they were shot trying to escape ;)
