GJS'44 Campaign Main Thread - Final June 16th 1944 Tournamen

[cavehobbit]

I think it's just fair to have a third part helping us. It's not just the orders we need help with, it's a third part to decide which side ha the initiative. Anyway we have a third part and I will send the German orders at once.

[LandMarine47]

May I ask who this person is?

[cavehobbit]

May I ask who this person is?

Curious?

It's K9mike. Now you all can start bribing him

[LandMarine47]

We will never! The Panthers are enough.

Hmmm.... Interesting set of orders for June 12th, good news - there are indeed some battles, heh!

[LandMarine47]

[cavehobbit]

Updated OOB: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/535 ... %20OOB.xls

I'm thinking of preparing Bayeux 9/3[SM] AFD vs II/744/711[SPRA] first and while this is being played preparing the rest of the battles as there might be a PM battle in Bayeux. Hopefully this could save us some time.

[LandMarine47]

Wow this is one hell of a day! Looks like Malzar is going to have his hands full! No worries Pegasus will not fall

[Honour79]

Sounds good P-A.

[cavehobbit]

I had a look in the rules about paradrops:

7.45 Paradrops - When airborne commandos parachute into territory and encounter an enemy BG, they will fight an Attack vs Surprised Defence (ASD) enjoying 25 units to attack 20 defenders. The GM will scatter the attacking troops around the sector, to simulate an initial lack of cohesion on landing. In GJS'44, 5al/6 and 6al/6 are considered "air landing" brigades rather than truly "airborne", so will suffer less scattering because they arrive by glider.

This means Cagny is an ASD, not ME:
Cagny 45/RM[SMR] ASD vs 26/12SS[SPMR]

And now the good news
I'm almost finished with both Camagne and Cagny. Hopefully I will finish them before I become to tired. Will send them to Jcb to have them approved. Then we can have the four confirmed battles started at the same time this weekend. Campagne will probably not be the most interesting battle in this campaign, but the map is at least ready for future battles...

/P-A

[LandMarine47]

Can we get a list if commanders during this day?

[cavehobbit]

Map pack sent to Jcb for him to have a look.

LM, I will discuss the list of German commanders in our forum.

[jcb989]

I will review the maps within the hour.
protectivedaddy is attacking in Bayeux for AM
no other assignments yet, I guess guardsman for Trungy
I'll take mimosa and the hearty 4 german units there.
That leaves the 45RM battle, I agree its an ASD
