How did you lure that AA out of this spot? What did you offer as bait? That might be crucial for my Ultimate playthrough.

I think he took the Dornier (strategic bomber) if I am understanding his text correctly...

Yes the Dornier Strat Bomber with a defense hero I took few losses but worth it, AA was eliminated by Tiger and Rudel

What was your softcap?

Soren's was 65%

Mine is at 99% and I think I have the correct composition, but maybe I should rethink my unit composition.

My ending soft cap was 67%.
And my force composition was not ideal, I mean now I recognize I was missing more Tigers and a Stuka, which means even lower soft cap.

You might missing something can not be 99%, check your email I send you some thoughts.

I think you can beat this map on ultimate,although it seems crazy to do it

I saw your email which drew me to this page. I really appreciate the details and extra encouragement.

I definitely have a 99% soft cap, and need to keep it high because I have much less prestige then I think is needed to complete this game.

I think the overall playthrough needs to be fast right hook, hold the flanks with minimal units.

Follow up with pincer movement into Belgorod and seize last objective with some devious Fallschimjaeger action in the back, because they will be concentrating on countering the pincer movement on Belgorod.

Flawless.

Sounds good, when you think we will be seeing something?

sorry been too busy to upload...hoping to get time to post start of Gironde...that was over 2 months ago that I recorded that playthrough, I started before I could get Stalingrad started...enjoying the difficulty a little too much

I am actually hoping to record Battlefield Europe again, but again struggling with finding time. Work load has not slowed and family time has increased, along with working out again finding time is becoming a challenge

I really like how you put these callouts onto the screenshots, very nice approach!

I like the map markups. I must have played 43 East 10 or more times (most recently about a week ago) and there's a whole layer of things I'd never noticed. Great work, well done

faos333 · Post by **faos333** » Thu Dec 24, 2020 9:05 am

thank you all for coomenting, Next map to be published after Xmas. My plan is to upload one every week.

In the mean time I am tempted to try the alternative described above for Belgorod, just to see if DV can be reached turn 12. Who knows in the future I might try the Ultimate, although it looks insane, since low prestige is a big issue.

The Ultimate waters are a bit rough, and really dicey early on, but once you get used to the crazy waters you learn to swim quite fine in them.

Please jump in the water is fine
