Just kill the 232s to eliminate the problem

I've noticed a typo in the info text about the 232: "An 8-rad Panzerpahswagon from a recon parent unit" should be "An 8-rad Panzerspahwagen from a recon parent unit".

Roger, chief, but I believe this isn't a secure channel.

Agree. Morge, use fire discipline!

I've seen it work, but it it may not. Not a 100% solution.

Not to worry...we aren't listening ...but I do have 2 of them .

Status check:

What turn are you on, gentlemen?

The progress has been a bit slow. Still 12 turns to go.

Gentlemen,

I am officially nagging you. What turn are we on with Robaa and when will it be finished?

Two turns left, we should be done with it today/tomorrow.

concur

Game is over, GG Morge, waiting for his final move and the results.

Robaa concluded! Allies win the day. Heavy fighting over the bridge flag but the Axis could not take it. Here are the final casualties...


for the Kradshuten units, it was 1 Infantry, 1 MG and 1 Scout.

GG KingT!

Is that 2 250s or 251s destroyed?

I believe 2 250's, the scout version but I will double check

Heavy fighting on that last round, but they died like heroes. GG again!

Those are 2 250s, yes.

Also spotted a potential bug. When smoke falls on a square with a unit in it, it slightly damages it. I had a morale 50 French unit on one squares, which was just revived from heavy artillery fire from a round before. When I deployed smoke, it took 5 morale damage from it, rendering it useless for the final round. I'm not sure if it's supposed to be a feature, I haven't seen that happen in any other game with smoke on (or didn't realize it), and I'm not sure it's because they're French and have different stats. I'll check in future games and see whether it affects other units.

I've seen it in others. If you are in a hex that takes smoke you are "taking fire". Its only possible as friendly fire. BA2 seems to solve that.

I'll wrap up this calendar day and begin the new one in a couple of hours.

Coming Next: Calendar Day 24 NOV 1942 - Beginning of Day and Command Turn

I just realized now there may be a small mistake with the kill sheet. I think I killed 4 Bersaglieri, the last one being on Morge's final turn attack. It was a kill that turned my M3 Scout car into Elite unit, when the 3-man Bersaglieri unit was deployed in front of a 250 recon three squares away from flag. It received fire from units of mine and a kill shot from M3.

Later edit: it's actually the 250 recon in Morge's Casualties screen image. He must have taken it before unloading them. The same 250 recon does not have the Bersaglieri in them below.

Attaching images below.

Morge, what say you?

KingT, are you certain this didn't happen after the end of Axis Turn 3? I see 2 turns remaining on the above screenshot. Remember the game ends at the end of the Axis Turn three, so if that was morge's screenshot at that time, the losses are final at that time.

Yeah, I am certain. This would be my turn after the German's "Turns remaining 3" or final turn so I didn't fire anything. Only a plane of mine attacked but didn't hit anything (bad habit of mine of always scheduling a hit). The only way to have killed that unit with the M3 in this turn would have been to fire it, but I didn't or else I wouldn't still have 3 shots left to fire at other units and full AP points.

Posting my later edit from the post above and adding explanations in brackets: Later edit: it's actually the 250 recon in Morge's Casualties screen image [in the lower right side of the screen where you can see the Bersaglieri loaded in it. In the same image, you can see my M3 is not Elite yet]. He must have taken it before unloading them [He did unload them, then took reaction fire and were lost, as they were only 3 men]. The same 250 recon does not have the Bersaglieri in them below [in my screenshot, as they're dead in front of it. I selected the same German 250 so you can see it's empty].

I enhanced Morge's screenshot, so you can better view the elements I mentioned above.

I hear you and comprende, just awaiting confirm from Morge.
