100 turn GC A.A.R

Post by ww2nut »

Using the CC5 platform within TLD
Have finished 1 turn per day GC (25 turns), 2 turns per day GC (50 turns), 3 turns per day GC (75 turns).
Now testing 4 turns per day GC (100 turns), each amount of turns GC requires strategy & tactics to slightly change.

Carentan with 4 turns to go until the 501st can reinforce to get some much needed armour.
Thinking i may have to switch with another BG just to rest them.
Take note reinforcement dates appear where company commander name appears.
Saves much confusement, or reinforcing a day early only to get original para drop forces again.

Tried to be aggressive early, just got caught up in criss cross MG fire.
Infantry gun last squad standing, got my backside kicked in under 8 minutes.
So much for switching them out on next move.
