Kampinsoka Forest (beta2 - scenario 5)

Post by charonjr »

Kampinsoka Forest - Field Marshal - previous DV

Starting with 860 XP, down to 300 after elite replacements. My 3 Stukas and 2 of my 10,5cm are already at **(*) after the last scenario (tad fast, but they were used very often and if I keep losing 1+ units each turn I will surely be glad about fairly fast XP gains). Got some SE infantry, but I still wish I had not lost my SE Gebirgsjäger.

The Forest was the most easy scenario yet, essentially I just rolled over the OPFOR, but I failed to reach Skrzeszew this time. Ended at turn 16/16 with a DV, 1090 prestige.

Modlin and Warsaw looked nicely defended. Since my artillery have been delayed/slowed down in the woods I was not able to attack any of those 2 - this looks good to me.

Kampinoska Forest on Colonel level.

It wasn't as easy as the first version. Those AA guns were well placed, at least you do need your groundforce to take out the trains. It took me more turns this time 15/16. The scenario has become more challenging but not too difficult.
Sometimes the terrain is more dangerous than the enemy. I don't like my tanks get stuck in a forest hex. Artillery was moving up slowly but just offered enough support.
The cavalry was good at probing, so my airforce could attack unpunished. Lost the cavalry in the end thou. No losses in my core. 378 PP remain.
The first medals are being awarded, no heroes yet.

This was one of the two scenarios (along with Narvik) that I thought was the most egregiously easy on my first playthrough but this time around it was quite a bit harder. I got a decisive victory on 15/16, close enough to make me a bit nervous at the end. The heavily wooded terrain presented a legitimate challenge to my troops, and the buff put it just in the right range of difficulty. Well done!

You should reconsider adding information about quantity of train troops destroyed, cause I had to count them in mind ;-)
