This would be best with 3 players. If eastern front it will be early war. If western front, it will be late mid war. Both will be based on historical actions. Just starting to gather intel on the forces at these 2 engagements. I will need 2 german players and a russian or US player depending on which front we play. More to follow. Variables will be different.

Terry, i will try and get jerimiah to play. The only problem is, that his force is not late war.

Evan, he said late MW or late 43 early 44. US forces are mostly the same from 43 to 44.

EW German forces I have covered. I don't have a lot of EW Soviet armor. Just the KV's and T34's and armored cars for 41. I do have lots and lots of Soviet Infantry and AT and AA guns. 2 companies of HMG's, ATRifles, flamethrowers, 9 82mm mortars, 6 heavy mortars etc.

If we can get a US player we can depend on, OK. I can help with some of the force needed. Also have a British mid war idea for the same senario. so a brit player would work. The original idea though was soviet and german, early war. I can go either way. I have BT-7s, a t-26 and we can use t-70s as t-60s or early t-70s. So we would have plenty of early russian armor. Still need 3 players though.

I will try Mike Perry and a few others. My friend Bill has US Armor with some armored infantry. I am sure he would be interested.

Chris

Chris, If you can find a US player that would be a nice change. Russians are getting a little old.

I left a message on Mike Perry's answering machine. If he cannot make it we could ask either Jeremiah or Bill. Bill is one of the new players I started teaching the game to last summer. He has a complete US armored force with an armored rifle platoon and engineer platoon in support. As well as some Priests and M10's. He has Shermans, Lee's and Stewarts. Went for the Afrika unit. He has almost everything painted.

He is a reserve officer in the US Army so I will ask him when he can play.

Chris

I have a few US things. 7 Stewarts, 1 M4 76mm, 2 m3 scout cars, a handful of bazooka teams and lots of jeeps, 3/4 tons and trucks.

I guess I could purchase a US armor company quite cheap, now that I think about it. I will punch the numbers around and see what it is going to take me to buy a full US armor company with the support I want.

First I need Afrika.




Chris

I have worked on the scenario and actually could use 2 US players and 2 german players. If we come up with 4 players, I have a good scenario. It has many challenges for both sides.

Well then.... I will call jerimah tonight and ask him if he would like to. I will post back on what he says later.

If we can get Mike Perry or Bill and Jeremiah that gives us two US players. I guess Evan and I would get to team up as the Germans.

Chris

Let me know what everyone finds out.

It sounds good to him. We just need a date and he will then work it out with his parents.

I would rather play on Sunday morning instead of Saturday, as I have plans for the next few Saturdays. But Sundays are wide open for the foreseeable future.

Chris

Let me look at the 18th. sunday morning at merlyns. Also need to check merlyns schedule. This table will be 12 feet long but only 4 feet wide. So we need 4 tables.
