Some sort of presence on the tall hill in the southwestern quadrant of the map should make it easier for us to spot (and/or blow the hell out of) any German advance, right?

thatbastardken posted:Good formating, but you're taking the wrong route north. Please check with Staff Officer Slim Pickens for remedial orienteering. quote:52nd Brigade Objectives These were the orders given; no particular route to the objective was specified. In the future, try to include any specifics with the orders so us brigade commanders don't have to flip through the entire thread and double check the Roll20 to make sure we didn't miss something.  Will try to amend the orders, but I'm not sure I'll have the time to do it today.

I was under the impression that all units would enter, in turn, from the corner marked "French point of entry". Misunderstanding now clarified, orders amended again.

Trin Tragula posted:Official Historian's Survey: Turn 0 1. How do you feel the planning for this battle has gone, in general? Pretty good. Some things were unclear about the rules, but I think that's been sorted by now. 2. How confident are you in the plans and orders that you personally have laid for this battle? The great Napoleon himself couldn't have done better. 3. How confident are you in fulfilling the various objectives set by the Army Commander? Fairly confident. There are some critical points, but even if something unexpected happens the situation should be salvageable. 4. Is there any one aspect of the battle that seems to you will be most critical, on which success or failure is most likely to turn? Securing Saint-Croissant. 5. Thinking optimistically, what do you think the likely result of the battle will be? We secure Saint-Croissant, Sanglant Femme and Pasteur Ridge. Then it's on to wine and croissants in Berlin. 6. Thinking pessimistically, what do you think the likely result of the battle will be? The Germans will overwhelm us at La Cote, then outflank us. France is lost, Paris will fall, the Élysée Palace is turned into a sausage factory.

my dad posted:I think you also have an artillery chit? There's a supressed one on the ridge. Might be worth placing it on top of the ridge. I think that's a machinegun, but you're right, I forgot that one. I'll try to update the map. EDIT: Done. Comrade Koba fucked around with this message at 17:38 on Feb 21, 2017 |

If we blow the southernmost bridge, won't that pretty much force them to advance directly into any ambushes we may prepare in Foret de Effadyers and Bois de Blob?

AbortRetryFail posted:Engineers arrive late and will take 12 turns to rig the bridge to blow. See the engineer stuff in Trin's post. It makes destroying the bridges on their end not something we can realistically do at the start of the game without knowing their force composition, and it's not really something we can plan for at this stage. Uh, right...maybe we could have the engineers ride shotgun in the armored cars?

 I'd like an infantry brigade, so I guess I'll just wait by the sidelines until reinforcements turn up.
