Alright, here comes the illustrated AAR from yesterday's session's second game. This one opposed Wolf, Waffly, Mike and Myself on the NATO side, to SuperU, Zitron, Jim and Ferrard on the Pact Side.
After a few minutes of deployment, and observation, Varsaw Pact troups decide to launch a large
Mechanized Infantry Assault on our right flank to cut off our Main Supply Route.
Meanwhile, the other commies
kill a lot of grass
After a few seconds of rough engagement involving western ammunition only, the enemy push turns into a
NMA* Infantry Assault
In the most pure FolkARPS tradition, we witness the usual and still glorious
Chaaaaarge... backwards. And death of all the charging force.
In the meantime, the commies get angrier and
start killing trees. A lot of them.
Our intel service then realize they've secretely developped an individual flying system: The
JetPact
Getting a bit lacking on the imagination side, we decide to retaliate and
avenge our trees. With quite a lot of commies in them.
The situation gets tenser and tenser, and the whole tank platoon that happened to be having a poker contest in those trees
moves up in some open fields. It doesn't go any better, really, but at least they have the peace to die watching a spendid case of
aurora boralis. Unless it was just another frenzy of senseless tree-killing from their own comrades. They'll never know, the
cobra was watching.
Nonetheless another assault coming from our front has pushed us out of a nice forest, so we take on coming back in there. Even though we soon are faced with
superior flying technology, we manage to inflict quite a lot of damage in one of the most epic battles. Which involved
treeline suppression. A
lot of it.
At this point, even though each team has about the same amount of points, the pact gets bugged in those battles, allowing us to freely move a large heliborne force towards their flanks.
Using
astute recon, the
Apaches rain down fire on the
enemy artillery and their defences, opening the way for a
Delta Force air assault.
Was a really fun session, hope we can do that again. Apologies to those who came late and couldn't join due to the fact we played for about two hours.
