@Hawk

can you move a post of AdmiralBG to this,
he put it in "best of vosges", but it is photo of "mons"? 

 

Best: player numbers and agressive machine gun fire from the church tower, real atmosphere of the early world war 1, before it changed to the trench war.

Best: - The view from up the hills was nice, all this infantry moving on open fields was perfect for a photo shot, unfortunately i forgot to take it.

Worst: - As i expected this map was not balanced for the Entente.

Funniest: - @Firecrafter getting sliced by mr @AdmiralBG's saber and pretending a Wound Medal for this

BEST: The tactical hotspots were known. "Church" was heavily defended. The fieldguns were manned and worked out well.

WORST: We would have need more men at the first flags. Specially more close armor combat troops. The enemy Erhardt always slipped through to our back flag.

Big fail ! Armor close combat troopers at our first flag should have knocked down their armoured assault at all costs. We had trouble at "Church", deduct a lot people for defense there.

The "Erhardt" was again responsible to win rounds after rounds for the Germans. The "Erhardt" is fast and well armoured, how many Fieldguns you will put up against it ?

They again won the third Battle due to this single vehicle. Placed in the back it worked like a well armoured sniper tank. Inflicting heavy casualities all over.

More over the ticket bleed was fucked up. As mentioned in the videos, it seemed the server settings weren´t changeable. 480 : 288 at start  with an "Erhardt" respawning every 30 sec.....

Oh well, it seems the campaign will start for us now: Find spots for our artillery at their spawnpoints, knock out the vehicle spawns, kill them when they spawn.

Their "Erhardt" killed us too, whenever we tried to spawn at our flags ...

ADDITIONAL:  Next two battles are infantry only - at "Ypres" we will met the "Erhardt" again !

But Erhardt can be destroyed by 2 cannon shots or 1 cannon shot + 1 grenade and it did not always pass the bridges.

We also practiced a lot with that vehicle.

The "Erhardt" is a fast and well armoured vehicle with 5 seats & 5 MGs ! Entente didn´t have anything like that !

480 vs 288 tickets at a 2/3 round bleed were bad. You are still happy about your victories ? 

Big thanks to Gabbotto´s men to compensate. Switching the enemy leader or any other unintentionally to us due to numbers  Please switch me next time to them for ....compensate 

You could always easily bypass the sphere of artillery by speed. Only the attack route took the Erhardt in place.

Entente´s fieldguns, not artillery or even heavy artillery because we have none, couldn´t follow you due to terrain and attacking soldiers.

Even if this is an Outbreak 1914 campaign, the forces should always be balanced from the start.

Next battles are "Vitry", unfortunately not "Vitry classic" and "Montblainville" are infantry only, "Ypres" will be again an "Erhardt" map, then "Langemarck", "Battle of Yser" and "Battle of the Nete"

will be inf-only once more.

The very last battle: "Bocage 1918" will be a due conclusion. Heavy armoured tank forces 4tw 

The next BF1918 campaign should be named: 1918 - The fall of the imperial empire
