A really bad day in the allied camp...
This doesn't explain the approach route taken by the enemy and the obstacles encountered en route. Possible to get a screen shot of the map centred on Sian to get this info? Also day of losing Sian.

I'm afraid I've really screwed this up Alfred.

the turn of the fall I think...damn I can't remember how to get a zipped turn on here.
RE: To Young to Die, To Old to Rock and Roll
I don't think you can, they are too large. The tech support forum has a larger limit to allow them. And the AAR forum has a limit that is somewhat larger than the others to allow for some big map pics.ORIGINAL: zuluhour

Thank you G, ignore PM.
RE: To Young to Die, To Old to Rock and Roll
By the way, I could not make my mind up on a laptop so I'll be trying again next weekend. The "monkey" works well for signet, it has made it relevant for me again.
RE: To Young to Die, To Old to Rock and Roll
HEY! At least casualties were light. [;)]

all right, on the 21st I was routed out of Sian, now on the 24th he routed me again 96mi down the road. How damn fast can he move??? How did he move 96mi with infantry and artillery in 72 hours? Not to mention losing 918 squads to 1? WTF am I missing?

RE: To Young to Die, To Old to Rock and Roll
Do you have a HR on what and when a LCU can be placed in Pursuit Mode?? For me the LCU cannot participate in combat and can only be armor units. Sort of like my old board games when there was an exploitation phase after combat.

RE: To Young to Die, To Old to Rock and Roll
Nothing unusual here.
I presume the combat on the 21st occurred at 83,40 and that of the 24th occurred at 82,39. Both those hexes are on a major road. As such the table in s.8.3.1 of the manual shows the distance can be covered in 72 hours when in "move" mode. Some Chinese air bombardment on the moving enemy stack would have knocked some units back to "combat" mode and given you some additional time.
I reiterate what I said before. You should look at what I posted in cribtop's AAR. You should not be opposing frontally this enemy stack. Move in behind the large gaps he is creating.
