Steel Panthers: Main Battle Tank

by Various

Part 103: Operation Mange Poutine: Greek Turn

Alrightie, I got my files, and I took some initiative on my own at points.


See this little bastard here?


He saw those lovely brits, and decided to drop arty



(For some reason: IE I’m retarded. I forgot to screencap where exactly it is, but I did put some 200mm ones around these areas to keep em on their toes)


I discovered the Chinese APC’s Urcinicus mentioned, and like I said ITT, I decided to force recon em, and fuck with em. So I moved 4 tanks up, and had one of them shoot at the trucks (It missed. I do have the screenshot if you want) I wasn;t intended for it to hit. I just wanted to grab their attention. See, if they rush me….




I’m ready for them.


THE BRAVE FORCE RECON CANNON FODDER!


And since I’m not a total dipshit, here’s 8 tanks I’ve moved into a flanking position, which they will continue to move it, to try and get side shots on any Chinese armour sent to crush my force recon.

( I know it looks like only 4, but there are more. I’m also considering sending a few north side to do a double pincer.)

I noticed all those flags I was moving towards last time were now taken by the enemy so I rolled my apc for towards it with jeeps, but not too far ahead. I’m pretty sure there is a southern push coming. Also, I was a dipshit and immobilized one in the river. I’m guessing I’m now your incompetent teammate. I’m sorry.





So, yeah, in the end, what I did is sacrifice a few tanks for better intel, and possible armour kills, and dropped a fuckton of arty, and noticed a southern thrust. I stuck, sorta, with the plan now.

CSX try to make me look bad. Please. Also, any FO’s near your forces are yours to command/call arty in with.
