Default Re: Strangest examples of good or bad luck?

After I got over the shock I kinda figgered that's what had happened. I'm sure at least some of those salvos had landed elsewhere on the map, but all I remember is all of the salvos that landed right in the middle of my carefully laid out parking lot. Not a single unit left untouched. HQ, FO's, all of the minesweeper tanks, all gone in one barrage. Poof.

Ironically I had no on-board arty. Just off board 105's, 155's and a lot of air (20+ missions). Half the air was unarmed recon, the other half all PGM's. Planned to spend as many as twenty turns laying waste to the AI defenses with stand-off air while reserving all of the arty for counter-battery before I moved a single unit.

I still have that set-up saved on my XP machine.

Replaying it later I noticed that at some point in that first twenty turn air strike phase that the AI had started firing intense concentrations inside its own area, pounding on its own units. Even though my entire unit was still in its parking lot behind the mountain.

I've since seen that (both) happen with other similar set-ups. But that first time was quite a shock.
