I'm sure I'm missing something but, how come every time I play the comp I feel like I'm the British fighting the Zulus in the Anglo-Zulu war -- except the Zulus always win!
I almost had a coronary one time when I chose the "view map" option after one of these comp slaughters -- the map was 10 hexes thick of rifle squads!
I'd hate to see the comp with the "Tank Heavy" option set to off! [img]/threads/images/Graemlins/Cold.gif[/img]
In fact I could here the radio call now:
- SITUATION TURN #1 TANK HEAVY SET TO OFF
"Lt. Col. Sheridan we're surrounded on all sides by infantry! We need a napalm strike immediately! What? This is World War Two? We don't have napalm yet?? Oh well in that case, HEEEEEEEELLLLLLLPPP!
Given enough turns, it seems the comp will always win through overwhelming force -- he can afford the 3-1 casualties as the price for victory.
It doesn't seem like I can hold any position against such an overwhelming force
I feel like the only solution is to pick the force for the comp so I don't have to drown in an endless sea of rifle squads over and over
Do I just not know how to play?
I mean when the comp has soo many troops how can you win?
HELP!
