Default Re: Terrible luck

This is a case of extremly bad luck only because it was good luck at first. It happened in my USSR LC.

I'm moving some units across a field where I had blown up a couple of German tanks and decimated their infantry support. I've got a good set of combined arms going, but as I move my Zis-30, enroute he gets jumped by an German AT team with those bundle gernades. I start praying as I see the alert come up. Good news, he lives, doesn't even take any damage. I start moving what infantry I have with movement left in his direction trying to spot that stupid little AT team. In the end I have 2 tanks, and two whole platoons looking at my Zis-30 and they can't see a thing. I save it since it had already overheated twice up to that point) and hit the end turn. Would you believe that that Zis-30 survived 3 attacks by that AT team without a scratch! Not only that, but after eveybody else had fired at the team when it became visible, it was the Zis-30 that killed it with one "shot" of their BTM. Right afterwards, my computer overheats. I boot it back up dreading what will happen. I know I'm not going to get that lucky again. Sure enough, when I load up the game and hit end turn, the AT team beats the snot out of my little TD. Not only that, but one of my on squads misses the team and hits and damages my Zis-30! It survived the attacks (and freadly fire), but man was I ticked!
