CARIBBEAN CRISIS - NOW AVAILABLE!

I got two decisive victories and two marginal. Marginals were first and third battle - in the third battle i was suprised by enemy T-54s - those damned things were more than a match for my M-48s.

In last battle Castro was torched by my engineers - serves him good

. Enemy tank reinforcements came too late - T-10 appeared between my infantry and AT Jeeps, they did little damage, and were quickly destroyed. As for T-54s, some of them them stumbled right in front of my two M-103s - you can guess the results

. Anyway i lost two Zippos, two M-48s and a single M-103. 5 other tanks were "mission killed" -immobilized or lost main gun. Anyway, the last batlle was tough

Nice job Mac! I think I got one DV and three marginals, with a marginal overall. I opted for almost all infantry in the last one, with a couple of strike aircraft. That slowed me down somewhat, and the enemy tanks were in place right when my infantry got there. I mean they literally pulled into a swarm of engineer and Marine platoons. Lots of close assaults, but I did have to wave charge the T54's, which was messy...

A marginal is nothing to feel badly about. Some of these fights are extremely, I repeat, extremely tough.

I think you did well. I just recently found out through documents declassified, that there were over 40,000 Russian soldiers, tanks, artillery and aircraft on the island along with some atomic warheads. Maybe we were closer to the brink than we realized!

I was quite pleased with my overall score; most of the marginals during the game were my fault. Especially when I got my platoon bombed...

I'm in the second scenario of the special ops branch. Fun!

I'll be playing this campaign many times.

That is just great! I must have played it at least five or six times. I know all the team played it twice.

I can't tell you how much your note means...a great encouragement to me personally and I owe it all to a great team! They worked hard on this. That would include

Sgt. Walrus (Jason Young)
Weeble (Andrew Weaver)
Tom DeShetler "Desh44"
Massimo "Mad Italian" Rocca (who has been with me forever!)
and old Fabio "Tiger" Prado

Thanks men! You made it happen!
