4 Play PBEM Possible?

[Cross]

Hi Gila,

Thanks. And yes i'll let you know when we start planning a new team battle.

Not sure I understand your question, but teams do not really take it in turns. So whoever is able to play the turn plays it.

However, our team loosely followed a rotation to make sure everyone got a chance to play on a regular basis. When someone wasn't available, another team member played the turn.

When you don't play for a few turns you are kept in the loop by situation reports written by your team. Therefore communication is an important part of this type of battle.

We just finished the battle yesterday. It was SPWW2, not SPMBT.

Here's a sample sitrep I wrote after playing a turn. It was sent to the other members of my 'British' team:


Replay

A German halftrack moved up to the North Hall, Capt Wellington KO’d it with a close assault.
Two German halftracks attacked H platoon (B coy) on Hill 75.

B Coy

Q troop tanks KO’d one of the Halftracks that attacked H platoon.

The crew abandoned the SPAAA as Gene predicted. H platoon reduced the crew to one man, who fled.

H platoon got into a scrap with two 3 man PzGren sections who must be diehard NAZIs.

A Coy

I started moving the ATk Gun and HMG (that we had covering wheat field 15) towards the unprotected northernmost VHex.

Corp Watts’ Cromwell KO’d two PzGren sections east of the Hall.

A British halftrack KO’d a PzGren section and a MMG.

D platoon move to the north side of the church, chasing a PzGren section out of the church. Another PzGren section is still pinned in the church.

Some of E platoon move north to cover the south side of the church.

I moved Major Hornchurch’s HQ troop and the last surviving ‘O’ troop tank, to assist D and E platoons.

Leaving P troop tanks and three halftracks supporting Capt Wellington, the remains of C platoon, and the three sections of G platoon around the hall.

I only see 3 PzGren sections NE of the hall. Two are badly damaged. Watch out for their panzerschrecks!!!

C Coy

Sgt Steventon’s damaged armoured car KO a PzGren section for his 5th kill, then captured the final Vhex in the south.

M platoon moved east to cover that Vhex.

K platoon moved north to cover the flank and the V hex there.

I moved L platoon into reserve. I don’t see the need to move them up to Herlesville at this point.

There are still 3 V-hexes we could capture in the north.

Artillery

The 6in troop are out of ammo.

The 5.5in troop have about 2 dozen rounds between them.

One of the Spits is ‘out of contact’.

No German artillery

Looking good!
