Yeah, whenever I get a new cool piece of equipment, someone gets killed driving it. Same thing happened when Vaarne v.1 got the brand new PzIVF2.
But, that was one tough fight in difficult terrain, so casualties were inevitable. Although, I was genuinely surprised at the ease that Panther got popped. It DID have 14 armor.
I'll *try* to update and finish this mission in a few hours. Unfortunately, it's two weeks till christmas and people are going apeshit, which means I'm swamped with work again.
Good thing is we ony have a few missions left, so this LP should be finished before 2012 (-:

Awright. A small update is headed your way.
In the last episode, we were gettign ready to assault the southernmost objective.
Multiple enemy AAs protected by artillery but no real armor. Easy.
First, bombardment time. Psychic snuff the AAs from afar. Merk Moves closer... but first
Well hello there purdy thang.
The Yak 7 is killed. Serrated didn't move this turn, so the 88 fire is very effective.
Anyways...
I'm in poistion, ready to fire.
Damage isn't stellar, but the AAs are all supressed.
Luftwaffe can now join the fun. Unfortunately, eklektyk is out for refit.
I assume you wan't that Katyusha gone?
Done and done.
All right, let me just mop up a bit.
Would be cool if somebody took out that stray arty to the north, by the way.
Dispatching Fallshirmjager. Assist the siege, Azira.
We're on them. Cannot do much damage. Requesting assistance.
Yep. Artillery is pretty good vs. infantry, and that pos is overstrengthened, meaning it's a bitch to kill.
NewBee assists, and the artillery is almost good to go.
We could take that town right here and now, no?
Possible, but it's more prudent to give them a good shelling first.
All right, firing at infantry.
They should feel that one.
They'll just reinforce before our next attack, you know that.
Indeed. But they'll stay put. That counts for something.
Meanwhile up north, a mobile AT gun was threatening our flank.
cBreaker gives it a few shots.
And it succumbs to Carius with ease.
In the meantime, Cassidy shells the nearby bunkers.
with some luck, this'll give us a headstart when we assault the city.
Sitrep time.
The sieges are progressing slowly. Southern objective is almost ready to go, the central one will need a bit more work
It appears we smashed most of the heavy armor, so we should be able to proceed unhindered.
Enemy turn. Not much happens, lone Guardsmen attempt to take advantage of Cassidy being low on ammo,
but are halted in their tracks by our artillery. They withdraw in shame.
Enemy AT near the southern objective takes a few shots at Vaarne, bu the effect is small.
8 turns remain for major victory.
Time to tackle the artillery. Unfortunately, Azira's movement order was damaged during the fighting, so he has to
disengage.
We'll be next to useless like this. We need to stay mobile to assist the Blitzkrieg.
I'll withdraw to the nearest airfield to maintain mobility.
Godspeed. I can handle the artillery.
Easy as pie.
The empty airfield is quickly taken by the SS.
In position to assault the city, Kommand. Give me a firing solution on that target.
That AT has to go first.
Nothing shall stand in our way.
Preparing firing solution.
That city is nothing but rubble right now.
And it is quickly taken. No treat this time.
This objective is secure. We need to press on.
You are not Garf.
Distant cousin. Some say we look alike.
Anyways, I'll spearhead the attack. Let's take some secondaries.
Ia pprove of this. However, securing main objectives is of primary concern.
We shall asssemble a small strike team, but the Northern Kampfgruppe needs reinforcing.
Speaking of which. This is a bit tricky up here. We don't have the reach to handle the enemy arty AND AAs at the same time.
Shitfuck. I can't reach anything with this pitiful range. cBreaker, it's on you.
Relocating. I'll attempt to get to the AA, we can call in the Stukas then.
That's about right.
I'm rolling in.
Hmm. That infantry looks juicy.
Wait, do not engage. There's a katyusha skulking about somewhere nearby...
We'll flank them through the river. Gondolin assist me.
Shitfuck. I think we've found our katyusha.
I see that little circumsized prick.
It's in range. I'll take it out for you.
And gondolin takes out the AA.
Sky is clear. Luftwaffe, assist.
I'm taking that artillery.
Aaand the katyusha. Out of bombs, sorry gents, have to resupply before we have more fun.
Where's eklektyk? Unfortunately, refitting aricraft is a bitch. One turn to move to the airstrip, second turn to refit.
Which means, it's best to keep the planes aout of harm's way, as heavy AA fire puts it out of commission for two turns minimum.
Back to the siege, Anus unloads on the city defenders and the nearby bunker.
Cassidy sweeps the way for the final assault.
And spectre moves in to prevent the infantry from refitting.

I see multiple air contacts incoming.
Brace yourselves, I don't know if I can get them all...
First Derperi s hassled by an IL (not pictured).
Then two bombers bother Gondolin and Carius.
The AA didn't get them all. Both sustain medium damage.
Kampfgruppe, damage report!
Fuhrer protects. We're still standing.
But, we could use a breather if we are to press on.
So, Gondolin and Carius refit. The rest of the team proceed assault the enemy positions at Kursk.
Luftwaffe moves in to strike.
I'm a bit late, but good thing you saved something for me down here.
Derper maneuvers among the bunkers and prepares to mop up the defenders.
We can easily take that objective, but someone's got to do something about those pesky bunkers.
Still have one present left to give. Might as gol to the bunkers.
The Bunker Killer attack is very effective. The bunker is barely standing.
You'll take it from here, I guess. Have to reload.
Spectre and Derper quickly seize the city. Spectre get's a commendation for capturing Kursk.
I'll show you a screenie in a bit.
Nepotism? Don't see no nepotism here.
Anyhoo. We mustn't dally. I'll kill that bunker, the rest of you clean up the advance to the East.
Psychic is sent north to reinforce.
We need more firepower for the final objective. The Brummbar should suffice for the secondary objectives.
Speaking of those...
Recon here. I have intel on the secondary objective.
Almost no resistance. Moving right along.
The enemy is operating from the Eastern aristrip. Give me intel on that.
See what I can do.
The terrain is difficult.
Aaand I found our planes.
They are a vital threat to our attack. I'll take them down.
Odds are crappy.
Fat and juicy target, unfortunately the Amerikwan plane is well protected from aircraft.
I'm striking out of the sun.
Mutterfikker. I need more dakka.
Unfortunately, Katz was only able to weaken the A20.
Enemy turn. No aircraft activity detected. They all returned to resupply and refit.
Our southern group is bothered by a recon tank.
You filthy circumsized Judeprick!
Not much happens apart from this. The enemy recon tanks can be nasty, not only it has decent stats, it's also ovestrengthened.
We have reinforcements. It is also raining, which is a mixed blessing.
Our stukas are both all-weather, meaning we can put some hurt to the enemy still.
Now, let's see what the cat brought in...
A SiG, a PzIv and some infantry. We can make use of that.
Scouting for enemy positions near Kursk.
Oh shit.
Heavy tanks and light recon tank. We need to do something about it.
There's also lone infantry on the road.
The auxilliary troops will tackle them. Slow their advance.
We need just a bit more time to secure defensive positions near Kursk.
Verdammte, that Infantry worries me the most, they may have artillery or AT support nearby.
Cassidy assisted by infantry takes a few shots at the bunkers.
Out of ammo. Your turn.
But Carius is better at this game. The bunker is killed and the path lies open.
Eklektyk and JoKa are sent to harrass the enemy armor.
Not much more we can do in that blasted rain.
The auxilliaries move in, and deliver a bit of hurt.
That'll buy us some time.
Infuriating. Can't do shit in that kind of weather.
Indeed. Enemy Bombers are safe for now. Mixed blessing, as we needn't worry about airstrikes too.
We are ready to seize the objective.
I'll dispose of that T70 first though.
Prudent.
Not much to be said, the lone infantry is quickly dispatched and the objective is taken.
Proud to serve.
By the way, first promotion on the AA looks like this:
Handy. Take 3 base range of the 88, add +1 for "Positioning" VO and we have an impressive 5 range defensive umbrella.
In case you were wondering, the third veteran order is quick-deployment - which means the AA will be deployed automatically after moving. Same as the artillery and just as marginally useful.

Next turn.
The rain has ended.
You know what this means, ja?
It's Stuka reap time.
The auxiliaries help to mop up. These tanks aren't going anywhere.
Since the road is clear, we position our artillery in a marching column. Time to seize the final objective.
And in the meantime, Carius assisted by the arty disposes of an AT that was threatening our flank.
One last thing to deal with...
And we're good to go.
Since you're probably all confused right now, let's look at the map.
After mopping around Kurks, we're very close to the final objective.
I scouted around a bit, the path to the secondary objective to the east looks clear, but we don't have the manpower to take it, should things go not according to plan.
The artillery column is assembled to push towards the objective, that much firepower ensures we can take it on time.
We'll use the auxiliary troops to guard Kursk, just in case someone comes a-knocking.
Now, down south we see Azira's paratroopers defending the objective.The main force down south is slowly approaching the last secodary target in the area. Preliminary scouting has been done.
Reporting on enemy positions. I see a bomber, 15 cm artiellery and a Su76 AT.
Infantry is guarding the main objective. No sign of AA support.
That looks good.
Enemy turn starts promising. A T34 walks into our artillery.
I'll kill you dead, Fokka!
Enemy bombers incoming. I got them.
What's that sound?
Holy mutter, take cover, goddamit!
Shit, this is a full scale counterassault!
Nooo!
Nashorn, respond!
Over?
RIPMCA Cassidy. You will be forever emembered.
Two turns remaining.
We move down south for a bit.
Serrated begins by taking down the A20.
And we swoop in.
Merk has to get close to kill the artillery.
And after that, we're pretty much in the clear.
We drive them back. Victory is almost ours!
Situation is stable here. Which means we can use the Luftwaffe elsewhere.
The Northern Kampfruppe thirsts for blood. The T34 and T35 are quickly dispatched.
Leaving only twisted scrap metal behind, they move towards the objective.
We go no futher!
Kommand, requesting luftwaffe assistance.
Granted. Kampfgruppe, stay together. I want no more surprises.
German and Russian airplanes swarm the sky as our artillery lumbers towards the objective.
Not much happens in enemy turn.
A lone armored car reinforces the defenders.... bad choice of words, it merely get in the way.
And down south the enemy is totally at our mercy.
Newbee Kills the infantry,
And Stsstruppen seize the town.
I cry tears of joy at our well deserved victory..
Men, time for the final push.
No hassle, just take the objective promptly and quickly.
It is also the last turn for major victory.
It all begins with a hail of artillery fire.
Tell me, Hund, does it feel gut?!
Heinz kills one bomber. Probably art for art's sake at this point.
Carius wasily pushes the armored car out of the way.
And luftwaffe kills some of the stragglers. Again, art for art's sake.
Supported by three artillery pieces, Carius confidently takes the town.
The press in Vaterland shall hear of our glorious victory at Kursk!
And it's done.
47 kills, ~4000 potato liberated. Good score.
Debrief
Again, a costly victory. We lost two good oficers and almost lost von Ulm. Thankfully he'll be with us for the next mission, otherwise it would get hairy without air superiority.
Speaking of which, as you could see, we started out good, then we lost air superiority near the end f the scenario. This cost us a bit of time and the life of Cassidy. Bad combination - airstrike + katyusha + overstrengthened T35. Even fully entrenched, Nashorn doesn't have the armor to take that kind of punishment.
We also lost our Panther, almost at the very beginning.
I raged at this, but oh well. Fuhrer giveth, fuhrer taketh.
But, the fighting was tough, no denying that. We took out three big groups of heavy armor.
Kursk was one hell of a nut to crack, especially since anus' artillery had only 3 range - we couldn't
reach some of the targets.
I admit, had I split my forces more optimally I may have captured all the secondary objectives. Unfortunately, I got put off by the casualties and I was paranoid about the enemy recon cars, so I put Azira and HooDoo in reserve.
So, Waffenbruder, let's contemplate our fallen Kameraden and get ready for the next battle.

Yep. I almost didn't notice that at first (beacause yeah 8 green dots vs 10 green dots), but them 2 points seem to really make a difference.
It goes like this, as the war drags on, the equipment that once was rare prototypes becomes more common, going from 8 strength to full 10, and the common equipment becomes much more plentifu and dirt cheap, meaning you can field them in greater numbersl (like the obsolete tanks and artillery with strength 12 to 15)
Nice touch, imo.
Also, I see that the game likes to simulate the Ruskie strength in numbers philosophy with this very parameter. Conscripts and T35 become much more deadly this way.
Also, killing them is a chore, unless suppressed and forced to surrender... but you've already seen this.

That's quite the attrition rate
Respect to the fallen
In some aspects it seems like a modern battle, with the way air power raped our troops when given the chance. Did the Nashorn perform well with range 2 shelling of bunkers ? I always used 88's for that role in previous editions of Panzer General to great effect, so what's essentially a 88 PaK43 mounted on a PzIII/IV chassis should have been quite effective as well in such a role.
I guess the majestic StuG would have survived the aircraft and artillery rape, because it provides such a small target, whereas the "tank-sniping" Nashorn (thanks to special optics it scored kills up to 5 kilometers away) seems of limited use here.
Let me shell some more commies into pulp for my fallen comrades ...

Unfortunately, I have good news and bad news.
The bad news is, unfortunataly, eklektyk was right and my screenshots did not survive the time when codex went under the weather a few months back. Same goes for the saves, but they wouldn't help us much anyway, cause I've pretty much finished the campaign.
I thought we were gone for good and deleted fucking everything(tm) in rage.
The good news is I've finally figured out how to install the configuration package, it's a bit clunky but seems to work.
It also means western front campaigns are now available, as well as a german 20-something scenario mega-campaign, but I don't think I have the stamina for it.

What can I say, i feel guilty about abandoning this LP like that.
The worst bit is starting over, but fuck that. If you guys are still interested, no problems, but there's some stuff to get out of the way first.
a) I need to catch up with work. With some luck we can begin next week. With no luck at all, beginning of April.
b) Since we're starting from the beginning, new recruits will be needed. I can use some of the old crew, but I think it's a nice opportunity for a fresh start.
c) Finally, I need to decide which campaign to play. Ideally something shorter this time. I'm not too keen on playing non-ubermensh, but I can be persuaded to do a quick and dirty campaign as russian, amerikwan or brit
