Gentlemen I have issued two challenges in v1.22 with the password "orto" for anyone to pick up.

Monsoeren has beaten me handsomely and I am now ready for another challenge.

FYI some of you guys may have read chatter about 'improved engineers' for GJS'44, Ninjas and NAM/Guadalcanal... Just to assure those of you that don't like changes to plain vanilla BA, I'm not going to inflict these on you for Ortona... It's a mostly urban map, so the extra functions would have little to zero impact on your battles... Unless you find any huuuge errors, I won't do anything else to Ortona until you're done... Good luck gentlemen! ;-)

I am currently on a business trip to Latvia and will be staying the weekend in Copenhagen so for those of you with whom I've got games in progress (Arctic, Gort and Reform) please spare with me. I'll resume on Sunday.

No worries - this will allow me to hang on for a day or two longer (tho the outcome is not in doubt...) :D

Game over:

arcticpost (Allies) vs gortwillsaveus (Germans)
Allies Win

I could kick myself. I overran all of his troops,..but he held back enough to annihilate my stupid advance.
Great persistence in not giving up, even when it appeared it was a lost cause. Hats off to articpost.

I know what you mean on this one, I made exactly the same mistake with the Germans in one of my Ortona games in this tournament and the Allies won.

Congrats to articpost!

Since it's quiet in here and I don't have any battles to play anymore, I'll deviate a bit from the topic (sorry for that in advanced :) ), as I have just started to play Husky MP maps. The Ambush! has only one flag, and while I have no idea what it's like it could be a future tournament map. Think Ortona-ish with just one flag.

Anyway, see you all later, in games.

Thank you gentlemen. It's been a pleasure learning from each of you. I knew once I saw the quality of player accepting this tourney I'd be lucky to walk away with even one win. Underline lucky.
