Soviet Multiplayer Tournament

[mkoki77]

Something strange is happening again..How many prestige you gain per turn...190 or 500? in my game against Braccada it is 190 (turn 7) but against Rag it is 500 (turn 9)? totally different approach of playing...now i am aware ...

[goose_2]

I am experiencing the same thing with my battle with TopGun where we are receiving 500 prestige per round. This makes seizing all objectives extremely difficult as the opponent can replace all losses every single round.

My battle with RAG116 is set up correctly with 190 per round, but I have discovered another bug on this scenario. When the German Opponent seizes all objectives the decisive Victory screen should pop up, but it does not.

My thought is that at this point we just let it play out as is, and probably will just allow this tournament to be over after this round without the bonus Round.

Unless there is tremendous interest in doing the bonus round.

Thoughts?

no bonus round , the only thing I have noticed when I play is even though the hit generator tells you one thing say like a hit of five and I am noticing this in all my games is that I seem to just get 1 or 2 , and I can accept that sometime but seems like all the time, now I dont know if when you play on steam if it auto updates everyones version to the same but maybe thats something we can just ask each player maybe some are playing with a different patch. I also told goose it seems like the at never suffers a disadvantage when moving and thats what its suppose to do when attacking a tank because it does not have a turret, so I dont know if anyone else ever noticed that or its just a coincidence when I am playing, LOL.

Ok Doing a pulse check as I am now finished with the final matches on this multiplayer Tournament.

I was able to do a Decisive Victory for both sides for each competitor.
The hardest was the Soviet side on against TopGun since it was set up with receiving 500 prestige per round, this made it very difficult to finally overcome. But I did it finally on the last turn.

How are the other matches going?

Looking forward to the reports.

Stay Lutheran my Comrades.

The reports are coming in this from Mkoki:

for me situation is almost clear..total loss vs Bracada as German (currently round 20/28) and minor win as soviets (most probable outcome unless I perform some magic)..vs Rag we are almost done(round17/20). my minor as soviets and my minor loss as German.

This from TopGun's other match up versus Braccada

me and bracadda on turn 15 hes up as soviets and I am up as germs , I think or other way around. Good match though.

Just so you know.

It appears Steamroller is just not my game, as I am losing pretty badly to RAG116 as the Germans and it is too close to call with me as the Soviets.

This report just came in from Braccada in his match up with Mkoki
Braccada was able to get a Major Victory as the Soviets and here his final report with his battle with Braccada as the Germans

Finally it is done! Germans could secure victory on the last turn. Luckily the airfield was unprotected. A Soviet scout rushing in could be destroyed and two KVs disabled or blocked. Several bombing runs and 4 AT units cleared the path for my own scout. Good game that with Soviet advantage in the beginning, StuGs in the trenches holding out and a bitter fight for the last German airfields. In the process the Soviets got attritioned down unable to replace lost units.

So with that final message I have all of the matches done for the 5th and final round so I will post the results and final points and standings later today

Unlike the Slitherine Tournament I have no prizes that I can hand out, other than my thanks again for participating and being a part of such a great community of fellow dedicated players.

I am not sure what 2017 will hold, but with a great game and great players to be a part of this new year I know it will be a good one.

And as always...Stay Lutheran My Comrades.
