Issue appears to be fixed, Wegeberg said in-game he updated as well, and when I loaded my turn, the warning did not appear anymore. We should be good, thanks again!

The battle against King T is now concluded with King T easily beating my troops. He plays a very strong game defensively and I have just witnessed some unbelievable moves.

A single panther ran over 3 of my mortar units in one go and another panther receives reaction shots, fires 2 shots off and still runs over my scout unit...........


Thanks for a fantastic matchup KingT, and returns are posted with pass as kingt

The SS hold Thaon 9-8. GG Protectivedaddy, the game was a lot more difficult to defend than it appears though. With that, Bayeux will be done next, so I only have to play against Coreysr on Benouville (game posted, pass kingt).

Indeed, I have not done that before, running over more than one unit of infantry. I assume it's because the Panther was at three stars, and had three shots left. I had to try it when I saw I can do two, and then had to go for three :) (happened at the end).

Later edit: maybe this is a special power for three-star Panthers that's not immediately clear in most games. Otherwise it may be a bug. I'll definitely try it in the future, but in order for it to work, you need enough action points, and three infantry units close by, preferably the kinds that don't respond with dynamite sticks.

Panthers by default have an "Elite Overrun" ability in the Squads.csv file (backend mod stuff not visable on ipad), IIRC. That would enable them to do 3 overruns, in theory.
I think the best way to describe our operations to date is that they have violated every recognized principle of war.

Good to know it's not a bug, I guess it's something I'll do more often with those cats lol. Also, I'd need those Elite Overrun Panthers to head to Bayeux immediately.

Does anybody know of Coreysr's whereabouts? I think I've played all my other matches.

What is rare is having enough AP to do it. The stars (or enemy mortars) must be aligned just right.

We fought to the last man at Bayeux. Sadly, the last man died a couple of rounds too early. :D Someone send more rested troops.

KingT vs Jcb 0-17 Allies win. GG Jcb!

With that, I have finished 5 out of 6, still waiting for Benouville to be picked up.

Lol, true. The stars, and Mortar teams, were aligned on that one. Like I said, had to try it.

I believe this is the GJS finalé, but there is room in the Axis side of the RTT'42 Campaign. It is a Campaign, and not a Tournament, though.

lol... actually KingT, your last man there died grabbing the 3-point flag (that bastard lol). So technically we finished 14-3.
I should have ordered the English Horde in the area to hold fire on that poor man until we could rush him.

Yeah, but there were still two turns left to go. So if you wipe out the enemy you get all flags I think, so 17-0. I mean i don't think a side can hold key points without men.
