New profile, an unexpected crate drop.
The crate claimed that it had field manuals in it when I grabbed it. I guess pie gives everyone 5 experience. “You haven’t lived until you’ve eaten pie in the middle of an active battlefield.”
Here the 3rd play on a new profile. Kind of just let things happen without a real battle plan.
Guess it was still a decent game since I could have been overrun a lot sooner.
Was fighting the forest as much as the enemy. Eventually both won.
First game in a long time, and only got about 30 or so waves in just playing passively and with no real strat in mind (and I call myself an urb vet XD)
Spread out my guys at the beginning, all of which had under 20 rifle except for one who had 31, across what was basically an empty field with 2 small trees and a ditch and just worked on upgrading their weapons over time (Garand and Carbine to those with okay rifle, smgs, bar and shotties for the others). Eventually called in an officer (need that concentrate fire option), engi and medic (following the first death). Other than an early German pioneer that managed to slip through, my men were doing pretty well for themselves for the first 25 or so waves, killing even those infiltrators and brandenburgs that showed up. Eventually, however, the weight of numbers and German grenades were the end of me.
Managed to score the maneuver ribbon, though considering I played on a work computer it’ll be a toss up whether my profile will still be there when I get back. Still, always fun to see how far one can get on a fresh profile.
For a new profile play (I am sure we have a topic just for that around here) that was a very good game.
End around wave 30 is OK. Not even pro mnb2’ers usually get more then 50 waves.
Nice AAR with “patrol report sheet” a’la Recon.A cut down of a great long game early (4th try) in the profile.
Lots of URB and Rewards to show. Have fun watching.Despite early rough going that almost ended me at mere wave 30ish the game was rather good later on until the bunker suddenly blew.
One Tiger Tank basically did me in. This is a cut of that game. Have fun watching.Up next in the run for those real shiny ribbons.
Somehow if the game can not beat me my own men will.To continue my run I present this years Halloween episode.
Good game with a mad Sarge giving his men more hell then the undead ever could.So my new strategy has been proper planning or close protection with the Ribbon officer a sniper and a scout I can easily advance 1-10 screens with that set up buying a second sniper and a engineer when TP reached 23(my current cap) then when I come across a mostly clear battlefield I start my strategy. it starts with a trench just above the midline and a bunker with the instakill hitbox below the midline so indirect fire is curbed. then I purchase 2 gunners and 3 medics and stack them in the trench leaving the medics just slightly further out so they draw fire. then i purchase a cam net and place it between the bunker and the very bottom of the screen this is where the damage dealers will live I proceed to purchase a tank and then two m3 ATGs and a second tank and put gunners on the tanks. I place the tanks in the middle of the cam net and then the m3s on either side with the none sniper units under the cam net. I then place AT mines down either side from the bottom to just above the bunker to prevent 222s from making my tanks team kill. this is the end result of this run.
Great show Alex. To bad that there are so few replies. I think I beat you by a few waves here.
This is my X-Mas play for 2018. Still going for them 100 waves + ribbons. Game 11 and almost 1100 waves so I think that I am an a good streak here.@Lance: Nice, fierce deployment sustained by top gunners and a good AT backing. I never get so far, partly because I like fooling with other strategies less utilized units.
