Default Re: War Anecdotes

I have one vivid memory from playing the Original SP1. I had been playing a full campaign as the Germans and had managed over the course of the campaign to build up a formidable force of Tigers and Tiger 2's most of which were top elite status along with a good chunk of the infantry, all of which were mounted in SdKfz 251. In essence, the dream Kampfgruppe.

It was a January 1945 battle that ended that dream. Halfway through a game that was going "according to plan" the AI unleashed the entire US air force at me and no matter how many times I replayed the save game my carefully built up formation was absolutely decimated.

And yes, I had that "history was repeating itself" feeling as well
