		I figured it was just something worth giving a shot.  My position is more of a 360 degree fortress than a line that I don't allow the AI forces to cross.  I'm basically trying to not lose.  If I win, all the better.  Surviving is not really necessary given the extreme odds.  I just need to inflict heavy casualties on the AI forces.  At this point, it has 34 tanks burning and 10 immobilized with another 24 burning half-tracks.  I'm holding my perimeter at the moment. 
 
One mistake I did make in my set-up was I put a line of wire followed by a line of mines.  The wire slows down the AI units, meaning they hit the mines as their first hex moved.  They are less likely to set one off.  I should have reversed it, mines outside the wire. 
 
My force is three German grenadier companies, nine 50mm ATGs, bunkers to hide from artillery in, six pillboxes and artillery.
