From the time that you claim a battle, you have 7 days to complete the battle and submit a battle report. If no report is received by the end of day 7, then the battle goes back into the queue, and any other commander can claim it.

barca Posted March 10, 2017 Author Report Share Posted March 10, 2017 Peiper gave his all for the Fatherland. Posthumously awarded the Knight's Cross with Oak Leaves, Swords and Diamonds Despite his demise, Peiper's KG stubbornly held the crossing on the Meuse. The British armor fought valiantly, but could not retake the bridgehead before nightfall.

ZEKE Posted March 23, 2017 Report Share Posted March 23, 2017 I am stopping by tonight. I would be more for Early War practice, I still have to get used to certain rules. As for firestorm, I think there is only 1 game left and that is Lazarus' game. He started a new job that he is getting used to and he most likely will not show up tonight.

ZEKE Posted March 30, 2017 Report Share Posted March 30, 2017 yeah, Lazrus & I were thinking of playing this one out today. Unfortunately my gut is acting up today and I am going home early. So, if anybody can come up with a 1250 US or British force, Lazrus is still wanting to play the German side. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
