Pros:
  • Local Comms only continues to be fun
  • Entire squad had no negatives and enjoyed the operation immensely
  • Coordination between squads was excellent when setting up garrisons to re-establish communication
  • Briefing was very straightforward
  • Simple operations + good briefings = great operations

Cons:
  • The Germans had too many disadvantages and the operation was a bit of a steamroll

Other Comments:

I would recommend less restrictions on the defensive side and extending the operation to a longer time. A German counterattack after taking the middle point would really be excellent, but this would require extending the operation and switching to Warfare rather than Offensive.

Pros:
  • Great concept, Offensive Mode is seldom used.
  • Fighting was intense and brutal, desperate, which is good for immersion.
  • Great teamwork and Comms system.

Cons:
  • Perhaps more assets could have been available for Axis given the limitation of 1 life at 15 min per strongpoint for the first 3.

Pros:
  • Interesting concepts with local comms and restrictions on 1 life's, needs refinement
  • Crew had some great moments
Cons:
  • Too many limitations
  • Should have gone to last point, match was a bit fast.
  • Tank was left outside and cutoff from infantry support
  • Tank doctrine needs to be disseminated to the masses
  • hot wash was cluttered in TS and not given enough time to complete troopers thoughts, if 5 minutes is said, give the actual five minutes
