Facebook Users - Help Me!

If my picture gets the most likes by 10pm (US time I think) on Friday I will win some shinny new roller skate wheels for my girlfriend, I have made the picture public so people should be able to like it without being my FB friend. I'm about 160 votes behind the leader so I need a fair bit of help...

[CWC] More units for Vietnam




Saturday 26 May 2012

[CWC] 1967 Reconnaissance in Force.

A reinforced Egyptian Brigade attempts to capture an Israeli regional HQ>



Scheduled air support

A bold advance by the T-55 battalion

BLUE ON BLUE!

The Israeli M-48s start work at long range.


Braving AA the SU-7 tries again

The much battered T-55s get into the cover of the town but not without more damage from the M-48s

The road of death!

Artillery plays havok with the lorried infantry

The ski is full of death!

Finally able to bring the M-48s under fire the arabs start to push them back

The area around the target building is thick with Israeli infantry


An attack on the target building is driven off by AA fire.

Finally the arabs start to take their toll.

Bomb alley continues to be an unfriendly place.

Ariel view of the approach to town


Bombs away!

The flanking reece battalion of PT-76s arrives right behind a completely unaware company of M-48s!

Close range fighting is brutal

A succession of fall backs is taking is toll on the other flank.

Arab forces mass for another push

A wall of armour prepares for a final push



Combat engineers in close combat!

Close call!

The target building surrounded by T-55s

One last attack run nails an SU-100


As turn five ends the Israelis are have lost 9 units out of a breakpoint of 5, the Egyptians have lost 21 out of a breakpoint of 23. The Israelis fail their break test and flee handing a minor victory to the Egyptians!

[FT] Sector HQ Attack

A strong NAC fleet attacks an NSL sector HQ station, both sides were 2000pts the NSL had a sector HQ station and a pair of defense platforms.



Missile defense platform

NSL sector HQ

Half the NAC fleet lead by a Tiger class strike cruiser

The other half of the fleet led by the flag ship a Trafalgar Class Super battle dreadnought.


The missile defense platform opens fire, this is bad.

Deja vu!

Some asteroids drift across the engagement zone

An NAC cruiser is destroyed by the missiles.


A torpedo fighter sqaudron engages the station, however it is heavily protected by PDS.


The two NAC wings converge to attack the station, the NSL ships are still hanging back.

Having exhausted their torpedos purple sqaudron moves into position to protect the flag from any possible fighter attack

The defenders start to engage as yellow fighter squadron makes its attack run

The NSL moves into attack

Heavily damaged by the missile attack the NAC strike cruiser attempts to make its escape.


Those asteroids are going to be a problem...

The fleets are now engaging at point blank range.

The massed fire power of the NAC flag is sufficient to destroy the NSL station.

NAC FTL drives are spun up as the NSL fleet desperately tries to cause some casualties.

Under attack from both missiles and asteroids this frigates future is not bright!

One last casualty for the NSL fleet.





Conclusion:

The NAC fleet made the jump and left the system with the bonus 200pts for destroying the station the score was NAC 942 vs. 542 NSL. It was how ever a lot closer then it seemed the Tiger class ship that escaped only had two damage boxes left and the SDN only had seven boxes left, the SDN would have brought the NSL 911pts!
