So the axis almost pulled it off. Lost Verviers last turn. Allies just stayed in the other 2 stacks. Could roll them out to see if they get control for the heck of it.

You dont understand……im using a library PC right now…and its gay. It doesnt let me run any installs. Ill just read it at home. I got adobe there. :wink:
Adobe PDF reader is a free download. Everybody should have it:
I updated the PDF. Some of the formatting was a little bit off so re-exported the PDF. The file also seems to be smaller. Can people still see the pictures?
Pictures seem fine. I hope I can make some time to read this tonight.
This was a good read. Thanks for the article Imperious Leader. :wink:

Hello Imperious Leader!
It is a good article!.
Thanks!
great quality, good article, love the quotes.
Brilliant article, but they really lost because of the fast reaction by Patton.
Yes amoung other things that was also true.
Adlertag why dont you post here more often?
We could have used you in AARHE dept.
@Imperious:

I dont want to bore you ladies.
As i said, Sepp Dietrich messed up the attack because he wa a dump who couldn’t read maps, so his 6. ss Panzer Armee forgot to take their first objective Liege, wich was a main supply depot, and instead just fooled around in the forest. On the other hand, von Manteuffel’s 5. Panzer almost succedet in taking his first objectives St.Vith and Bastogne, and would have too if someone else than Patton was in charge of 3. Army.
Patton was an aggressive player, and turned his 3. Army 90 degrees around and counterattacked the Hunns. Montgomery and Bradly was whimps, and wanted to carefully wait and see, with a soft approach. The outcome of this battle was very person based, and with someone else than Patton and Ike , Model would have cashed in.
interresting article

IL, do notice how few words I use to tell the same story as you. In the limitations the brilliant master will show off.
oh yea right… except you left out the History part and kept only the interpretation of it.
