Time for me to win one

FierceKitty · 13 September 2019, 07:32:30 AM

Lee demands a rematch. I've been seriously outscouted by those wretched Hungarians and Croats. Uh oh, as we Prussians say.

Good luck mate

Take care

Andy

I think scheisse might be a more appropriate response.

FierceKitty · 13 September 2019, 09:11:58 AM

We'd probably be swearing in French.

FierceKitty · 13 September 2019, 09:50:48 AM

Off-table flank march; Frederick himself is out of it, and our morale is not looking good. Remind me not to play on Friday 13th again!

FierceKitty · 13 September 2019, 10:27:41 AM

Oh, dear....

mmcv · 13 September 2019, 12:58:37 PM

Well at least you got one...

Leman · 13 September 2019, 01:30:02 PM

And Frederick does have a habit of bouncing back - a bit like Alan Partridge I suppose.

FierceKitty · 14 September 2019, 10:28:50 AM

Here they come.

FierceKitty · 14 September 2019, 10:30:33 AM

My advance. I was being quite aggressive, knowing from a glance that the Austrian shortage of cavalry could only mean an off-table flank march. But I also knew there was only one place where it could have come on - idiot that I am, I took no precautions.

FierceKitty · 14 September 2019, 10:31:56 AM

I kept a reserve of veteran cuirassiers, true to my beliefs. But not facing the looming danger.

FierceKitty · 14 September 2019, 10:34:43 AM

The Prussian skirmishers have rifles; I was hoping to bag an Austrian commander before things got heated. But the rules don't let skirmishers stand their ground in good going when it's clear they're in danger of being ridden down, so those Hungarian hussars sent them running.

FierceKitty · 14 September 2019, 10:36:25 AM

And here you can see the crack in the Prussian line. Since Frederick was captured, the whole army had to test morale, unit by unit; it was clear after this that we didn't have a chance.

I think the only hope is to redefine 'winning'...

FierceKitty · 14 September 2019, 11:10:19 AM

I'll try that.

mmcv · 14 September 2019, 11:48:28 AM

Golf rules, lowest score wins?

Lord Kermit of Birkenhead · 14 September 2019, 12:16:41 PM

Is it a subconscious ting - you are playing to lose cause you are playing Lee ?

FierceKitty · 14 September 2019, 12:22:12 PM

You give me credit for being more of a gentleman that I am, I fear. Sadly, she's getting too dam' good at it.
