    9 meg file of a pretty hectic battle Black, Hamma, and myself were in for a hilltop victory point.

    The game is graphically stunning and it is a lot of fun. We were fighting three AI (easy computer setting), but that is a misnomer because the AI is tough. He had made a big mixed armor/infantry push on the hill and caught us napping. He almost overran the position, but som well placed 57mm AT guns held the line along with some paratroopers and a veteran tank Black sent in.

    It was fun...

    So is it just me or can you not just play a game online against the AI by yourself?

    It keeps telling me I need a remote player for the game to start, even though I made the Axis the AI, or closed the slot, put a password on the server, etc..

    Seems a bit off to me, I just wanted to try the game once before being pounded by someone else online.. I guess they're saving versatility for the full release?

    Awesome video too btw.. the whole things feels claustrophobic, like you're really under seige..

    I will make some more soon. Me and Asp got wiped by two AI opponents, so we scaled it back to one and beat it after a brutal fight. We had some sweet artillery barrages dropped on it. There was also some nasty street fighting with AT guns and armored cars and STUgs as well. House to house can be rough.

    We ended up winning a pyrrhic victory though, with us taking more losses than kills.

    Loads of fun...

    I was still in shock by the 20+ tanks the opponent AI had when it was hamma, mani, and myself. We were crapping our pants until bombers and artillery helped take a few out.
