Got a PBEM game going with Airdrop in Combat Mission Black Sea, coming down to the last 20 mins or so of game time... been moving, scouting, and probing for a while now... all units in position, time for:
The artillery Barrage:
Then the main assualt:
And the reserves... if needed, haven't even committed them yet:
but leading up to all this had some good action too:
I send my T72 to the rear to destroy/delay/breck his re-enforcements, but the flank was exposed and he took a Javelin missile to the top side: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r_unryacwG8
Another one of my T72's take a hit, and then a big secondary explosion... I back my remaining MBT's up till I can't find and kill the Missile Launchers: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rX6diHjM4jA

This game is really fun. I love it. I think it is my favorite so far except maybe the original CM Afrika Corps.
I do have the blood of a lot of kids on my hands though. The arty decimated my plan to capture/hold the victory locations.
"For I know the plans that I have for you," declares the Lord, "plans for welfare and not for calamity to give you a future and a hope." Jeremiah 29:11
Blessed are you when people insult you and persecute you, and falsely say all kinds of evil against you because of Me. Matthew 5:11
Indeed we call blessed those who have persevered. You have heard of the perseverance of Job, and you have seen the purpose of the Lord, because “the Lord is compassionate and merciful. James 5:11

Talk about a F' up on my part... that 1st artillery barrage was on target and perfect, my second one came too late, after I did my assault... ended up calling fire on my own troops. Opps!

I can neither confirm or deny having ever done this myself!
