To be fair, the Righteous Defenders of Progressive Socialism
also had a discussion about making a mad dash, but we eventually
decided "it's not who gets to the objectives first, it's who
gets there last that counts", so we sat tight and shot, which
turned out (according to Inevitable Historical Necessity) to
have been the right thing to do.

"Heavily"?  Okay, I lost (all) three APCs--after my infantry had
scrambled out.	Unlike the bootlicking lackeys of the
reactionary capitalist running-dog forces, who stayed in their
APCs in what turned out to be a very permanent way.

To be fair also, the decadent enemies of the people were also
contending with my Teske field.  If I recall correctly, of all
the targets I engaged, one APC survived (damaged but not
destroyed).  Not every shot killed, but when one didn't do it, I
always had another one in that activation.

Was that the point where we said "We are prepared to accept your
unconditional surrender" and your two co-commanders said "Sure!"

Thanks for setting it up; now I'll actually have to buy (and,
eventually, paint--schedule that in for 2004 or so) some 1/300
miniatures.
