Good game. It was wet and tiring, and I didn't plan for the camping *at all* but it was good to come out.
I feel like I missed out on the game, though, being stuck in the Axis HQ as commander. Walking back after the game I saw the fortifications Junto and Eurodus had at the Cross roads and the field and kinda wish I was out there.
We started the game off late so they had already secured our commo array area, the bridge, the river, the cross roads, the city and the North Fort before we knew what was going on, but we recovered and even got close to taking the city mid-way. With the water like it was, it was hard for us to get across to get to the commo array, and we were without mortars for the first half of the game.
About 2/3rds through the game a lot of the guys left either due to hunger, weakness, injury, weapon malfunction or other time issues, and we just lost the will to win.
After that, we let down our guard and just tried to hold on to our front line, allowing the enemy to send small groups to harrass us from the rear. I survived two near deaths at the command post.
Good points:
organized pre-game start up, chrono, and getting the game started relatively on time
Good ability to adapt to in-game realities, such as moving around CCP's and layout of the game to make it better.
Improve points:
Confirm with both commanders that the game is about to start and make sure they know it
Give 10 strips of tape to each commander to let them assign their own engineers and demolitions
allow alcohol at the camping
Having objectives that are right on the spawn point (such as me being a target, but controlling the spawn point too) made it difficult
Let the commander move out of the HQ.
On the map, the distance seemed the same from our spawn to the cross roads or city, as their spawn, but it wasn't. We had to respawn up a giant hill and they could run across a grove of trees. We held the trenches a few times and eventually got pushed out as they were respawning 20 seconds later.
