Oh yeah guys, we should really consider postponing the Saunders Match until Wednesday. Unless you want to use the Chi-ha for the match.

>>30102310
Schteel, can you clarify what the upper limit is for tanks in each round of the tournament? There was some confusion about that after last thread. It would be great to know how we should prioritize getting crews together.

>>30102310
> Boast

>>30102420
The next match the cap limit is 10

>>30102420
To clarify, the limits for each match go like this.

10 - Round of 64
10 - Round of 32
15 - Round of 16
15 - Quarterfinals
20 - Semifinals
20 - Finals

>>30102419
I think the date's fine where it is. We want the Rifles to get used to their T-34 soon, right? What better way then in a casual match? They aren't completely unfamiliar with it like the Poles with their Hellcat.

>>30102446
Thank you Schteel.

You pick up Griselda in a great hug, spinning around and laughing. “I am! Haha!” You put her down, grinning. “What are you even doing here, Griselda?”

Griselda dusts herself off, giggling a bit. “Oh, we have a project in school. The teacher wants us to study a particular aspect of high school and I figured what better way to do it than to just come and visit and make the popular girls really jealous of me!”

“They must be so jealous.”

“They’re so jealous, they jiggle when they walk,” she says. You two of you laugh at that. You look over to see your staff and Kitten coming up the stairs to you. Griselda gasps, opening her arms out wide. “KITTEN!”

Kitten’s eyes widen in surprise. “Grisel-“ She’s immediately tackled to the ground by Griselda.

Lisa and Nancy look confused.

> Introduce Griselda
> Allow her to introduce herself
> Other

>>30102478
The thing is we won't be able to assign the tank until the next practice. So their stuck with the Chi-ha.

Not to mention it's the last time they used that tank it was a SU-76 is I recall and while the controls may be similar, will still have a different feel then the Chi-ha, Su-76, and the Bt-42.

Not to mention Threater Tech crew might be interested after the play so we can recruit and put them in a tank and practice with Saunders

>>30102510
Fair point. I mostly just want it before our tournament match, and a weekday may be a tight squeeze. Ya, we should call Kay and ask, I think your right about postponing it.

>>30102526
> Introduce Griselda

>>30102526
>> Allow her to introduce herself
Sure why not

>>30102526
> Allow her to introduce herself
She's not shy.

>>30102510
Don't quite get the reference is it because their not used to the controls or is it because the experience with the CHi-ha isn't that good?

>>30102532
>SU-76
SU-122 actually, which was directly converted to the current T-34 configuration due to their request of wanting a turreted tank.

>>30102585
Yeah, that. In which they got the Chi-ha 120mm in which is not very good and no one wanted to improve it since it was only temporary.

I remember now, sorry for the mistake.

If the Threater Tech Club joins they will have to Choose between the Stuart or the Chi-Ha

>>30102526
>Allow her to introduce herself
>Help Kitten back up

>>30102616

Or we could fix up that Sherman into a M4A4 so we can get on track into getting a Firefly.

> Allow her to introduce herself

Griselda rubs her cheek against Kitten’s. “Oh, Kitten! It’s been so long!” She stands her back up and pecks Kitten on the cheek.

Kitten smiles. “Oh, yeah, it’s really been some time. Griselda. What are you doing here?”

“Oh, I’ll take any excuse to visit an Academyship, Kitten!” She looks over at the rest of your staff. She offers her hand, smiling politely. “I’m Griselda, Gertrude’s younger sister.”

Nancy smiles, shaking her hand. “Nancy Whitmore, Sophomore Vice President.”

Lisa shakes Griselda’s hand next. “Lisa Cowell. Treasurer.”

Ramirez shakes her hand last. “Ramirez, Secretary.”

Griselda looks over at you. “Are these your crewmembers?”

You nod. “Best I can ask for. How about we all get to school?”

The six of you head down the stairs and onto the street.

>>30102696

I'd much prefer it than having the theater tech crew choose between a bad tank and a worse one, especially after all the effort involved getting rid of the Stuart in the first place.

>>30102478

really should postpone it a few days.

>>30102697

Whoops, sorry, that should be the 24th.

>>30102714
The Stuart is not a bad Tank what everyone kept arguing last thread (from what I can tell) is that the Hellcat was more suited for Polish team since they desired either high speed or heavy power.

They got both with the Hellcat.

The Stuart is a good tank for it's role as a scout

>>30102669
>>30102697

Supporting.

>>30102756

Which no one disputed, it's just that now we need to work on being a less crappy commander, we need to actually use our scouts as scouts.

>>30102756

The Hellcat is better, because it's both faster and only somewhat (mainly lengthwise) larger than the stuart, it could easily fill the scouting role. It is demonstrably inferior to the Hellcat, the only advantage it could claim is that it's a bit smaller. Rather have the Sherman than the goddamn Stuart.

>>30102783
We did okay during the Ace match, and the match with Willaim Adams their was no need for scouts but rather taking a certain point and holding it.

We only had two matches, Trude is still learning

> Call Someone (Kay)

“Say, Lisa. We got some spare money. Would you mind putting it into the Treasury?”

You take out your phone and quickly dial up Kay.

“Moshi moshi!”

“Hey, Kay. It’s Gertrude.”

“Ah, Gertrude! Good to hear from you! How are you doing?”

“Doing great. My sister’s here actually!” Her eyes are sparkling at the fact that she knows you’re speaking with the Captain of the Saunders Senshadou team. “Just visiting. I wanted to talk to you though about our match.”

“Ah, want to reschedule?”

>>30102832
>> Y(24th)

>>30102791
I won't argue against that, though since it's a open top turret, it might be slightly more easier to take out as well.

If I recall Perrine said that damage calculations still consider the Hellcat to be open top and thus more slightly more easier to take out.

Again I'm not arguing with you but that is just another factor to consider.

>>30102832
> Y (24th)

>>30102832
>Y

Wendsday

>>30102870
Both have paper for armor, it's not really going to matter because the main defenses for both is essentially not getting hit in the first place.

>>30102897
True but if they get caught in the vacinity of a HE shell, I think it may be consider an out rather then the stuart.

and again that's if they get caught within the radius of an HE Shell.

>>30102832

>Y(24th)

>>30102808

I know that, but the point still stands that we aren't exactly a Rommel tier commander.

>>30102832
>T (24th)

>>30102940
True, but Rommel had spent a good 10 years as a infantry officer, then in the 20s and 30 wrote his tactics that were used on tanks though originally about Infantry, her was finally able to use his skills in the late 30s and early 40s and been in many battles in France and North Africa.

Trude had two months of Tankery under her belt and read a shelf worth of books.

Rommel Tier is very far away

>>30102910
First, the HE shell need to actually hit the open-topped turret, by which point you might as well use an AP shell. HE round aren't as powerful as you seem to think they are (unless you're dealing with shit like the 152, at which point you're screwed anyway because your tracks are out).

Second, good luck hitting it on the top turret instead of aiming for somewhere on the thinly armored hull. An HE actually being used against the Hellcat as opposed to a conventional AP round makes no sense unless you're somehow run out of AP ammo or dealing with a howitzer, in which case they're more likely to take out your tracks, which is still a death sentence for both tanks.

>>30102940
Okay, I'm getting pretty sick of your attitude, guy. What exactly do you want us to do about it? What do you want us to do to deal with our poor tactical acumen? We're trying our best! And improving our lineup is part of how we're covering for it.

> Y

“Can we do it on the 24th?”

“Thursday the 24th, sure! That’s actually a couple of days before your match with Christie, that’s daring of you!”

“… sure it is. That’s my plan.”

“It isn’t, is it?”

“No, but hey.”

“Anyway, will do. I’ll sight us a nice battlefield and let you know a few days ahead. Like I said, I’ll arrange for transport too.”

“Thanks, Kay.”

“And let me know if you want to reschedule or cancel altogether. I’m flexible you know!”

You say goodbye then hang up. Griselda says, “Wow! Kay from Saunders High School! How do you know her?”

You shrug. “I saved a Sherman for her. Well, most of a Sherman. It’s sitting in our hangar.”

Griselda whistles. “Groovy!”

At that, you receive an email. You decide to quickly skim it.


TO: Gertrude Pool (Fwd)

This is a general message to all Student Council Staff. Due to your excellent performance academically and for putting on a good example for other students to follow, you will be given 10 Vacation Days.

Spend them wisely. If you wish to earn more, please see the Attendance office.

Keep up the good work!

>>30103011
HE rounds don''t need a direct hit, if they can hit a position near a crew like hitting a building and causing debre to fall ontop of a tank will most likely be consider an out.

You say that like they need some overly complicated way to use the HE round instead of hitting them in their incredibly thin hull armor.

Your crew leaves you, and even Kitten elects to go to class. At least she only has the morning class in Radio Comms. She’ll be off before lunch definitely.

Griselda is giddy as a dog with a bone as you lead her to your Tankery HQ. You open up the warehouse and sure enough, she’s just about had it.

“OH MY GOD LOOK AT THIS!” She looks at you, surprised. “It’s only been two months! Where did you get all these tanks!?”

You say, “Hard work and dedication.”

Griselda trots up the line. “I’m guessing the M4A1E8’s yours. And there’s the Churchill, a Stuart, a KV-85, a Hellcat… Is that a King Tiger with the original production Porsche turret?”

You nod. “Yeah.”

She rubs a hand on the Zimmerit pasted frontal hull. “Where did you get it!?”

“It was on sale,” you say simply.

“Wow! It’s- Wow! I mean-“ She puffs her cheeks, trying to find words for it. “This is one of the most famous heavy tanks ever produced! I’ve only seen this at NOVA Tank Museum but seeing it here- I mean.”

“Form words, Griselda, it’s not difficult,” you say as you place your hand on her shoulder. “Admittedly, I don’t really know much about the King Tiger other than it being a heavy tank.”

“… and we’ve got a Panzer IV F2.”

Griselda nods. “Yeah, the tank that won the match.”

“Yep. Our resident Ace crew was piloting it during the whole thing, we moved them onto the King Tiger. Our newest crew is in the F2 now.”

“Who’s running it?”

“A load of Girl Scouts. They’re inexperienced mind you, but hopefully I can whip them into shape. Especially with our match with Christie Tech so soon.”

Griselda nods. “I see you haven’t gotten the L/48 gun. It’s a marginal difference I suppose. But hell, the Panzer IV is an excellent tank.”

You nod. “And we’ve also got the StuG III and the Sentinel. They’re also piloted by some of our newer crews, the Merchant kids and the History club.”

Griselda asks you, “Are the History Club kids just as snobby as mine?”

“Oh, they’re not that snobby.”

You both walk back to the warehouse entrance. You gesture towards all the tanks, sweeping them with your arm. “And that’s the LGA Line up.”

Griselda says, “Quite the line up. Didn’t think you’d have this many tanks so soon.”

“Oh, don’t guilt-trip me, Kitten. We can meet up for lunch later, how’s that sound?”

You say, “Welcome to the campus!”

The campus grounds are more bustling than a Popeye’s on Black History Month. Griselda looks incredibly out of her element. You wrap your arm around her and start pointing out the various buildings.

“That big building over there is the English Department, that one over there is Math, Science, and Tech, and over there we have General Studies for stuff like History. And over there is the Electives building.”

Griselda asks you, “So where’s the Administration stuff?”

You say, “That’s in the Command Tower.”

“Really?” She looks over at the Command Tower, towering like a tower right over the campus. “That’s something! I mean, it’s huge! But it’s really something!”

Griselda shrugs, blushing a little. “Oh, there’s a nice boy I walk home with but I get the suspicion he only really wants me for sex. You ever get that?”

“This is a Girls Academy. All the time.”

Both of you laugh as you knock on the door. Kitten opens up the door, greeting you all. “Hey there, Kitten,” says Griselda.

Kitten says, “Hey you two. Where we going to have lunch?”

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Freudian_slip

Basically, it's saying what's on your subconscious instead of what you meant to say. I was joking about Gertrude and Kitten's illicit (alleged) lesbian relationship, and by saying "eat out Kitten" instead of "eat out WITH Kitten," it was a joke on the allegation that Gertrude wants to hop on the /u/ boat with Kitten.

Then, further working the joke by saying "Freudian penis" while "meaning" "Freudian slip."

A Freudian slip is when you say one thing but you mean your mother.

> Cafeteria

You spend the rest of your walk back to the campus catching up. Kitten and Griselda talk a bunch of shit about the World of Tanks and War Thunder metagame while you simply lead them on, not really understanding what the hell they’re saying.

At least until Griselda says, “Oh, I’m almost forgot!” She reaches into her backpack and pulls out a wrapped gift. “Here, Kitten! Happy Birthday!”

Oshit is it-

“It’s not my birthday, Griselda,” says Kitten as she takes the gift. It’s boxy, definitely could be anything.

Griselda wags her finger. “Oh, when am I going to be visiting again? Your birthday’s on the 27th after all. Right, Gertude?”

You nod. “Yeah!” You sigh in relief. You hadn’t forgotten Kitten’s birthday. Though you should probably set something up for that.

> SUBQUEST UNLOCKED
> Unfortunately, the song is copyrighted.
> Set up and celebrate Kitten’s birthday

Griselda says, “You can open it now if you want to.”

Kitten says, “I’ll do it later.”

You arrive in good time at the cafeteria. Smells like the Sophomore lunch. You all get your lunches of chicken salads with some sliced strawberries, then sit on down next to your staff.

“Hey, President! Nice to see you!” says Nancy.

“So, girls, how are you doing?”

Nancy says, “Oh, everything is lovely. School’s been pretty relaxing thus far.”

Lisa nods. “Yep. But we’ve still got work to do. It’s not all fun and games.”

“I suppose it’s not,” you say. Griselda is sitting next to you. “So, Griselda. What do you think of LGA so far?”

Griselda says, “It’s great! The only thing I’m really missing are boys my age but I suppose I can get past that. And it’s a real hell of a thing you doing Tankery too! I’m impressed!”

You nod. “Of course, Griselda. What kind of sister would I be if I wasn’t an example for you to follow?”

Kitten says, “A bad one?”

“Sure, thanks, Kitten,” you respond.

As your girls begin talking about LGA and describing the experience to Griselda, you start on a new book of yours. You purchased this one way back in the day and yet you’ve only now just started to get into it. It’s the memoirs (fictional or otherwise, you can’t tell) of an SU-76M crewman on the Eastern Front of World War II.

> Bare Arsed Ferdinand: Progress: 10%

Quite a quirky narrator. Seems to love repetition as well.

Griselda says, “I’m still so excited to attend LGA next year!”

Nancy nods. “We’ll be happy to have you, Griselda! It really is nice a place for girls.”

“Say, Gertrude.” Griselda looks over at you. “What do you think of LGA?”

“It’s the best thing since sliced bread, Griselda. Can’t wait to have you aboard.”

Griselda smiles. “Really?”

“No.”

She smirks, gently punching you in the arm. “Oh you. But you know what, Gertrude, I will get onto LGA and I promise you I will be a great annoyance to you and Kitten.”

You nod. You can just imagine what Griselda will do to get between you and Kitten. That’ll be fun.

ALARM

Nancy says, “Oh, that’s us gone then. We should go.”

Lisa nods. “It was nice talking with you, Griselda.”

Griselda smiles brilliantly. “See you guys!”

You show Griselda the statue of the Marquis de La Fayette in the center of the campus. “And that’s Lafayette himself. They say if you spin his spurs that it’s good luck on whatever endeavor you’re after.”

Griselda’s eyes light up, gasping. She hops over to the statue then spins the spurs. “Yay!”

Kitten asks her, “What do you need good luck for?”

“Oh just that a nice boy will ask me out on a date!” Griselda slaps her hands on her cheeks, giggling. “I know it’s hopeless considering I’m a total nerd but a girl can dream can’t she?”

You say, “In your case it is hopeless, Griselda.”

You’re about done with the statue when you encounter the Aces and the Delinquents, walking to lunch together. They’re actually chattering pretty amicably. Kate says, “Hey, Gertrude. Who’s that?”

“Luciano, Kate. This is my little sister, Griselda. She’s visiting from D.C. She’s going to be wanting to come to LGA next year.”

Luciano says, “Why would you want to-“ She’s interrupted by an elbow to the gut from Joanna. Luciano coughs, gritting her teeth. “I mean, lovely to have more freshmen, I’m sure.”

Michelle says, “Well, it’s lovely to hear that you want to attend LGA. You going to go into the Tankery program?”

Griselda nods violently. “Oh, of course! I know all kinds of things about tanks! Tanks this, tanks that-“

Kate snaps her finger. “POP QUIZ! DATE OF THE M45 PERSHING INTRODUCTION!”

Griselda shouts, “JULY 1945!”

Joanna shouts, “TOP CROSS COUNTRY SPEED OF THE PANZER III AUSF N!”

“20 KILOMETERS AN HOUR!”

Michelle shouts, “MAIN ARMAMENT OF THE PANZER II AUSF. J!”

“20mm KWK 38 L/55!”

The three Aces all step back a bit, pensive. They look over at Wendy and Octavia. Wendy says, “What?”

Buchalter says, “That’s quite the geekiness here.”

Kate says, “Regardless. They’re correct. You do know your shit.” Griselda beams, stars practically shining in her eyes. Kate says, “Anyway, we oughta head to lunch. Feel free to join us, eh?”

“Oh, so you’re up against Walter Christie?” asks Griselda.

You nod. “Yep. I actually know Perrine. She’s pretty nice.”

Griselda nods, saying that, “Perrine Hobart is one of the most well-known Unlimited League champions. She’s won a lot of titles for Walter Christie. Not to mention her appearance on Top Gear and the fact that she got to meet Obama but still, that’s quite the adversary.”

You all walk around campus, taking the sights and sounds. Professors walking by, students running late to class. All that good stuff. School’s actually just about to end.

However, you do show Griselda a few things like the insides of the various Department buildings. You note that the Medical building is staffed mostly by Naval Studies Medical students.

“Think you’re going into Naval Studies, Griselda?”

Griselda shakes her head. “Nah, not much of a fan of that. I’m a fan of free education but having to take an eight hour shift on top of it? Don’t think I’d survive.”

ALARM

With that, school’s over.

Kitten checks the time. “Ah, I gotta get to rehearsals. You going to come with me, Trudy?”

“So you’re a Play Director too?”

You say, “I’m all kinds of things, Griselda,” as you enter into the auditorium. The set has more or less been finished. The Sewing Club pretty much has all their costumes together. Kitten meanwhile runs off to get dressed into her costume.

Griselda asks you, “What’s Kitten’s role?”

You say, “I’ve completely forgotten but I’m sure it’ll come to me later.”

Octavia comes over to you. “Hey, Director. Hey, Griselda.”

“So, we dress rehearsing?” you ask.

“Well,” Octavia shrugs. “If you suppose. I’ve pretty much ironed out everything you wanted. This is now a satirical comedy of sorts.”

Griselda asks, “What play are you doing?”

“Red Dawn: The Musical.”

“That piece of shit?” asks Griselda.

You nod. “Precisely why it’s now a comedy.”

Octavia nods. “We’re just getting set up. Feel free to take a look around.”

As you, Griselda, and Octavia walk around as the Theatre Tech kids set everything up for rehearsals, you talk to her about your dream. “So, Octavia. I had this wild dream some nights ago, and I got some weird advice from the Muse of Comedy.”

Octavia looks at you like you just grew a second head. “Really? What did she tell you?”

“That anything is funny if you say it right.”

Octavia nods. “I suppose that’s neat advice. I’ll pass that onto the actors. We’ve been having some trouble with comedic timing if I’ll be honest. So what do you mean by anything is funny if you say it right?”

“Penis.”

Octavia covers her mouth, chortling. “Okay, hehe. You got me there.”

You smile smugly. “I try.”

Griselda gasps. “Is that a T-34?” You all look over at the T-34, which has been styled out to look like one of the Soviet tanks. Probably meant for the Colonel’s death scene.

Octavia nods. “Theatre Tech spent a lot of nights working on it. Don’t worry, Gertrude. Once the play’s done, we’ll return it immediately.”

You nod. “Thanks, Octavia.”

You and Griselda sit down in the audience. Intent seeing this rehearsal played out. The Freshmen stand just below the stage, quickly making sure their instruments are tuned correctly. You quickly tell Griselda that those Freshmen are in command of the Churchill tank.

“Neato,” she says.

You turn to the stage and shout, “Right! Ready when you are.”

Tara plucks her banjo a bit, an idle tune to signal the curtain call.

…

…

…

All things considered, that play actually left you and Griselda in stitches. Sure, the ending actually got quite dramatic, but you think that’s an essential part of the satire, especially since it still contained a few clever jokes here and there.

As the actors come out to practice taking their bow, you and Griselda give a very light standing ovation to them.

Octavia walks out on stage, smiling. She looks over at you. “So, what do you think, Gertrude?”

Kitten, try to enunciate a bit better and speak loudly for all to hear. Your singing is great, your speaking’s a bit soft. Everyone else, you’re doing alright!”

All the actors and theatre tech girls nod and chatter excitedly.

Octavia says, “Alright, that ends today’s rehearsals. You all can go home. Remember, tomorrow we’ve got a dress rehearsal at 7 O’Clock sharp. If you ain’t there, I will find you and I will kill you.”

Everyone begins packing up. Kitten heads into the dressing room.

You poke your head in to see lots and lots of nubile teenage girls in various states of dress. Kitten is down to her underwear, busy getting her clothes on. You ask her, “Need some help?”

She nods. “Sure.”

You take Kitten’s skirt and then lift it up her legs, then zip it up for her. Nobody seems to be paying it any mind. These are mostly theatre tech kids and a few of your crewmembers. They’re probably used to this stuff.

“So, Kitten,” you say. “Friday is the day of the play. Feeling confident?”

Kitten shrugs slightly. “Oh… sure.”

You blink. “That doesn’t sound sure.”

“Well,” Kitten says, hesitating. “Admittedly, I am kind of scared. I mean, what happens if I mess up?”

“You won’t mess up, Kitten. I promise you that.” You hug her from behind, wrapping your arms around her as the two of you walk out the door, Kitten now fully clothed. “Besides! It’s a comedy! I’m sure the audience won’t even notice if you mess up.”

Kitten asks, “And if they do?”

You say, “Doesn’t matter, Kitten. The thing about theatre is that you’ve already proven yourself to be way more confident than all of them. Trust me.”

You meet Octavia and Griselda at the door. Octavia says, “I know you might think you haven’t done a lot for us, but really, thank you. Your funding and your generous loan of that tank has really saved this play for us.”

You nod. “Don’t worry about it, Octavia. I’m just a good Samaritan.”

Griselda nods. “That’s my older sis.”

Octavia nods, putting her backpack on. “Anyway, I’m headed home. Catch you at practice tomorrow, okay?”

You nod. “See you.”

Griselda sighs. “Man, I should’ve come here on Thursday. Maybe I would’ve seen you practice Tankery.”

You shrug. “Oh, don’t worry about it, Griselda.”

You sigh. You honestly can’t make heads or tails of anything their Tankery Classic team does consistently. Hell, you just watched the practice session where they used the SU-14-2 as a frontline assault gun. Though, if there’s one thing you can determine at least, it’s that the AVRE seems to have to close to stupidly close range to even use its petard mortar. Perrine must like to work with plans on the fly.

You yawn as you enter your dorm. Time to get cooking. You set down your backpack and throw off your coat, scarf, and blazer. You then roll up your sleeves and start setting up the kitchen counter ready for-

“Griselda, why do you have that fire extinguisher?”

Griselda holds the dorm room’s small but potent emergency fire extinguisher, apparently neutral to everything. “Well, you’re cooking aren’t you?”

Kitten says as she lies on your bed, laptop on her lap, “Gertrude’s actually learned how to cook properly, Griselda. You don’t need it.”

Griselda looks at you, shocked. “Seriously? When did you learn to cook?”

“You learn lots of things on LGA,” you say, smirking. “Now sit back and relax. Let’s just go with a nice simple plate of spaghetti, yeah?”

Griselda looks at you, skeptically. You don’t blame her. The last time you tried to cook something at your house in D.C. you quite literally nearly brought the house down. Dad was not amused.

Regardless, you get through cooking your spaghetti in good time under Griselda’s curious watchful eye. Soon, you hand her a plate of piping hot spaghetti, handing one to Kitten and saving one for yourself as well.

Griselda shyly slurps up a noodle, then says, “Wow, this is good!” She immediately begins digging in.

“Table manners, Griselda.”

As much as I want to read a book, studying tanks with little sister might be better

>>30108379
Well Pre-war Germany didn't have the best tanks in the world but they beat the shit out of everyone for 3 years didn't they?

Surprise attack and attacking their supply and airfields.

Also most people were in a armastice, people spend less money on military so it was a perfect time for Germany who was trying to adopt every new tactic.

France loss because they invested their resources wrong like on the Magionet line

>>30108553
>Surprise attack
Germany and France were at war since 1939 but nothing happened till 1940. They even called it the phoney war it was so boring.

France still had better tanks as well. One reason France lost was crappy tank doctrine. Whether better tank doctrine would have saved them, I don't know. I can say the way they used their tanks was stupid compared to the Germans.

You check out that KV-1, which appears to have a longer barrel than most. It actually looks quite familiar.

Griselda says, “That’s the KwK L/43 75mm gun. Some examples that the Germans captured were fitted with those along with proper cupolas.”

You nod. “Thanks, Griselda. That was confusing me a little.”

> + 5 CP

Griselda looks over at Kitten. “Say, have you opened your present yet?” Kitten shakes her head. “Well you should!”

Kitten says, “I’ll open it up on my birthday, Griselda.”

“Oh come on! I want to see your face!” Griselda looks at you. “Don’t you want to see her face?” She looks back at Kitten. “Come on, open your present!”

Must get a better present.

Sorry, The surprise attack was on Poland.

I remember the Phony War, sorry I wasn't more specific.

In either case, France did spend it's limited resources wrong. Though they did have some of the better tanks in the early 40s, most of them we're still WW1 Ft-17 and other variants that stem off from that.

Also their doctrine sucked which I agreed but that stemmed from the fact it was due to their experience back in the first world war

I'm sorry but calling dad to spend another day is not a good idea, we spend valuable time which might have been better spent/

While it was nice, I'm sure she has other stuff she needs to do.

>>30108719
Agreed. Point I wanted to make was that even if Christie's line up is odd, that doesn't mean they have no chances of winning.

I'd actually say they have better odds than us just because Perrine is an oddball.

>>30108719
lack of air power & coordination didn't help the french either deGaulle almost made a successful counter attack but stukas chewed it up, and it was too late anyway.

>>30108780
O yeah, I'm saying our line up is better but I'm not thinking we're better. Perrine has Tankery experience and depending on the terrain, she can adapt pretty quickly, and won't underestimate us like Willaim Admas did.

I'm interested if Anzio does make it (or did they) to face us. Which is exactly a similar scenario.

I just hope they put up some of their famous tankettes

>>30108780
perrine is as nearly the living embodiment of chaos we have met so far on the battle field. if we can not predict what she'll do, we just can't stop her. unless, that is indeed her tactic.

>>30108869
Maybe with reviewing Walter Christie we'll see some small pattern.

Though a part of me wants to review Saunders, Walter Christie is the bigger priority

Didn't they beat magiont line academy?

Don't they face us next if we win or was that another team?

The brackets if you're curious.

>>30108963
So we may face them in semi finals.

Hahahaha....

Yeah, we're never going to see Tankette girls

Only thing close to it is the Canel Defense lee

>>30108963
German quick question, was this planned or was randomized?

>>30109055
Besides placement of certain teams, everything else was random.

>>30109072
Oh so we could have managed to face Anzio's team early?

Aww curse you dice!

Well at least we don't have to face Pravada or Black Forest for awhile.

and their is the Japanese team.

>>30109098
or worse, we could have faced the Miho with her boy toy and his tank and lose badly.

>>30109150
Different Universe, we checked their team, did not have it

Don't start with that shit. This setting is different from that one.

“Actually, I’d like to see it too, Kitten.”

Kitten says, “But it’s not my birthday, you don’t open presents early. That’s like opening presents early before Christmas.”

Griselda says, “You’re not a kid anymore, Kitten. You’re on an Academyship! Just go with it, yeah?”

Kitten looks at you, thinking. You nod. Kitten sighs, then pulls out the present and puts it on her lap. The wrapping paper is neat and well-done. Definitely not Griselda’s work, probably Dad’s. Kitten carefully tries to pull the tape off so she doesn’t tear the wrapping paper.

…

Griselda shouts, “Hurry up!”

“I want to save the wrapping paper!” says Kitten.

“What are you going to use wrapping paper for anyway!?” says Griselda. “Go! Allez, allez or however you say it in French!”

Kitten rolls her eyes then simply tears the wrapping paper off to reveal…

Kitten lifts up the gift. “A Bandaged Bear.”

Griselda nods, grinning warmly. “I made it at the local Build-a-Bear, check the tag.”

Kitten checks the tag hanging off the ear. This bear has an eyepatch, a bandage over the nose, an arm in a cast, and bandaged wrapped around the head. Kitten reads off the tag, “To the greatest friend of our family. You sure can take a beating, so don’t let yourself get lost.” Kitten blinks, smiling. She opens her arms wide, a tear coming out of the corner of her eye. “Oh come here, Griselda!”

Griselda hugs Kitten deeply, the both of them cheering and guffawing with glee. You smile, simply letting them have their moment.
