Sorry James, but I don’t agree. 2010 will not be taken from the Axis regardless of any complaining due to new game cordinator.
And as for whinning, how about some of the Axis’s generals complaining about the Allies reinserting at the airfield DZ because they was scared of being attacked from the front and back of Colleville so they made us go to the DZ behind Colleville.
But, Omaha was a sore point for the day. From what I understand it had very little leadership and no pregame planning.

Well first off
-germans won monday, wednesday, and thursday.
-germans were actually outnumberd.
-the alleid commanders are realy sore losers.

So basicly were going to have 2010 tacken from germans because allied commanders are going to whine and cry about it to reffs and game courdnators. 1st infantry this year though was pitifull. It was either totaly nerdy dudes dressed in real 1st infantry crap, or burly overweght rednecks, and ocasionally the good player. O and the 6y.o.s were annoying. Omaha is no place for a little kid.

See you guys next year……James.

well first off, i was German,running with the geisterjagers. the allies actually outnumbered us germans..just want to make that clear because i see some posts here saying we germans outnumbered the allies..not so.
however i did hear in the DZ that the 1st was making charges and not calling themselves out, so the consensus was if they dont call out the germans wouldnt either. you gotta understand though in all fairness,when its happening to you it pisses you off.
plus there was alot of non ball breakage. i know i felt many hits but when i called for a paint check..no bust, so i kept playing. there were a few times where i got hit and just called myself out..it was’nt until later that i realized i was calling my self out and no paint was on me. so i started calling for paint checks after that.

i’m really sorry you guys had a rough go in the 1st. but am really glad its not holding you back from going again in 2010. with the new additions to the field and play they are working on…i think allies will win next year. of course thats just my opinion. but i will still be German cause i love it on the darkside. somebody has to be the bad guys or there’d be noone to fight..lol
have a good 1, see you on the field

i was in 1st ID and yes it was fun but when it came to the big day it just sucked. me and some friends plus countless others from Dog Company and able went all the way up the left trail. we made it up into some ditch and the rangers came behind us. then out of nowhere comes fire from behind us….they claimed to be allies and held fire….then when we turned around opened up on us again….what we thought were allies was a german company that went out of bounds and then claimed to be ally all because they were being taken over. bullshit. ruined the game for me. oh and maybe the fact that we tried talkin to refs to sort things out and they said to go somewhere else.

the night game was badass. i loved it. either side would have been fun. but overall….people take the big game way to seriously..at one point on dday i was in a deadzone..i sat down for ten seconds and already had someone in my face to get out there to fight screaming and yelling…thats why we lost…i mean. the games all about having fun isnt it? who cares if we win or not

@DDayFanatic – Thanks for the points, this is such a large scale battle it can be pretty hard to know how the battle is actually going on all ends. One thing was for sure, on my end at omaha, the battle was pretty grim.

Yes the leadership was horrible. All they did was tell me (1st ID) to push up the hill. Got pissed because at one point in the game on the left side the Germans were being pussies and not getting out when they got hit.
Overall the Germans won because they had more people. Im joining the 4th ID next time. At least they did something.

A couple of points on your recap, mate…

Monday – the Allies lost because they were outnumbered four to one after 1800. When it was even strength, right up to 1800, they had the game in the bag. It was only after half the players (1 ID, 4 ID, Rangers) left the field that it all went to hell. For the vast majority of the game, the Allies were winning, and would have wrapped it up if people had come prepared (paint and air).

Tuesday – the 6 AB blew the Cherbourg bridge, not the Rangers. They were on the east (right) side – the guys making no progress. The Allies destroyed the Krauts in this scenario. The Krauts got pushed all the way back to their DZ twice, and in the end had to have their DZ moved even father back because the Allies were all over them.

Wednesday – The Allies won. Well, I suppose technically there were Allies on both sides cause the Krauts were too few, but in any event, it was the Allied side that took the win, thanks to some ninja-style moves from the CW.

Thursday – actually, the Germans won, with Allied help. The CW got flipped over the Kraut side for this one.

Thursday night game – Was epic. So much fun.

Saturday – It was a much closer game than you are suggesting. The North and South were epic wins for the Allies. 1 ID and Omaha Beach were where the Allies dropped the ball. No points scored for Omaha? Brutal! I agree that there needs to be some leadership changes at the very top, because the battle plan sucked, but the Allied players carrying it out rocked it everywhere except Omaha beach.

lol, you probably shot me because I was one of the first people to run up the hill about an hour into the game when we planned the charge.

Playing for the germans was a lot of fun, the 1st Ninja Airborne kinda just chilled for the first hour or so then when the americans started pushing up the hill we decided to start killing people we were playing the right side of the hill (facing the water) and when people started coming up we mowded faces. In colville we posted up in the stairway window of the wall and there was no chance of getting the flag my gun was shooting 240fps and i was still killing people from our position. After we pushed the americans from colville right after we took the flag it was game over
