Hey Rod, I just don’t have the motivation to game or paint, hope I get over it.

Rod – I’m furiously searching for my camouflage onsie…  Glad you’re still kicking.

Kyote – Quit yer bitching and get to work!

V/R,

All,

Continuing towards my closeout of the mini-campaign and Operation Chunky Bandit, I present more batreps.

Under counterattack, the Cubans launch a LAW at an encroaching Communist BMP.

I hope you enjoy them, and next week I’ll look to close out the mini-campaign with batreps 51 through 56.

I had high hopes for the Shilka and it disappointed me both battles.

#17
That one communist team plowing its way through most of the Cuban platoon needs a monument. Even the BMP did something.

#19
I was really hoping the Marder would get killed in the middle of the bridge. Just when I was thinking, those Marders were going to break the trend, one got killed, YAY!

Vehicles really don’t live very long with 5Core.

#20
Communist armor continues to disapoint me.

#21
That LAv might be the longest living vehicle the whole campaign.

#22
So close. That Leopard just sat there?

#23
What is it with tanks just sitting around?

Just caught up on these – great stuff as ever, many thanks Jack.  Need to get back to 5-Core soon, myself.

[Just Jack]

Well, it only took ya a couple weeks! 😉  In all seriousness, thanks guys, glad to know you saw them.

Thomaston – Yeah, I didn’t even need the tank to whoop them Commies!  And they were too cowardly to use theirs.  The ZSUs have definitely been a huge letdown for the bad guys.  Regarding armor sitting around, 5Core is built on the idea everyone doesn’t get to do something, you’ve got to prioritize.

John – Lots of fun, but I must admit, 30 fights with 5CCC in a row was too much…

V/R,

Jack
