Open Tournament 2016 Round 3

Will a standings table be published after this round? If one has been published before I must have missed it.

There was one published after the second round. I imagine Mark will post it again after the third round. For sure, Bayernkini will be top, at least a couple of points clear after his double-win over sansmerci.

Then I shall try and find the round 2 table. Thanks

Here it is:

Maybe Sansmerci have logfiles. My logs forced in both games vassal issues and shows over and over again asynchronous situations. Therfore i didnt have any logs here.

TLangston will make the report and publish logfile.

Result was:

TheMP - French 7
TLangston - Allied 3

TheMP (French) : 7 (10 blocks lost)
Tlangston28 (Russian): 3 (23 blocks lost)

What looked to be a close game in the beginning turned into a rout. We had numerous issues with VASSAL so not sure if it is a VASSAL or connection thing as we kept having to synchronize and Vince at one point had to reboot.

In any event, most of the play for the Russians were in the center where the ART was consolidated and attempted to reduce front line French but did little damage. an attack on the left flank initially caused some Russian casualties but a counter-attack and an LGM allowed the Russians to move into position to bring the block count to 3 a piece. A French combo of short supply against one ART unit and a CAV unit running up to damage another with a French ART finishing off the piece. Leaving the French in control of a hill hex and ahead 5-3. The Russians tried pushing the CAV off the hill but were unable to do so. a final French Bayonet charge allowed the winning blows to be made.

There were 2 log files as we were interrupted by the numerous server connection issues (file a first then c).

Game 2 Open Tournament
Here is the log file. Well played by Bayernkini, I formed a Grand Battery with the first card then shot twice and did not get a center card after that he did the same thing to me in the first game. He did use his cavalry a lot better than I did.

Game 1 Eylau AM
Gonzo 7
Gonzo French 7 banners, Greg O Russian 6 banners
An early French inf column bayonet charge repulsed from Right hill, but fell back in fair order. Russian cavalry charge wrecked havoc across board, but CU unit trapped and eliminated. OG finally got into action and blasted Ru inf. Tight exciting game against good opponent, down to last roll.
Game 2 Gonzo Russian 7 banners, Greg O French 3 banners
Russian gunnery was awesome in this game, Several French inf devastated by the time they got to they hills. Battled over them repeatedly, but French repulsed and Russ CAV effective in finishing off several. OG advanced, only to be overwhelmed by Russ GR bayonet charge and was the last banner earned. GG again. Thanks to my opponent Greg, helping iron out the last few rules.

When counting lost blocks, do we include Russian Cossack blocks?
