Playing Falaise Pocket on WaW, the server nearly full for a change. Germans took the first two flags fast, then the second two flags even faster - we were down to just Lambert North and Mortar Battery, both cappable, and the tickets were around 650 for Canada and 450 for Germany, with Canadians bleeding badly. We said in team chat we were going to hold them at all costs, even though the mortar and artillery spam was horrendous, even for Falaise. Horstpetersens got 114 kills, so you can well imagine what the last half an hour was like. At times, Lambert was greyed and occasionally captured, but we got it back. Had a few heart-stopping moments when Mortar Battery was greyed, but we never let them cap it. The Germans couldn't manage to grey both flags at the same time, which is what they needed to do to win (which is kind of ridiculous, surely they should have to cap both).
Wherever we saw Germans, we killed them. We patrolled behind Mortar Battery, killing squad leaders. We S-mined paths and stopped Germans from getting behind us. The German tickets were falling achingly slow. 400.. 300.. 200.. 100.. we were going to do it. It was beyond a shadow of a doubt the single most impressive defense of a pair of flags that I can remember seeing in now 8 months of FH2. 50 tickets.. 40 tickets.. 30 tickets.. we won.
Oh wait, no, a tank drove up, shit out four infantry, greyed Mortar Battery and the Germans won 16-0.
