(Third person POV)
Tony and Ivan returned to their formation to inform the men of the good news
Tony: For those worrying that we would just be out here and watching the girls play worry no more because we got a date with the British, And you know what that means so all teams do final checks make sure none of your vehicles are out of order because I don't want to explain to the British why we Americans can't perform on the battlefield.
Ivan: Hey Tony the British only got five tanks if we bring everyone it's just gonna be a dog pile no fun in that.
Tony: Can't argue with that what five tanks you suggest bringing
Ivan: I say we bring the 3 M4A2's and your Jumbo along with my IS-1
Tony: Whoa bringing both flag tanks this is gonna be a damn Slaughter, thankfully that's exactly what we want to do. Okay since everyone's here, here's the basic plan we're gonna be following against the brits, since four of our tanks have stabilizers we are going to mostly staying on the move for this match, And when the British stop to get accurate fire on the Shermans the IS-1 we'll pick them off one by one, but if that doesn't work we're going to be going to plan B Which is basically to hold down and use our bigger guns to tear them apart from afar, oh and don't forget but the only tank with a real chance of hurting us is the Churchill, Focus that at all costs. Take it out and the win's basically ours.
The men stood there absorbing their Commander's words thinking of the plan and thinking of potential improvements that they could suggest.
Ivan: Okay that's enough standing there looking pretty get to your tanks and get ready for a damn fight.
Tony: Hey Ivan while the crews are setting up the tanks you want to go spectate the girls match with me and the other Commanders.
Ivan: How the hell are we gonna watch the match we're in a field, unless you want to follow them around in our own tanks but even you're not that crazy.
Tony: First off go screw yourself Ivan and second off, some of the boys set up a projector.
Ivan stood there for a few seconds contemplating if he had anything to do in the meantime
Ivan: Yeah why not, I got nothing else to do.
Tony: Now that's just what I want to hear, come on
Tony spun around and started walking to the rear of the formation with Ivan not far behind him, it didn't take them long to reach what looked like two folding tables stacked on top of each other with a white sheet hung over them with a small folding table with a projector on top of it, Was it crude perhaps but it worked and that's what really matters.
Tony: Hey Michael that even work.
Tony said pointing at the projector setup
Michael: It's about the opposite of your love life. Or in other words, great.
Tony: You say that like yours any better or hell even exists.
Michael: Touché.
Tony: Now shut it and get those girls live stream up.
Michael: Roger that boss.
Michael turned on the projector then pulled out his phone where he hopped on YouTube going to the Ooarai live stream before finally connecting it to the projector. As he did that the other commanders arrived and began mingling among each other going silent as the livestream finally came up
Tony:Man I got two things to say, one watch closely, learn our enemies tactics and learn anything useful you can see that would be helpful and two. any bets?
The second one got a few Chuckles out of the Commanders but the men did take it seriously with eight of the ten commanders betting on the British while the other two bet on a tie.
The match had begun with both teams of five driving out into the Sandy fields reminiscent of those from Arizona, The British drove out in an arrow formation two Matilda's on each side with the Churchill in the center leading the group with Ooarai to their left slightly spread out on top of a hill, said Hill being a great vantage point to the British formation allowing Ooarai to easily see the British who were out in the open.
Michael: If I were them I'd already be sending 76mm shell's downrange at the British.
.
Tony: Shut your trap Michael we're trying to watch
The Ooarai Tanks began moving out with four going down a ravine leaving just the Panzer IV alone on the ridge over watching the British
Ivan: Just what are they doing leaving on
*BOOM*
The Panzer IV fired on the British formation with its 75 mm shell landing in between one of the matildas and the Churchill.
Michael: Oh close but no cigar.
The Panzer IV seeing the shell miss its mark it did a full 180 degree turn and ran, with the British in response to getting shot at turning and giving Pursuit to the retreating Panzer IV
*BOOM* X 5

The British in response to getting shot at decided to begin bombardment on the poor Panzer IV which was leading the British tanks into the Ravine where the other Ooarai tanks had gone which were now laying in wait for the British
