I note my poor sappers had a tough time of things

So the key question for me is - if the original siegemasters list was used and you had the extra 175 points to play with, would they have won?
And incidentally I recomend trying some flak and arty!
The sappers just weren't used to their new powers... but I must say walker really helped them get out of their own barbed wire!
I wanted to try an arty-less force... I like tanks in all my armies, so I wanted to give it a spin.
Hmmm... the extra 175 might've been another set of fortications, and... well, not sure what else, I don't think it would've helped.
If I'd deployed in a "classical" Siegemaster fashion, with everything in trenches/bunkers, I think I would've done much better! *laugh* That's what I get for trying to be kunning...
