If you were to fight a battle, how will it look like? Who is in on it? What are the stakes? Why must you fight?
Most importantly, why is it your greatest Time of Glory, aka your greatest achievement?

A battle which I have been theorizing for years and I am planning on making it in my mod, beginning of ww2, Baltic states+poland+finland against USSR and Germany with support from Britain and France, the odds are 1to5 for successful defense, till allies can come to aid, the Baltic entente army has the skilled soldiers, but the enemy has the numbers, for soviet attack on Baltic states there needs to be very great numbers to 1 Baltic soldier, there must be 40-60 soviet soldiers, the terrain in Baltics is unsuitable for heavy armor and trying to use it in attack is near suicide odds, Baltic states has light tanks as main motorized units and advanced communication equipment, while soviet tanks only the unit leader has communication equipment, Baltic tanks all has it.
While soviet army has the numbers it is not an advantage as the front line is not suitable for massive soldier numbers.
The military HQ of entente is placed in Courland, as it is the only place possible to defend in case of overwhelming loses.
The battle begins, soviet army marches in to attack, but the first attack is repealed as of because the prepareness of Baltic defense forces. After unsuccessful first attack soviet forces regroup and tries to use massive direct attack on one place at front line near the Latvian city Daugavpils. The people evacuates from the city, while soviet heavy mechanization force assisted by 2 divisions are moving in the direction of city, after successful first wave they gets forward a lot, unfortunately this force now is surrounded by Latvian military and water, unable to move forward and trying to cross the water force gets spread thin and eventually defeated, losses for this unit are high 47% dead, 20% wounded, the rest are either retreating or surrendering. Latvian loses in region are low under 20% dead, 12% wounded.
Note this was only the first part of battle, I will add more latter.

My best fictional achievement?
I'm trapped behind enemy lines as they besiege my position.
The enemy has encircled my position and has sent a large percentage of their forces from their nearby stronghold to kill off my force.
My allies led an all-out assault on the enemy stronghold to great success but my allies chose to conserve their forces instead.
My forces got pinned down to the front of a cliff face with a mine dug into its structure.
We dug in and prepared trenches to meet an onslaught. My troops slowly retreated from each trench, the one behind firing a couple volleys before the current hurls grenades at the enemy.
Meanwhile, the cliff prevented an attack on our entire position, prompting enemy forces to lead a frontal aasault.
I snuck a unit of cavalry out during the confusion of battle while ensuring allied cooperation. We hit the enemy camps in the rear before charging the enemy main force and vanguard at the frontlines.
My forces rescued my liutenant's weakening forces and we squeezed the enemy like patties in a burger.

Seeing all this reminded me of that Battle of the Rhenmark thing I made up as backstory to the independence of my Nationstates nation...
Unfortunately, I lost the draft, so I don't really remember parts of what was supposed to happen...

Probably doesn't count but I'm putting it here anyway. I was playing bf1 operations on Monte Grappa, defending(in case my name didn't give it away) and my team had been pushed back to the second last sector. About half of our team and myself camped in the bunker, leaving the b flag to the enemy. We managed to bring down two battalions just by forcing them to us, eventually it numbers began to thin out and I didn't realise why, while the few of us that remained at A kept the enemy distracted the rest of our team had captured B and reset al progress the enemy had made. One of my finest moments
