2013-04-24	(A) Jeff T	vs	Jerry	Russian win	We played this in 2 and 3 hour sessions, once a week over the last couple months. It started out well for the Russians who didn't have many infantry losses early. The Germans came on strong about Turn 8 as the OBA finally came down hard and a couple of good kills on Russian armor and 2 malf'd guns on Russian SP guns left the Russian infantry exposed to the Panzer counterattack. However the dice gods turned again and the Russians got hot. A critical roll in the scenario was Jerry rolling boxcars on his radio contact roll on Russian Turn 9 (DFPh). With the OBA out of action, the Russians swarmed the hill in numbers. Jerry got 2 half-squads into the 5th level 3 hill hex (one via berserk) but it wasn't enough to survive the point blank advancing fire in Russian turn 10 and the Russians won a very close affair. Really a classic, fun scenario. Highly recommended.
2013-02-04	(A) Andy Beaton	vs	Richard Hooks	German win	Awesome scenario - 23 hours of tight action and the Germans pulled it out at the last second with some awesome rolling. One of the all time greats.
2010-05-01	(A) Glen Taylor	vs	Hegdahl	German win	Great scenario. Russian loss due to some good OBA from the from the Germans. Lots of fun!!!
