2022-12-19(D) Andy Bagley vs Mike Grogan German winAllies conceded on turn 6 having lost most of their tanks and many infantry without reaching the main part of the town. Needs careful planning by the Allies with lots of smoke and some concentration of forces, avoiding at least some of the big German guns.
2022-11-21(A) Asad Rustum vs Jonas Björkqvist German win
2022-10-10(A) Dwayne Duval vs Kevin Duval German win
2022-10-10(D) Kevin Duval vs Dwayne Duval German winGermans managed to beat back initial attack with substantial loses for the Americans. This kept them struggling to gain ground and then got stung when reinforcements arrived. Americans gave up in Turn 7.
2022-08-31(A) Paolo Cariolato vs Federico Corso American / British winGreat Classic Scenario, it went down to the last turn, I grabbed 40 locations but was down to one AFV with broken MA. Federico make a gallant go for it but he had not enough bodies to retake 3 building.
Great fun.
