| 2021-01-20 | (A) Tim Wiegmann | vs | Mike Grogan | German win (VASL Log) | It was my first time playing with trucks and motorcycles and I was caught a bit off-guard by how incredibly slowly these vehicles move off-road. The length of the scenario is barely enough to make it to the other side of the board when off-roading around the village. The first half of the village was cleared pretty fast by liberally employing smoke and VBM freezing. I then scored three somewhat lucky MG kills against the Polish AFVs, which left their armoured forces a bit overwhelmed and gave my infantry pretty much free movement through the rest of the village. The deal was sealed when two of my motorcycle squads managed to race unharmed past the lone Polish squad defending the access road to the two buildings on the far side of the village. |
