Overview:

Securing Maleme airfield gave the Germans the initiative. Heavily reinforced, they began advancing eastwards towards Canea, while a sizeable force threatened the New Zealanders’ flank from Prison Valley. In an effort to stem the German advance in that sector, on 25 May Brig Kippenberger directed the now famous counter-attack by his makeshift 10th Bde that recaptured the hilltop village of Galatas at bayonet-point. This proved only a temporary tactical success; increasing pressure by the Germans, who made good use of their command of the air by bombing the defenders almost continuously, obliged the Allied forces to withdraw to the east to avoid being surrounded.
Attacker: German (Kampfgruppe Ramcke/ 2nd Battalion, 100th Regiment, 5th Gebirgsjäger Division)
Defender: New Zealand (10th New Zealand Brigade/ Petrol Company, 10th NZ Brigade/ 3rd Hussars)

2021-02-24(A) Jonathan Townsend vs Myself German win
2020-10-26(D) Scott Fischbein vs Craig Renier New Zealand winThe Germans came on strong against some forward NZ guns/squads, one of which malfed early and was overrun... The resistance in the west did not last long against the onslaught, but did slow them down a bit. A second line of defense in the trees hung on a bit longer before being torn up by some high rate mortar fire. The battle in the town was intense, with buildings changing control a few times. The oncoming Hussars managed to take over an abandoned building and then hunker down with AFV support to hold off the Germans trying to recapture their territory. Came down to a fun, tense last turn with an all out assault from the Germans who couldn't quite get into the CC they would have needed for the win. Looking at the ROAR record, I think we should have given the balance to the German, but didn't notice it before the game - softening up those Hussars would make the German's task a bit easier. Fun game with a great opponent.
2020-10-26(A) Craig Renier vs Scott Fischbein New Zealand winThe Germans made steady progress and advanced in force along the North flank. However, mid scenario the Allied player was able to break a number of squads which severely weakened the attack. The German player was able to win a risky close combat in a victory building, but mistakenly did not adequately defend the first German controlled building against the Allied reinforcements. While it came down to the final turn, the German hope for victory was based on very low odds.
2019-12-29(D) Javier Rodrigo Ballesteros vs My friend New Zealand win
2019-12-21(A) Dmitry Klyuykov vs Artyom Denisyuk German winVery like the dynamics and tension of scenario.
