Overview:

Many Axis soldiers in Arbuzov arose on a bitterly cold Christmas Day to discover that they had been abandoned. The main force had apparently continued on their retreat without rounding up all the soldiers in the column from their scattered nighttime resting places. The abandoned soldiers, about 1500 in number, mostly Italians, believed they were doomed and decided to sell their lives dearly. Soon they heard the sounds of approaching Soviet troops. . .

2020-06-10(D) Richard Webb vs Santiago Spenabella Russian winRussian chose to attack parralel tp the diagonal road, coming on from north and south. This limited defensive fire largely to the "end" building on each flank. AFV was largely unstoppable, and used this to VBM freeze a hex each turn. Disaterous Axis die rolling on GT 4 killed off any chance of a win, with the final 2-4-7 hiding out the way near j1 overrun on GT 5 to complete a fairly emphatic Russian win.
2020-05-24(A) Dave Mareske vs Dan Best Russian winMoved fast with the Russians and lots of Close Combat wins helped secure a Russian victory. One of the highlights was my tank crashing into the last building with a German half Squad and did not BOG! German highlight was routing out of encirclement, rolling a "2" for interdiction, and thus created a Hero and rallied. However, they all died in Close Combat in the end. Great game with Dan Best!

2020-03-11(D) James Lowry vs Patch Bunny Italian / German win
2020-02-10(D) Eben Johnson vs Italian / German winGreat game. Played Italians/Germans; bad setup against AFV and could not stop Russians entering from the east; later game rolls went my way and game ended first half Russian 4.
