Overview:

Early on the second day of Operation PLUNDER, units of 15th (Scottish) Division crossed the unfinished Autobahn to their front. Resistance from scattered German units was light, so a recon section of two armored cars was sent to scout the Royal Scots Fusilliers’ objective, a bridge across the steeply-banked Issel Stream in the vicinity of Loikum. Though contact was the armored cars was lost, a company of Fusilliers was sent towards Loikum around noon to secure the vital bridge – and the surrounding farm buildings – to support the continued advance of 15th Division.
Attacker: British (6th Royal Scots Fusiliers, 44th Infantry Brigade, 15th (Scottish) Infantry Division)

2018-06-19(A) Andy Beaton vs Mark Watson British winThe German SPW was out of play owing to being illegally placed (my opponent didn't tell me after he realized it) and it was still a close win for the British. It came down to a lucky snake eyes killing the German berserkers and putting the British one point over the Germans in personnel points. If the SPW had been there, I'd have probably lost a tank, but even then the Germans didn't come close to the CVP cap.
