Overview:

Panzers and grenadiers moved swiftly on the morning of 15 September to quickly take the city of Brzesc and the Citadel; however, they ran into a strong defense of infantry and FT tanks of the 113th Light Tank Company. The poles were defending the gardens on the northern part of the city. The Germans attacked with the 86th Motorized Infantry Regiment and 8th Panzer Regiment. They battered their way through this outer defense, destroying the FT tank company in the process. As the attackers advanced into the suburbs, the battle turned into fanatical house-to-house fighting.
Attacker: German (Elements 10th Panzer Division)
Defender: Polish (Elements Brzesc garrison)

2022-03-06(A) Richard Jenulis vs Richard King German winThe Germans took their first loss on turn 5 (a HS). The game end with the Germans only suffering 1 half-squad, 1 AFV (in cc) and one 7-0 (sniper). The Poles only had a GO 10-1 leader, a Berserk 7-1 leader, 2 broken half-squads. This was a total blow out.
2020-10-09(A) Andy Bagley vs David Murray German winDespite this being a fairly comfortable German win, we both thought this scenario was great fun. The contrast between the fast-moving German armour and its sluggish Polish counterparts is very marked, and how the Poles should use their armour is a big puzzle. Here, they tried retreating towards to rear of board 64, but this failed as the Germans overtook them. May be better to have them stand and fight alongside the infantry defending the village, as otherwise the Poles have virtually no AT capability, and the Germans can use the 'VBM freeze' technique with impunity.
