2021-04-05	(D) Michael Rodgers	vs	Kevin Kileen	French win	This one ended on the last turn with German tanks adjacent to the rear building, but not enough to win.
2021-03-06	(A) Rich Weiley	vs	Dave Wilson	French win	Paddington Bearz -March 2021. One of the best games I've played in sometime. Had the Germans in this having planned a defence for the French but getting the attackers on a dice roll. Not having really considered the how I should attack I made a relatively cautious entry and finished a turn before breaking for lunch. Returned from lunch and had a good look at the map and the scenario card (5 turns!) and realized I'd better up the tempo. Probably made an error at this point in deciding to go solely for the factory victory condition and ignore the rearmost VC building. Having correctly guessed where the 75 was (in the factory hex pointing straight down the road) I managed to smoke it and get two squads and a leader into CC and eliminate it in turn 2. By turn 3 I was getting infantry into the factory in strength but winning close combats was proving difficult. My undoing was the 25LL Gun crew on the opposite side of the building. I got a HS into CC with it in turn 3 but this degenerated into a stalemate until about turn 4 when my opponent reinforced the hex with his third crew. I upped the ante as well and had two and half squads in the hex for CC in my turn 5. I missed both my attacks (2-1 and 1-1) and my opponent then rolled snakes on a 1-4 to eliminate all my units and generate a 8-1 leader. This stack then hit an adjacent stack of three squads in prep fire with an 8 + 1 and broke the lot. I had a mired Pz 3 in an adjacent factory hex but the crews shrugged off the panzer's 20fp MG attack and I malf'ed the MA when I fired it - game over. As I said earlier I think I erred in not peeling off a couple of squads and a vehicle to threaten the second victory building and put my opponent in two minds. Even so it was a tense and very enjoyable game.

2020-12-04	(D) David Garvin	vs	David Goldman	German win	For round 4 of the virtual NY State ASL Championship.
2020-11-27	(A) Scott Fischbein	vs	Brian Roundhill	French win	I split my forces into two sections, one would try to cut around on the west to try to get to the I4 building, while the main force would head up the east to try to engage the factory. I failed to make much progress on the east, with some well-placed guns slowing me down, and the harassing OBA making things tough on the infantry (Brian placed it very well and patiently moved it into perfect position). By round 4 it was pretty clear I wasn't going to satisfy either victory condition so I conceded. Good game, interesting scenario and a great opponent. North Texas Shootout 2020(virtual) Round 2.
