2020-08-25(D) M T vs N.N. Russian winIn our rematch of NEV2 the Germans managed to get a foothold in the southern buildings, but determined Russian shooting & skulking tactics carried the day. After failing to keep schedule the German player gave up the game on turn 4.

It's a nice scenario that uses SK1 components well. The No Man's Land area is an interesting touch.
2020-08-21(D) M T vs N.N. Russian winThe Germans set up for a big PrepFire phase in the North and an assault with the Reinforcements in the south. The PF phase failed and backfired, while the assault was hampered by a few surprising LOSs coupled with low Russian rolls. The end result was so many German casualties that my opponent called it a game.

Seems like a good scenario, need to rematch though.
2020-08-09(A) David Garvin vs Loic Gourdon German win
2020-06-12(A) Kermit Mullins vs Scott Waites Russian winTough loss for my Germans. I couldn't get any decent rolls early on and so my attack failed to suppress even the lowly 2-2-6's which then rolled 3's against me and I responded with 10's on my morale checks. I broke early and often and it sapped my attack. I didn't equally badly in melee with a 6+1 and 4-2-6, which eliminated two separate stacks in close combat...snake eyes will do that. I managed to surround the last Russians, but was held in melee and so lost as the Russians still had 2 building hexes. It's tough to fight your dice and your opponent at the same time.
2020-05-31(A) O Ramaille vs German winThe Germans attacked in two groups from the North and the South. First assault was poor but the Germans advanced bit by bit in the South. A Soviet unit was successful in infiltrating the German rear. However, the last German assault was a success ending in 5 different CCs putting the last Russian units out of good order except for the infiltrated one. A German success. Not as good as S2.
