2022-12-14	(A) Michael Rodgers	vs	Bruno L'Archeveque		Russian win	I started this playing before the Dec 1 playing. I set up Germans for some Prep fire on turn one; a waste. Conceded after too many casualties on turn three.
2022-12-01	(D) Michael Rodgers	vs	Kevin Killeen		Russian win	In this scenario, mixed German infantry with assault engineers, air, DC, FT, 4 AFV, reinforced by more of the same, try for hill hexes vs mixed infantry with 2 guns, fortifications reinforced by infantry and 2 AFV in 1942. We had made our Pleva bids (G1 for him, G0 for me) and arrived at sides before we became aware of the errata about a missing T-70. We decided to play it as we bid it. Kevin did a good job of bringing the Germans up quickly while the mist was in effect. I took few shots early on, fearing the air support. When the mist and air support were over, the battle began in earnest. I defended the small hill with about one third of the force. Kevin attacked both hills at the same time. The small hill held out longer than I expected. I had average dice overall, I believe, but the timing of my good dice was key. During the last German turn, they needed one more hex and managed to start a melee in it. During the last Russian turn however, a Russian squad eliminated a lone Panzer in CC to render the melee moot.
