Overview:

After Gola was captured, elements of the 9th and 11th Companies of the 1st SS Infantry Regiment, supported by their armored car detachment, raced ahead to capture Chróscin and push on to Boleslawiec. A scouting party comprised of both fresh recruits and experienced troops was tasked to secure Chróscin. A few Obrona Narodowa (ON), Polish National Guard, were present and had convinced the townsfolk to arm themselves. As they entered the town after moving through patches of fog, the SS were subjected to a wild, irregular gunfight by soldiers and armed civilians.
Attacker: German (SS) (9th and 11th Companies, 3rd Infantry Battalion (rein), 1st SS Infantry Regiment)

2024-03-09(A) Jobbo Fett vs JobboFett German (SS) winI definitely think I set up the Poles too far forward. They missed out on getting some crucial reinforcements early on, paired with breaking early and being unable to recover afterwards. Fast scenario, enjoyable. Nice gimmick.
2023-11-04(A) Dan Best vs Dave Mareske Polish win
2023-02-24(D) Dan Best vs Kermit Mullins Polish winFirst to play and post.
2023-02-24(A) Kermit Mullins vs Dan Best Polish winTough slog for the Germans. I was too cautious on the first two turns. Dan defended aggressively and took out a squad in CC. Dan would get reinforcements on Turns 1, 2, 3, 4, and 6, which really messed up the game for the Germans. These guys retook buildings and basically took the game away. I would exit one Armored Car and end the game with 10-1/2 victory points which gave the Poles the victory.
