Overview:

Operation SILBERFUCHS was launched on 29 June. This was the German-Finnish effort to capture Murmansk and the Murmansk railroad. The German Mountain Corps Norway had crossed the border and consisted of two tough and battle-tested German mountain divisions. However, the Germans had counted on supply roads that did not actually work as such. The mountain troops could not move much faster than a kilometer per hour. By 4 July, the Germans had successfully established a bridgehead across a river in the rocky northern terrain almost devoid of tree growth. Plans to proceed would have to wait as the Soviets launched a series of attacks including an amphibious landing on the Rybachry peninsula which threatened the German flank.

2023-11-17(A) Simon Staniforth vs Richard Webb Russian winPlayed at Bounding Fire Blackpool 2023. An interesting tactical choice for the Russians with the Victory Locations being a hilltop on either flank and a central village, needing to take 2 of the 3. I thought my opponent would expect me to go for the village and one of the hilltops so I split my infantry force exactly 50 / 50 and went for the 2 hilltops. My opponent agrees that he had not put sufficient German force on the right crest lines to stop my initial moves so the Russians gained an early advantage sweeping one of the hilltops in T2 with the support of the T-26 platoon. I decided to keep this on board and accept the Unit Substitution risk, feeling their firepower and potential to generate some encirclement on the opposite hilltop would be a greater advantage. So it proved and as forces had to be redeployed from the village to assist with the defence of the second hilltop, that came under threat also forcing a German concession.
2023-11-17(D) Richard Webb vs Simon Staniforth Russian winFriendly game vs Simon. 3 objectives to defend with only 7 squads . Tried to hold one hill and centre. Not sure hi Russians can lose if they keep the 3 tanks on as these can isolate the 3 location and stop German lateral reinforcements. Comprehensive well earned win from Simon
Map question: Does grain grow that far north?
2023-04-08(D) Camille Garek vs Fabrice HOMMET Russian win
2023-03-16(D) fabio aliprandi vs P.C. Draw
2023-02-09(A) Indy Lagu vs Rob Oler German winNot much to say...my attack was ill-conceived,
and Rob's solid defense was impossible to crack.

I had 14 squads melt into 426s, about 50-50 with
morale checks and ammo shortage. I think that the
Russians need to get rid of the ammo shortage (I
didn't, and it cost me).

I would definitely play again. I might even have my
head in the right spot!
