Kursk Big Push Week 2
Richard couldn't make it this week but Nick took his place. Leigh also put in a rare appearance.
The Germans pushed forward but the Russians disputed every inch of ground (pic 1).

On the right SteveJ's Panzer Grenadiers attacked supported by Panthers. (pic 2). A Russian counterattack pushed the Grenadiers back with high casualties & they 
failed morale. The HQ Panther tried to rally them & failed. SteveJ was left with just 3 Panthers & an Armoured Car in the front line on the right - not nearly enough. Meanwhile Barrie's attack on the left slowed down to a crawl on the rough ridge (pic 3).

It was decided that although it gave us a good battle scenario in this instance, the FOW Axis of Attack Campaign System is pretty dumb & not
worth proceeding with. I have been working on improving the Campaign system we used in last year's Tunisia Campaign. I hope to be calling for volunteers to sign up for a new FOW campaign soon.
