Ok this will be brief. Rob had Soviets from Desperate measures. Included were IS-2's, SU-85M's, two infantry companies, and planes. I had a Stug Batterie with pioneers and hornises and AA and recon (with panzerfausts)
By the end of turn 3, Rob had lost both his infantry and his company commander. His SU-85M's were in a wood, with one bailed and one bogged. Right in front of them was the recon element with Panzerfausts, ready to assault. And the Hornises were shooting at the SU-85M's at long range. The next turn should have been destruction. Instead:
- the recon troops failed tank terror.
- the Hornisses missed
- the Russian aircraft came on, and the AA missed, resulting in death for a Hornisse.
- the recon troops were blown away by main guns (remember, SU-85Ms have no machine guns)
- the Hornisses missed again. All of the Stug's moved into range.
- the SU-85M's remounted and one moved to shoot the Hornisses at long range, which succeeded. The others blew away the Stug's
- the last Hornisse missed again
- the SU-85Ms destroyed the last Stugs and the last Hornisse
On other tables there was another practice game, and a great looking Force on Force game.
