Mech War Soviets v. Germans

Chris' Soviets v. Jim's Germans
Same forces as last weekend.  House ruels for WWII Mech War.

Deployment platoon by platoon as counters drawn from a bag BA style.
The Germans used theri half tracks to move quickly to occupy the 3 woods near the centre.
The Germasn advance their MkIVs on their right.  The Soviets engaged them with T34/85s in the wood but advanced armoutr on theri right & centre.
The Soviet tanks in the wood on their left were wiped out by superior numbers reinforced by good dice.   The Soviets then thought better of their advance right of centre where two Tigers lurked in the field & sent them back to meet the MkIVs.  But the MkIVs continued to shoot well & the Sovieta rmour on their left was destroyed.  
In the woods the Germans infantry held off Soviet infantry attacks.
The T34's sent around the German left were kept occupied  by the Tigers.
The Germans concentrated their forces better, then got good dice to multiply their advantage into a decisive victory, reversing the result of last weekend's battle with the same forces.
