Overview:

Fired by the enthusiasm of their field commanders, STAVKA approved crossing of the Vistula by troops of the 1st Polish Army into the devastated city. For five days, the shallow bridgehead was bombarded and sporadically attacked by Kaminski’s White Russians, fighting under the German colors. The raw Polish levies conscripted into the 1st Polish Army by the Soviets were no match for veterans. Evacuation to the east bank of the Vistula was approved just as a strong German probe was launched and rapidly turned the withdrawal into a rout. . .

2025-03-21(D) Chris Larkin vs German win10 hrsRussians took the early lead in CVP and then decided to retreat to hold it, giving up the viccory territory of the board. A self inflicted tactical mistake in the final turn led to the Germans just making it over the hump for the win,

2024-01-28(A) Yannick Le Teigner vs Russian Russian/Partisan (AK) winI (German) was able to get plenty enough of FP on board 8, but the crossing of the canal (especially with the center bridge) in the initial turn gave enough VP to the Russian to take the win.

2021-07-19(D) M T vs T.L. Russian/Partisan (AK) winI gambled on a forward defense and it paid off this time - managed to contain the German attack for 8 turns for victory. My opponent did have some terrible luck during his PFPh phases, rolling 10s and 11s for his key high-FP shots.

It was an interesting experience to play an "old school" type ASL scenario. Lots of time to develop an attack, with plentiful use of Prep fire.
