Overview:

[Mark Nixon, Journal #1]: High quality Russians hold the canal bridges against rag-tag remnants of the Muencheberg Panzer Division, fleeing Berlin in the last days of the war. Scenario parameters force the Germans into a frenzied rush across those bridges and something of those fearful days seems captured here in cardboard.
Attacker: German (Muencheberg Panzer Division)

2021-08-12(A) David Garvin vs Loic Gourdon Russian winI didn't make full advantage of the LV in the first few turns. And Loic had a great set up!
2021-06-20(A) Vilis Pavulans vs Kai Glanz German winWe reversed sides and tried again. This time a lot faster german movement. Few casualties until they hit the canal. Then the first halftrack with passengers got hit without survivors. The germans focused on the right side which looked least defended and managed to get across with few broken. A smaller force went in the center but was bogged by the hedge and the infantry was cut to pieces there. So the main thrust went right and that´s where the russian reinforcements came in. They broke quite a lot of german infantry but enough swarmed by and managed to accumulate enough VCs without the last AFV getting off board.
2021-05-20(D) Vilis Pavulans vs Kai Glanz Russian winPretty good rubbling and a bit slow advance for the germans, being somewhat careful in the beginning. No use in taking any shots with the russians in the first turns because the visibility hindrance. The russians managed to build a solid defence on the other side of the river and the AT-gun knocked out two AFVs rapidly and a Pz IV was taken out crossing the bridge by a valiant CC reaction fire. When the infantry tried to get across the bridges they were mowed down and victory became impossible for the germans.
2020-11-11(A) Matias Dahlbäck vs Erik Grande Russian win
2019-07-28(A) David Garvin vs Logan Stallings German winThis was a pretty good match. Logan had a great plan; however, it fell apart when both his tank MA and his AT gun malf'd.
I was able to get my VP off in pretty good order.
Also, his one remaining squad that would have hindered my movement was broken by a sniper shot that opened up an entire flank.
