One of the ensuing encounters occurred when the approximate location of a partisan group was ascertained. . .

2024-10-20	(D) Vic Lauterbach	vs	TS	German win	Trevor picked the Germans in this small classic. I opted for a loose perimeter around the VC clearing with a few outlying MMC. The best chance for a partisan win is staying hidden until turn 5 then exiting, but it makes a dull game. The woods restrict LOS, so I used the gun to cover the dry stream. A row of minefields could trap my squads instead of stopping the Germans, so I put them where they might break Germans hunting for partisans near the board edges. Trevor's force entered on the north and west edges away from the gulley. Some early K/# results slowed the attack, but the vice closed on turns 3 and 4. Set DCs on two trenches full of partisans broke my defense plus losing the gun and crew (4 VP). Once my 9-1 was killed, I couldn't rally enough MMC to exit, and Trevor got his 15 VP in turn 5. Fun game, although pro-German, the HIP setup gives it high replay value.

2018-04-28	(D) Kevin Duval	vs	Dwayne Duval	German win	Used Partisan balance.
2017-01-24	(D) Martí Cabré	vs	Santiago Penabella	German win	My defense lacked both punch and depth and the Germans came quick for the CC which locked my units in several Melees. My Gun and my HMG rolled poor and after 3 turns I had no units left to fight. Total defeat. I felt that having to defend for any board entry, the Partisans were easily outmaneuvered.
