Overview:

The North Shore Regiment had been ordered to advance toward the Rhine. Its Commander, Lt. Col. John Rowley, was known as the Good Shepherd for the long walking staff he usually carried. The regiment closed on Kepplen with the two lead companies advancing on either side of the narrow, paved road that ran into the middle of town. As they approached the innocent looking barn at the edge of town, they stumbled into a concealed German strongpoint. From the edge of town an infantry gun opened up, followed by a well-concealed Sturmgeschütz and significant crossfire of small arms. The Canadians sent in their Wasps to burn out the defenders.
Attacker: Canadian (North Shore Regiment, 8th Brigade, 3rd Canadian Infantry Division/C Squadron, 1st Hussars)

2023-03-11(D) Asad Rustum vs Steve Slunt German winFirst round of Illuminating Rounds tournament. Defence focused on the three buildings on the German right flank. The Canadians had a miraculous streak of boxcars and lost almost three squads to them. To add insult to injury, the Wasp X:ed its flamethrower in turn 2.
2023-03-10(D) Douglas Leslie vs Tom Repetti German winFirst round of Illuminating Rounds tournament against bon viveur, raconteur and wit, Tom Repetti,. As the Germans, I opted to put most of the defenders at level two in order to reduce the threat posed by the Wasp FT. The Canadian attack concentrated on the German right flank but was not helped when the Wasp ran out of gasoline for its flamethrower on Turn two and a Sherman MA malfunctioned. Add in a ridiculous four consecutive drs of “1” for German sniper checks and it wasn’t the Canadians’ day. Tom was a pleasure to play against and never complained about the slings and arrows of outrageous fortune that went against him.
2023-03-05(A) Dave Mareske vs Tuomo Lukkari Canadian winFirst round of the Illuminating Rounds Tournament. Nice fast game. The defense unhinged when a Canadian squad went berserk, charged through a minefield and entered the hex of the German position. After that it was slow progress with good use of Smoke and passing Canadian MCs.
2020-02-07(A) Michal Bonaventura vs German win
2019-12-07(A) Michael Rodgers vs Paul Chamberland German winThe Canadians had good luck with smoke at the beginning, but bad luck with the dice at the end. I also did not keep my attack as focussed as it should have been.
