Overview:

The 2nd SS-Panzer Division, “Das Reich”, formed a rear guard position in Vienna as the Fourth Ukrainian Front closed in on the beautiful city. One area of bitter fighting was around the picturesque Prater Park with St. Stephen's Cathedral. The people of Vienna did not want their beautiful city to suffer the same fate as Warsaw and Budapest. So the local leaders made a deal with the Russians: help would be available if the artillery bombardment was called off. (see Misc Rules below)
Attacker: Russian / Partisan (Elements of the 5th Guards Mechanized Brigade and 30th Guards Heavy Tank Regiment and possible partisan forces)
Defender: German (SS) (Elements of Regiment "Der Fuhrer", SS-Panzer Division 2 "Das Reich")

2020-06-16(A) Vilis Pavulans vs Matias Dahlbäck Russian / Partisan winA frontal defence made the initial approach hard but after missing to spot a LOS and not moving the Panther, a shot to the side made it a wreck. That made the germans tremble a bit and suddenly quick flanking maneuvres tied the german down. Then by sacrificing a T34 a few russian squads managed to get over the bridge ahead of the russians and the two buildings were captured. The boxcars on the first roll of the 88 also made the game a bit easier for the russian heroes.
2020-06-16(D) Matias Dahlbäck vs Vilis Pavulans Russian / Partisan winI can't AFV.
2020-05-19(D) David Ramsey vs Martin Barker German (SS) winAs featured on IR 20 (and VASL log attached, below).

I had the Germans with the balance and the game couldn't have been closer. This scenario is genuinely one of the best scenarios I've played - the randomness of the partisans adds just enough spice to keep the Germans on their toes, and although it's dicey as to how much of an impact the tank battles are superb, and the IS-2s are just beasts. In this game we had 2 PFs bounce off them, we had a malfunctioning DC, and the whole thing came down to a thoroughly mismatched 5:1 CC that I somehow survived.
2020-02-28(D) Stefan Fiedler vs Lars-Peter German (SS) winMy opponent made a setup mistake by setting up his (non panther) tank so that I could kill it in my first prep. Placed the HMG and a s in 22 F6 effectively hindering forces on the flank to retreat over the canal or to the other vc building. Pushed hard on my left flank and managed to close in onto the factor in T3, Nailed his tiger on a sneaky LOS from adjacent the factory. As I entered the factory partisans beamed in behind his line in the church/factory stopping routs. In T3 late the sniper broke most of teh defenses behind the canal and at T4 Lars gave up. Played in the first round of ASL Scandinavian open 2020
