Overview:

During the destruction of Army Group Center, the German front became pierced at many points. As the battlefield situation became more fluid, reliable information was of crucial importance to both sides. In the midst of the fighting an unusual clash occured on the outskirts of Lepel— unusual in that both recon forces were commanded by seasoned, aggressive leaders. Although the primary responsibility of both groups was to avoid contact and obtain battlefield intelligence, the aggressive nature of both commanders prevailed. A vicious firefight ensued. . .

2021-11-10(D) manzoli andrea vs Galletto German win
2021-10-04(A) Vilis Pavulans vs Giovanni Faisca Russian winWith a seldom seen recklessness I, the russian player made a ESB which immobilised an AFV in the first movement phase. After that the germans let one AFV come too far ahead alone in the bottom part of the map and two russian sharks attacked, killing the lone german. After that a careful positioning took place and another duel arose. It ended in a russian casualty along with the 10-2 armour leader. The game finished in the last turn when two russian AFVs made a risky rush in the lower left part of the map, knowing that no german AFVs could get out in the last turn. Both survived and brought victory to the motherland.
2021-06-12(A) David Garvin vs Loic Gourdon German winWow, what a game? Loic is learning ASL and we are going through Beyond Valor. Before going into ASL 6 Red Packets, we did this gem.
Loic is a very fast learner. This game also showed that you can do the right thing and still lose. I swarmed a Puma with my forces. Loic didn't take the bait of the hull-down T 70. He did fire at the fleeting T 70 with at
least a net +6 TH DRM and got him nevertheless with a critical hit; but that just gave me a Russian Smoke Screen. LOL
I continued to swarm until I had 3 T 70s facing him from front and both sides. Loic had wisely popped an sD to protect his Puma and then I simply shot to acquire. I expected to lose one T 70 and sure enough, Loic tried for APCR (failed) so went with AP and hit with rate. That was to be expected. He then turned the turret 2 hex spines and fired against the hull down T 70 (miss, rate. Rate was going to kill me!), then hit, rate and set me on fire. Finally shot the last one, hit (no rate), but again, set me on fire.
That Puma got 4 (four) of my T 70s and that was game on turn 2. Still lots of fun!
