Overview:

In the town of Shklov, the German advance was frustrated by the determined defense of a handful of young Soviets. Skillfully using every advantage, the young officer cadets, known as “Stalin Scholars”, were able to beat back the advance of the regular German forces. In order to break the deadlock the Germans ordered the crack Infantry Regiment “Grossdeutschland” to clear the town.
Attacker: German (Elements of Infantry Regiment Grossdeutschland)

2021-09-28(A) Michael Rodgers vs Alain Chabot German winWind started on turn two, which helped the Germans some by making drifting smoke. They were on the way to winning when the German sniper eliminated the Russian 10-3 to seal the deal.
2021-03-18(A) Gus Ingenluyff vs German winThis scenarios features 10-3s on both sides. They didn't change every attack into a KIA.

It was a close game with lots of vbms.

The Russian 10-3 was manning the HMG which the germans stayed clear off. Using him in RF attack would be an interesting variation for next time.
2021-02-11(D) Russell Dewhurst vs Gordon Russian win
2020-11-30(D) Dave Mareske vs Dennis Dowd Russian winAfter an initial German surge the Russian ATR took out one of the SP guns with a side shot. The other SP gun got immobilized in VBM. Without the tank and SMOKE support (we both rolled gusts on turn 1) the Germans were stuck in the first two buildings.
