2018-04-28(D) Louis Langdeau vs Lee M German winThis one was technically unfinished, but Lee stated it was almost certain the Germans would win if we ran the clock down. Second learning scenario to get some of the AFV rules down. I got very lucky with some prisoner interrogation and civilian rolls, and a good amount of Lee's units were revealed. Lee had planned for me to come in over the open fields and shell the buildings on the way in, but I instead decided to flank around the side through the forests and push into the city. A couple lucky shots and rolls, and I was able to make my way in with very few casualties. Fun scenario, and good for new players to learn some basics (HIP units, AFV rules).
2017-03-16(A) Kevin Duval vs Dwayne Duval American winUsed American balance.
2017-03-16(D) Dwayne Duval vs Kevin Duval American win
2015-09-02(D) leo zhu vs John Knowles American winIt cost 4 months to finish this scenario. I do not like the hip units and make many wrong decisions.
2015-04-26(D) Gordon Jupp vs Jeremy Shields German winGood fun game which swung to and fro until the last tuen when the wirblewind shot well and an ongoing melee was resolved in the German favour. Quick easy game.
