Overview:

Prior to the invasion of Poland, the Germans inserted numerous Polish-speaking nationals into Poland to work with Polish Nazis to establish a Fifth Column. Known as the German “Freikorp”, they were upon the commencement of hostilities, to perform acts of sabotage creating confusion among the Polish defenders. On the first day of the war, they fulfilled their orders. One typical action occurred in Chorzow where the local police had their hands full. First, they helped repel German saboteurs from capturing the local power plant. Then they rushed to the aid of a local defense force at a mine that was holding off a determined assault by the Freikorps.

2024-02-19(A) Jobbo Fett vs Tanorian German winA fast advance on the south side gained me vital ground that I used to then push into the bottom side of the map and the buildings thereabout. It also let me block the entrance for the Polish AFVs, where I hoped to eliminate them ASAP. I was mostly successful. Breaks on the Polish side were compounded by the inability to rally. Fun, fast, would play again.
2022-12-21(D) Richard Jenulis vs Brent Morris German winOne Peugot was eliminated by a LMG TK and the other Mlf it's MA on the first shot resulting on a recall when the repair roll was a 6. The Poles coward and disputed resulting in a German win by controlling building Y6.
2018-08-09(A) Juan Garrido vs Solo Polish winInteresting and run-fast scenario
2018-01-01(A) Jim Rupp vs James L. Polish winGermans were on a roll toward a win until I had my best leader get a HOB MC which caused him to surrender. A fun little scenario that went down to the wire.
2013-01-01(A) Nick Trotti vs German win
