Overview:

Before the outbreak of the war, some French groups questioned why France would go to war with Germany over Poland and "die for Danzig". However, any French reluctance to fight did not prevent the outbreak of the war. In March 1945 the front lines ran through Danzig, and soldiers on both sides literally were dying for control of the city. The Russians formed combined-arms assault groups, comprising flame-thrower tanks, assault guns and infantry. On 27th March, such assault teams of 108th Rifle Division hit the German positions.
Attacker: Russian (510th Independent Tank Regiment and reinforced 108th Rifle Division, 65th Army)

2022-01-23(A) pierre vasad vs Gruhl German winAu départ on voyait pas comment les allemands allaient pouvoir résister, PF inefficace, AT 88 mal placé, Mais malgré des lourdes pertes allemandes et une fin inéluctable, 3 squads étaient encore en good order à ls fin du 5e tour (dont 2 avaient survécu en éliminant à 1/3 odds les squads allemands dans la mélée finale). Les allemands s'étaient trop dispersés dans les recoins pour que les russes les rattrapent partout. Mais un tour de plus et pas un allemand ne serait resté sur la carte.
2021-08-10(A) Simon Staniforth vs Russian winThe OT-34s did their job and coupled with the quality of the infantry gradually wore down the Germans. They got too many men trapped upstairs so whilst surviving the scenario they were Encircled and thus couldn’t fulfil the VC
2021-05-08(A) Rob MacGinley vs Ian Willey German winRussian bashed in the door well but held at last post so did not make it
2019-10-01(A) Chuck Dye vs Dennis German win
2017-08-05(D) Jason Wert vs Jim Travers Russian winReally nice pbem game with Jim. Jim was patient and steadily advanced the Russians, forcing me into a smaller box. Last turn FPF hurt the Germans and a DC finished the defense. Great scenario
