2020-11-24(A) Scott Fischbein vs Craig Renier American winFun scenario with an appropriate title. I used my tanks to shove Craig's forces back, and his tank wasn't able to do much to shove back... especially after it malf'd it's gun in turn 4. As always, enjoyed playing with Craig.
2020-11-12(D) Craig Renier vs Scott Fischbein American winThe Americans drove decisively on the German left. The Germans held their fire too long and let the Americans get too close. When the German finally revealed his gun, it was too late to make any great impact. When the German tank entered the fray, it was able to cause some damage, but too much had been lost. A one sided American victory.
2020-10-23(A) Kermit Mullins vs Scott Waites American winMy Americans struggled in the early part of the game to make any progress. Managed to slide around to the south and gain buildings there. I was stalled in the north as I kept pinning, breaking and ELR'ing for good measure. German Stug took out a Sherman and a Stuart. But by Turn 5, I had 13 building hexes and my opponent called it as his infantry were too broken up to take back the locations.
2020-07-26(A) Chris Anthony vs Brent Griffin American winClose game until the last turn and a half. Americans were able to overwhelm the Germans with three tanks and more units. Timely rally on turn 5 saved the American push for the center of the map.
2020-06-27(A) Dmitry Klyuykov vs Fedor Grachev American win
