Overview:

The 43rd Wessex Division sent a message to XXX Corps HQ that was unusually realistic: “214th Brigade are going to have another crack at Elst, in which every house contains a bazooka and a few infantry. Will be a slow job but should be cleared up today.” Each battalion of the brigade would swing two of its three companies out into the open country to protect either flank of the attack; the third company would be held in reserve. This would be an all-out effort to clear the Germans from Elst. What no one in 214th Brigade knew was that “Hell’s Highway” had been cut once more by the Germans and therefore the British artillery ammunition was being rationed.
Attacker: British (1st Battalion, The Worcestershire Regiment, 7th Battalion, Somerset Light Infantry, 214th Brigade, 43rd Wesses Division and 4/7 Dragoon Guards, 8th Armoured Brigade)

2021-09-30(A) Ian Morris vs Gerard British winGot off the southern exit with two squads and a Malf’ed MA Sherman. Won on turn 7 when the second Malf’ed MA Sherman survived a Panther dud and exited when he gacked his IF shot.
2020-07-02(D) Kevin Sanders vs DerekD British winUtter ass kick by Brits. No idea how to even try to hold as German. Not a good time for either side really.
2018-10-29(A) O Ramaille vs British winThe British massed all their infantry and tanks in order to attack frontally. Smoke provided cover for the British advance and the first defenders were quickly overwhelmed. The Panther and some good use of panzerfausts destroyed all Shermans and the Firefly. But Major Souper destroyed the German panzer with a captured panzerschrek. The German OBA was practically ineffective and did not prevent the elimination of SS infantry units. A major victory for the British despite the loss of their tanks.
2016-04-30(D) JP Laurio vs Arttu German (SS) win
2014-06-23(A) Marc Guénette vs Samuel Harper British winExcellent situation. The British must be blunt to win. Move, advance, fire. Panzerfaust are killers. Good replayability.
