Overview:

On the day that Operation MARKET-GARDEN officially ended, the 7th Somerset Light Infantry was ordered to capture the crossroads in the center of Elst. Supported by a troop of tanks, the Somersets jumped off at 1000 hours on either side of the main street of Elst, moving towards the Nijmegen-Arnhem Highway through the dense town with its houses and small orchards. Major Knaust, however, was not yet ready to give up the town.
Attacker: British (7th Somerset Light Infantry, 214th Brigade, 43rd Wessex Division)

2025-05-07(A) Alvaro Diaz-Arce vs Manolo British winThe HMG on the Steeple was a problem solved with OBA Smoke, the it all was a slow advance using smoke and opponent conceded in T5.
2023-06-19(D) Bob McKenna vs Robert Kroczynski British winBritish drove down German right flank. OBA disrupted AT gun. SS tried to fall back but were overwhelm in the south. Germans shrecked a tank in.the North but constant fire drove SS deeper into the town, Constant casualties to.tje SS wore them down and nearly surrounded ended the fight early.
2021-10-21(D) Ian Morris vs Gerard British winA close game, Brits won on last CC phase.
2021-07-12(A) Doba Serge vs Pascal Boileau British win
2021-07-12(D) Pascal Boileau vs Serge Doba British winDespite a bad setup for the Germans (my side), it was not so easy for the British troops to progress towards the North of the map and to occupy the buildings. The smoke of the OBA helped a lot in the first turns of play. Ferocious CC at turn 6 gave a decisive advantage for the British. The end of the game was decided in the last CC... and as usual in this kind of situation (i.e. the issue of the game is decided on the last DR), I lost !
