Overview:
The Fuhrer was dead and the Soviet juggernaut was fast closing in on the remnants of the 1st SS Panzer Division (Leibstandarte). Now, even these, the most fanatical German troops knew the war was over. None of them wanted to be the last to die, or even worse, become a prisoner of the Russians. On 2 May, Untersturmfuhrer Warnecke led a detachment of former Tiger tank crews from SS-Panzer Abteilung 591 to the Nibelungen Work to draw two new Jagdtigers and bring them back to the division headquarters. From there, they road-marched to Waidhofen where they formed a kampfgruppe with ten newly delivered Panzer IVs. Their mission was to delay the lead elements of the Russian 20th Guards Rifle Corps while the rest of Leibstandarte retreated to the west, taking the last open corridor to surrender to the American army. One Jagdtiger was immobilized and had to be destroyed by its crew before the fight even started, leaving the last Jagdtiger to wait in ambush with the Panzer IVs. Soon, Russian tanks came into view. . .Attacker: Russian (20th Guards Rifle Corps, 4th Guards Army, 3rd Ukrainian Front)
Defender: German (SS) (Kompanie 7, Panzer Regiment 1, and SS Panzer Abteilung 501, SS-Panzer Division 1 (Leibstandarte))

| 2025-12-05 | (A) Paul Legg | vs | Dan Lepore | Russian win (VASL Log) | Friday Night Fight Initial die rolls in mine and Dan's 1st turn threw Dan a bit on to his back foot. I of course kept the pressure up to stop him regaining equilibrium. I elected to put the wrecks in 2aN11 and 5aE15 to prevent or mitigate any possible fire-lanes and covering MA shots. Dan set up fairly dispersed with most units not seemingly supported by other units. I decided to split into 3 attack routes; through the centre and flanking to the west and east, one of the SC went on hill 523 to initially deny some ? gains and interdict back field movements. The eastern force, of 3 T34s 2 squads and 7-0, moved through the small valley to get to 2aN5,N6 and O5, threatening 5aB7. To the west 2 T34's and 2 squads with 8-1 moved onto hill 491 to threaten 2aO19. Finally the centre group split to attack through the gully to take the bridge and 2aK14-15 building. The SS seemed to not be in the fight failing many MC and almost ELRing a couple of times, my Russians did better, bouncing back if they did break. By Russian turn 3 the Germans were reduced to 1.5 GO squads a PzIV and JgdTiger wherein Dan conceded. | ||
| 2025-12-05 | (D) Douglas Leslie | vs | David Blackwood | German (SS) win | Had a great evening playing David Blackwood on Friday Fight Night. The early going was hard for the defenders as they were driven back with early casualties. I set up as far back as possible with AFVs in rear buildings. Fighting was fierce as the Russians closed in on the German defenders who managed to take down three T-34s while losing both PzIVs. With one turn remaining, the JgdPz left the protection of its building and moved into a hex containing a burning wreck while remaining in motion. David managed to advance two squads with leaders into the hex and ambush it. He just needed to roll a 5 from two attempts to get the win but missed with both attempts to allow me to squeak hone for the victory. Great game against a great opponent.. | ||
