Overview:

For the veterans of Gebirgs-Division 1, who had fought in Poland, France, and the Balkans, Operation BARBAROSSA was to be a totally new experience. Under the roaring salvos of divisional artillery, the Jäger of Gebirgsjäger-Regiment 99 crossed the border and headed toward the town of Oleszyce. Along the way, they engaged in several firefights with Soviet units which seemed to be everywhere. Finally, the Jäger, together with some light mountain guns from their artillery unit, reached the outskirts of Oleszyce. To their surprise, everything was quiet and no enemy units were around. At the boundaries of a park, part of a local castle, the German soldiers took a well-deserved rest

2021-08-17(D) Rob MacGinley vs James Short Russian winI think the Germans have a very up hill battle here but I thought I was in the building only to have my men fail at the front door and for him to rally his me as well making it impossible in the time to get into and occupy the building
2020-12-04(A) Simon Staniforth vs Russian win
2020-10-10(A) Vilis Pavulans vs Erik Grande Russian winRussians entered and managed to get the NKVD troops past the german fire covering the entry points. Rushing to the main building they got there in time. Russians divided the forces and allocated a large force with the MMG to the german left flank to try to encircle or disturb the german advance but they never really had an impact. Instead it was the HiPed russians in the orchards who did the real work, breaking the german assault engineers, even killing a few of them out in the field when they closed in. After a few good shots from the russians and a sneaky move to the second level of the large building, making it possible to keep the assault engineers DMed and managing to break the 9-1, the germans decided that the castle should be left alone.
