Overview:

On 27 April, in Marino, close to the Yugoslavian border, the barracks of the armored battalion "San Giusto" were seized without a fight by partisans. The next day, some tank crews will-nilly accompanied the partisans who went off to attack the SS of the "Karstjäger" Division, based in Cividale. A mixed column of five tankettes, an armored car and several trucks started up. When the Italian column was approaching the German barracks, a bit carelessly, it encountered two "Tigers"; it fact they were P26/40 tanks, former Italian vehicles.
Attacker: Allies (Reinforced elements of the Brigata Partigana "Natisone")

2020-11-24(A) Dave Mareske vs Nathan Wegener Allies winThe allies advanced and the wanna-be tigers moved out. Both were eventually taken out by the PF carrying partisan. Otherwise, it would have been Nathan's game as there were not enough allied boots on the ground to take the building stairways. The German tanks took out two full trucks of infantry with good shots that flamed both trucks. An allied 1/2 squad got a hit with the BZK but rolled a 12 on the TK...one of many 12s in the game. I think for the Germans to win this they need to keep their tanks back and defend the approaches to the victory building.
