2022-03-17(A) Dave Mareske vs Dan Sullivan British wineASL open first round. Brits rolled lots of 2s and 3s and the British Sniper had fun picking off CE vehicles. The Germans were able to get some smoke, but eventually Malfed both guns by Turn 3. The Brits were able to hang on to one building hex.
2022-03-11(D) Glen Taylor vs Dennis British win
2022-03-11(D) Indy Lagu vs Rob Oler British winOur first foray into Operation Neptune: this scenario didn't disappoint.

We both felt as though our sides were being slowly eroded. The terrain
is a bit claustrophobic and does not allow for a lot of long shots.

Rob chose not to dismount his Carrier HS...in hindsight that might have been
a mistake. The Marders are great AT assets, but a tad vulnerable. I fired some
AP at infantry early on (to save the HE7).

Our scenario came down to the last CC phase. Rob said that if this one isn't a 10,
what is? Still, I wonder if that is a statement about the scenario, or our specific
playing...

Try it!
