Overview:

1st Ukrainian Front commenced its attack toward Berlin on 16 April with 2nd Polish Army protecting the left flank of the advance toward Dresden and Bautzen. Bautzen was declared a fortress by German High Command, forbidding the defenders to retreat or surrender. Bautzen was encircled and occupied in part by Poles, and the Germans frantically waited for a counterattack which might save them from imminent defeat. Finally, on 21 April, the Germans launched their last large-scale counterattack consisting of three panzer and two infantry divisions. Among them was Fallschirm-Panzer-Division 1 "Hermann Goring", not the crack unit it once was but still a formidable force. While Bautzen was cleared of enemy troops, "Hermann Goring" and Sturmgeschutz-Brigade 311 attacked the Polish units north of Bautzen.

2023-03-09(D) Maurizio Mai vs Fabio Mazzucchelli German winAs Defender I screw up the scenario set up, misunderstanding the reinforcement group entry side. The "sudden death" was certain. I gave up one building (few dummies) hoping not to lose any CVP (or at least not more than the German) before Turn 4. Together with my opponent we agree it is a difficult scenario for the Polish.
2023-02-23(A) Eric Partizan Eric vs German win
2023-02-20(D) O Ramaille vs Xavier Vitry German winThe Polish divided their forces to defend the 3 separated key buildings. The German pushed hard and attacked the factory with the Panthers. The Russian infantry heroically destroyed them in CC. The German however quickly overwhelmed most of the defenders leaving only a surrounded berserk commissar defending the factory. To the North, the defenders performed better destroying all panzers. An ISU122 came to the rescue of the factory but was immobilized with the crew abandoning the AFV. The Russian infantry was too far to help. The Factory finally fell and the German won.
A festival of 2's (8 for the Russian with two of them having no effect) and 12's (3 only for TKs). A very fun game.
