ASL: Dispatches from the Bunker 200: Over the Prosna

 Fun little scenario.  I did not play it well but clearing the town took a lot of work.  I recommend it for either side.  The Germans have 5.5 turns to clear the stone buildings, take the bridge, and get 6CVP (Infantry/PRC only) off the circled road.  


Starting positions.  The stream is not much of an obstacle.  There is a Polish AT Gun and Mortar hiding so I keep the tanks somewhat hidden.  Normally I would bum rush with them.  

The buildings and bridge are cleared but not sign of the AT gun or Mortar yet.  The Polish reinforcements come on.  Getting through that road will be a challange.

With just a single movement phase left and the tanks not in position to open a path the Poles pull out a win.  I needed to hurry my Germans along a bit faster (or have them in a better position after clearing the town).

ASL Scenario VotG-12: Siberian Shockwave (Game Day 5 and game end)

 

Tycho's Stuka attacks!  (and rolls boxcars on the sighting check).  I think this makes the 3rd mistaken attack he has rolled when getting air support - out of five total tries...  Luckily the Stuka does no harm other than pinning the target.






 

The German reinforcements come on.  My Russians still nearly managed to take the last dock before they got there.  Things were not to be though.




I concede the game.  I don't see a chance of taking and holding the Docks at this point although reading the VC later I think we both made a mistake.  I would not have had to control all the docks if troops got off the board.

ASL Scenario VotG-12: Siberian Shockwave (Game Day 4)

German turn 3 start.

German turn 3 end.  The Stuka automatically is available for next turn.  The Russians have been pretty much pushed off the level 1 area of the map.
