Scenario PzLi008

Played solo.

A 12-turn urban assault scenario.

The German attackers have 8 SPW 251 and I believe they are the key to the success of failure of the operation. Get enough of them into assaulting the town and the Soviets will have a really hard time. Lose too many to the Soviet AT guns and the Germans may run out of time.

The first 57mm AT shot resulted in a SPW 251 kill. The Germans replied with their OBA and demoralized the gun (which never recovered). The second 45mm AT gun suffered the same fate after it also killed a SPW 251. With only the 76.2mm gun available, the Germans rushed forward. The 76.2mm reduced a panzer but never got another shot off afterwards.

The Germans quickly took control of 2 town hexes and contested 3 others. With the Germans ahead by 11 victory points, I decided to throw in the Soviet towel.

German major victory.

I rate this one a "3". It is the right size for Skype and would likely be a much more tense affair if the Germans OBA was not so lucky.
