Polish forces took a heavy toll on the advancing Germans with accurate MG and artillery fire but the Germans answered with their own OBA and air support while that kept up the pressure on the Polish defenders. Since the Germans had not fully committed their panzers, the Pols counterattacked with their limited mobile reserves; an armored train, two companies of tankette’s and a couple of armored car platoons, they routed a couple of German units but then the PzIVs got into range and quickly got the situation under control, it helped that two Polish ATGs platoons were knocked out.

In the end the Polish infantry and cavalry gave as good as they got but their ATGs did minimal damage while not living up to the historical outcome of this battle. The Polish forces fought hard up till turn 16 then things started to unravel for the forces on the south road which led to a narrow German victory.
