The Germans deployed with Half the forces to the north, and half to the south with the HMG. The Soviets spread out their forces with the SMG platoon in the middle. A charge by the Germans from both directions quickly resulted in heavy losses. However they managed to assault into the NW of the town with a full company, which managed to grind the Soviets down over the next few turns, but not soon enough to move on and capture more of the town. In the south, a single Soviet platoon fought resolutely and held up half the German force for mucgh of th e game. In the end, the Germans captured five hexes, but the defenders held on with two platoons in two hexes. Thanks again for good mentoring from treadasaurusrex and his deserved win.

A good game, and fun to play with a worthy opponent, but the darn Soviets received some unexpected luck from the whimsical PG dice gods, or this would have been an Axis win.
