Panic in Detroit | ||||||||||||
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
0900 hours, 25 June 1941: (playing Scenario 8, bridge over the River Styr from Panzergrenadier's Fire in the Steppe). The Germans attacked at dawn to seize the bridge over the Styr river. the Soviets attempted to get units across the bridge to withdraw under German pressure. A couple of gun batteries made it across then just like in the real battle, panic set in and the bridge became clogged. As the Germans approached, the Soviets tried to hold a line while attempting to clear the bridge of panicking soldiers. They sent a KV-2 platoon to push crazed soldiers off the bridge into the water. This worked until the Stukas game and knocked out the KV-2s. The Germans out flanked the Russians on their left and then broke through to the bridge. At 0800 the Soviet defense collapsed and by 0900 the Germans were on the bridge and the remaining Soviets were trapped. A German major victory. This completes the First Battle game of the module. Both sides achieved their objectives, the Germans captured the bridge and the Soviets denied the the Germans their loss objective in Scenario six. The battle game is a draw. |
