RE: The Struggle For A Commission: The Diary
Another session today, this time against Tony Langston as we kicked off the Beyond Normandy scenario 43rd Wessex Division Attacks.
It features a 2 bttn British attack against the fanatics of the 12th SS Hitlerjugend Division. With masses of British OBA and infantrymen against the outnumbered but young beserkers of the SS, this is going to be a bloody affair as both sides try to control Mouen by the end of the day.
After 5 turns played, the British have already lost 7 RIF steps and 2 Achillies steps. The Germans have lost 3 GREN steps and an officer. The British made an incursion on the town perimeter at Bas De Mouen and they gained an advantage in assault against a Panther and reduced GREN platoon, but the tables turned quickly when the tanks recovered from disruption and had a full platoon of GREN's to reinforce. Its only a 15 turn game, so we are expecting a draw as it will be difficult for either side to gain full control of either Bas de Mouen and Mouen itself. But it will be bloody.
