I don't think my opponent was doing anything wrong on purpose, but man there's no way we should've only finished three-and-a-half turns in three hours, especially since he barely even moved a single stand. Oh well, next year!Richard Barneshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13605910306718208162noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8641837775363878572.post-19651024574218207582014-07-29T11:10:27.119-06:002014-07-29T11:10:27.119-06:00And no cheating opponents to suffer either.

The plan was for the Scouts to work closely with the StuH 42s, lifting Gone to Ground, etc. but I faced five tank companies. They woud've been able to work as planned in the last game, except they only arrived on or fourth and final turn. One more turn and they and the StuHs woud've been able to go to town on that Strelk!Richard Barneshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13605910306718208162noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8641837775363878572.post-25760642576342040802014-07-26T11:42:00.137-06:002014-07-26T11:42:00.137-06:00Nice report Richard, thanks for posting!

I like your list, though I'm not sure on the Scouts as recon less necessary for an infantry force in MW I reckon. <br /><br />CdlTChevalier de la Terrehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12797434491077369704noreply@blogger.com
