OK we got another turn in last night. We are sitting at German T6 prep fire.
Pictures this time. Along the N33
Mostly a stalemate right now, under his pinned fanatic guy is an objective hex we are trying to hold for both sides. This pinned guy survived a 36 +1 (rolled 11). The BU ht is one of the FT ht who might come over and deal with him. THe Panther near the road is likely going to be the first target for his 2 planes that finally arrived. I fully expect that when I say "OK movement" to hear plane noises from him...
North of the Sanitorium we have broken or pushed back everyone in the treeline:
The hero clearly got ahead of his buddies... The Americans are likely going to keep hold of the LVP in II17, I got close to it but then his OBA stalled me in the trench line. The OBA observer was in HH17 and I finally found him and then threw everything at it and broke him. His last OBA mission drifted max 2 into an open area right before I broke him.
Going up the to the hill battle we see:
Again I've pushed him back but it cost me. I lost another Panther when I missed a baz advance fire shot to him while he was in bypass. This was just my poor play, I could have shot him easily but never saw it. We don't play enough to avoid these mistakes... The other Panther in this picture is bogged after going over some barb wire. The CE flakpanzer here is protecting this one I hope. I want to get him unbogged and moved into the tree road or into the open area where he is protected still.
Final picture is into the forest battle on the hill:
This is a stalemate too. His brush guy is on an objective I can't get to, the burning 75 M4 just happened to the 127 psk that sneaked up under ? and survived. Missed him on his turn when he was pinned but got him in prep just now. The 105 there could have been dead as well, under his acq. I have a 658 with a baz that has missed, hit, bounce in the last turn turns and missed 2 PF shots... The ? american stack in between those guys is a 9-2 .50/667 so he has a exclusion zone... I have another objective hex just in front of my guys on the right that I will claim to have a jumping off point/defense line for the next scenarios...
So it looks like he will keep 3 LVP. If it goes too long his planes can wreak havoc each turn. We both have about the same number of AFVs left (not counting my HTs) and his rough count of American squads is 15 to maybe my 25-30?
