Turning the Screws DB OT4 One of the larger outings from the Rees/ Operation Turnscrew issue of DftB. I sent my Scotsmen along the south side of the playing area, or should I say urban moonscape? In spite of the Scots numbers and firepower, I took it on the chin for the first few turns. The snipers did no harm with most of their shots, but the few that did connect were brutal. I lost the 10-3 and a 9-2 in two turns. Still, the Scots managed to pound their way forward. I was able to take the church, the Muhlenturm, then cleared the 360 pillbox. But, I forgot to actually, ENTER the PB...... Argh! In the last turn- the Fallschirmjager and surviving Volkstrum cousins managed to get me over the CVP cap. With out enough of the required conditions being met, German Victory. The Germans still clung to a small slice of land over looking the Rhine.
Great, big, scenario.
