Turn One: Soviets have the initiative. I advanced my T72s in order to conduct a frontal While my BMP-2s held on the right as a fire base. My infantry moved up my left flank as a cutoff force.
During the first turn my goal was to kill the Gepards.This would allow air support could come in UN-hindered. Easy enough with 8 T 72s and 4 BMP-2s firing their missiles. Well apparently no one adjusted their sights after the road move and all shots were missed.
Turn 2: One section of Soviet tanks advances to engage the Gepards while the other section of T-72s advances to close with the German infantry. BMP-2s engage and destroy all but one Marder on the right flank. The Marder stays but is bailed. Soviet Infantry moves to a firing position on the left.
Turn 3: Soviet T-72s move into close range with the German infantry. Due to a tactical error the shilkas move up to hopefully wipe out the German infantry. Soviet Infantry advance on the remaining gepards.
Turn3: Leo 1s show up. Leo 2s and LEO ones destroy the Shilka section and finish off the Surviving member of the T-72 platoon. Tornados drop their salvo on the Commander and he is killed.
Turn 4: Soviet Infantry bail a marder. The powerful soviet air force shows their might by destroying a section of Leo-2s. The enemy commander is destroyed.
DEFEAT! This was a close game. It came down to a T72 company passing a morale check to end the game. They failed and since my commander was dead that was it. Had they passed I still had my frogfoots and hinds which would have taken care of the Remaining leo 1s. As well as BMP-2s and Infantry. The German player had 3Leo 1s ,infantry and a tornado left. This match was really bloody but I had fun. Hopefully next time I will bring the motherland a victory.
Well done PEIPER, keep the Ruhr clean of Soviet Tourists, they are so noisy 🙂
