A feirce assualt is lauched by infantry ! casualties on both sides but the armored crews decide to get out of there! ( At first assault I have experienced thought it was more like FOW where they break off....its not.)
The German advance goes well. This is bad news for the motherland.
Every things on fire! not how higher planned it.
The motherlands brave infantry bravly take the fight to the enemey
Leo 1S Take casualties but alas its not enough....The Soviets are defeated.

Ok so here's the scoop . I'm Drunk. Turn one I killed the enemy commander. That's it. my arty ranged in but hit nothing. German turn one. Their Air support killed my tanks on the right flank minus my commander and my T72s that advanced. I also lost my aa and recce bottom turn one. Turn two. I Killed leao one section on the right flank and leo 1 section on the right flank..
Turn 3 I fire at infantry on the right and things on the left.

My right flank is assaulted by infantry. My tanks die. My commander is left on the right flank.
My infantry kill some leo 1s but its not enough the enemy wins. Gepards and leo 1s swarm my left flank. Its all over.

    Well presented AAR with good pictures

    Mask, & excellent terrain you fought over. Another valiant try, but with PEIPER you have to watch every ally 😉

    like the cap & bottle, but don’t drink & game!

    thx 4 sharing

    I like how both reports use some of the same picture, Then just change the wording! The classic eight ball!
