Well done
Comerade Nabeshin,
You are correct, it was the later, the HQ and one infantry team died, and the remaining team failed its Last Stand.
Thank you for reading my report
It’s strange, if the details in the report are correct then the last platoon of 4x T-72s and 1x HQ had to kill 4x Marders (1 HQ) and the remaining 3 infantry teams. Alternatively they had to kill the three teams + the HQ and let the Marders run, assuming HQ wasn’t in his Marder. Being hit on 5+ Minimum for being dug in, the more likely explanation is that the HQ and one infantry team died, and they failed Last Stand. A little more detial in the report would help clarify this.

This had a one star rating?
Wonder why. It is not a 10 but it isn’t a 1 either.
Be fair in your ratings.
And Ranger…
Spasiba for the win 🙂
