Another quick fight. No more photos. 50pt Reccon in Force mission.
My opponent changed up his list. Dropped the Arty and brought in more infantry.
We fought on the same board, but flipped who got to go first.
US attacking, East Germans defending
The US decided to set up in the top right.
The Recce succeeded in their Cross checks and expanded into the wood line.
1 Mech Plt set up in these woods. The M1s and rest of the M113s are on the road.
I set up in the bottom left.
1st turn the US Inf and 3/4 of the M113s advance out of the woods and block off the SE side of town.
M1s race through the town and down the road.
The rest of the INF Blitz, dismount and move onto the center OBJ. His M113s form a blocking line at the SW of town.
On my turn I cant get within 4" of the OBJ.
End game.
Figured it was only fair to let him be the one to pick the starting zones and see how we fared with different conditions.
Ah, yeah I think I read the other side of this report where the units were blocked from the objective completely, very cheeky.
wow, faster than mine! good one!
Nice quick report
Yowch… that’s a tough one. United States is getting better about bringing mechanized infantry as that’s their toughest current formation… especially if you don’t have any infantry of your own.
Too bad on the loss Comrade. Recon in Force is fun mission to run, I might get another go at it this weekend with my friend.
