"I wonder how the world will look after this war ends. I know that for me, it will never been the same. But will the world remember? Or will we be a forgotten battle lost in a sea of history?" - Last diary entry of Oberleutnant Diederich Weiss, recovered by Col. Orlovsky after the battle.

Secure all M752 Lance sites.

Stragglers of Boris Company come in earlier than expected, following the trail of Gregori Company.

Col. Orlovsky (Sokol-1) now in a T-64, joins a newly formed Gregori Company setting up on the left flank. Rolling forward, Gregori Company flushes out the German defenders. Four of the T-64s focus on the Marders, knocking them out with ease. Another four T-64s fire upon the defending infantry and wipe out a Milan group.

Charlotte Company moves quickly behind the hill of the Lance battery.

A Milan is fired from the infantry crew with one hit but the Composite armor shrugs the rounds off.

Anticipating a counter attack by armored force, Gregori Company takes cover behind a trailer. Firing once again upon the German infantry, killing a rifle squad and another Milan.

Boris Company moves to the right left behind a train wreck.

The Infantry flees

Charlotte Company rolls over the hill and lays siege to the frontal armor of the exposed T-64s. Managing to only score one kill.

The full fury of the Soviets is now bearing down on Charlotte Company. They have little chance as both Gregori and Boris Company unleash the full might of their Soviet arsenal wiping them from existence.

With no remaining units on the board, the Soviets capture the objectives. A roll of a 3 was the result for my opponent's reserves. The Objectives we once again uncontested.

However, a new scenario where all forces were to be placed on the field in the next battle report.
