Firestorm: Red Thunder

American vs Soviet

50pts

Abrams HQ, Alpha Company (3 Abrams) and Bravo Company (2 Abrams) dash to the objectives on the far side of the table.

1st Scout platoon moves ahead of the Abrams trying to get into a better location.

Colonel Orlovsky joins Anna Company, both Anna and Boris Company dash to the cover behind a patch of forest close to the objectives.

The Abrams push further and secure the objective in the open however are unable to push any further without heavy casualties.

The scout team still has no shots.

All BMP-2s unload their infantry and move behind the buildings. The infantry dash past the BMP-2s and head into the buildings securing the VIP from the building.

The Alpha Company and Bravo Company push around the town outskirts and find the BMP-2s. All Abrams except for two let loose into the BMP-2 formations knocking out seven BMP-2s in a single action.

The scout platoon secures the objective.

The BMP-2s although caught off guard by the onslaught do not run.

Successfully making a blitz move the BMP-2s fan out for maximum coverage of the Abrams and open fire with they're AT-5s knocking out four Abrams including the HQ. The Americans are in for a treat.

Anna Company's infantry move quietly and quickly (blitz) towards the what remains of the Abrams formations and open fire with their RPGs. Smoke surrounds their locations, one Abrams is bailed out. The remaining troops advance on the Abrams and begin their assault. Bravo Company opens up with a fierce barrage of lead but it does little to dissuade the Soviet assault. Anna Company opens up with more RPGs to the rear of the tanks setting them on-fire, effectively crippling the remaining Abrams. (two Abrams destroyed and another Captured/bailed and can't run away)

The Scout platoon holds their ground playing for time.

Anna Company moves into the buildings across the street and doesn't have enough momentum to assault the scout platoon so they wait and catch their breath.

The M113 opens up with the .50cal and knocks out a rifle team.

The American player surrenders after their turn however an eye for an eye and the Soviet infantry move in to kill the scout squad. With their RPGs reloaded, they fire and knock out the vehicles leaving no survivors.

No pics as it was done with paper cut outs at college, didn't think it was worth the time for pictures.
