Overview:
We took it on the chin this time, losing three vehicles and several men. With the exception of chasing the enemy infantry off from the far southern flank, we inflicted no noticeable damage to the enemy.

Tactical assessment:
The north poses an interesting situation. RealDeal’s two halftracks (with squads & flamethrower) have penetrated that flank quite nicely, and the wooded terrain may permit a foot assault from there. Golden Eagle lost a halftrack but he and Qwikshot are in a good position to follow up RealDeal. Coffee Warlord’s two tanks are advancing directly in front of that enemy-occupied low ridge, but I can’t tell if the Russians will be visible from that route (if so, they will be hull down, however). Travis’ remaining panzerjager may be able to engage the Russian armor from a distance to cover the other units’ advance.

Sachmo’s armored cars are now on their own in the section north of the road. I think that the Russian AT gun behind the low ridge is nasty, but am still not certain if that’s what killed Travis’ panzerjager.

The upper south is a definite hot spot. We’ve lost one of kingfc22’s Stugs, and the other one is out of armor-piercing ammo (it can still go after lightly armored stuff and AT guns). The two Pz-IIIhs (blade6119) are hitting that T-34, but haven’t knocked it out. That AT gun is a bitch. The enemy BT-7 light tank is less of a concern, but still active.

Calis has a good position in the woods, and his 50mm mortar is in position to start hitting either the infantry or (perhaps) the AT gun.

The Afoci has his halftracks ready to get into the game. MrBug’s mortars and the 105mm artillery spotter are still undeployed. SirFozzie’s Pz-IVds are in a good position to go anywhere in that middle section. Blade and samifan24’s infantry have good wooded cover to advance in. Tasan’s Pz-IVds are in the wheatfield and rolling up the southern flank. DataKing has MG halftracks and the HMGs at his disposal.

Just prior to the sad end of a Stug…
