Gross Deutschland Kursk LCG

[Jason Petho]

Back in the saddle and after going some new Order of Battle listings in Cold War, showing off some of the new Warsaw Pact countries, we dove back into the East Front Linked Campaign that deals with Gross Deutschland at Kursk. The first scenario was filled with far too many losses, but we did manage to be successful in our attack and exit off the board. The second scenario looks like more of that beating ourselves against Russian defenders that seem to know how to shoot. It's a bloody affair, but a lot of fun!

We dove back in to the Linked Campaign where my core unit is a kampfgruppe of the Gross Deutschland during the Battle of Kursk. It's a doozy of a fight and we're suffering far too man casualties. We burned through two scenarios during this session, successfully, but the last one was a nail biter as there was a massive counter attack by T-34's and KV tanks. Talk about a nightmare and a half! But good fun, setting up ambushes - well, attempting too anyway!
