THE MAIN EVENT! Walkure vs. Herroberst

[Der Kuenstler]

Bad time to conserve AP ammo: Here Herroberst's SU-122 has one HC shell left to finish off the gun damaged Flammpanzer, but instead he fires another useless HE shell.



This gives Walkure's JPz IV enough time to get LOS and - bam - one dead SU-122.



The Flammpanzer is no longer able to use its main gun but its coaxial mg is still working as this Russian squad finds out...



To the North, Herroberst is able to back all of his AFVs out of LOS of Walkure's vet hunting JPz IV - he has no desire to go toe to toe with those things anymore....perhaps some flank shot opportunities will come...



From the Grassy Knoll: Herroberst's men in the woods don't look as scary from his side - these are just the busted up pioneer remnants from walkure's artillery strike - they aren't even in command, and, as you can see, Walkure's tired men are ducking behind the walls out there and turning into generic icons. But they are still stuck out there.



Herroberst puts the FLANK in "flank": Look how far this lone company HQ led uberplatoon is away from the action - will they ever get into the fight?



So far I'm surprised that neither general has tried to get his halftracks' mounted MGs into the fight - that's a lot of anti-infantry firepower just sitting idle back there. Perhaps we'll see them later....
