Here are some photos from the WWII Soviet vs German game we played just before Christmas.
We played two scenarios, at the same time, on the same table.
Scenarios
Point Defense
- German Grenadiers vs Partisans and Cossacks
- Germans attacking
- Two Farm complexes and a crossroads as the objectives
Envelopment
- German Panzerspah vs Soviet Tank Riders and Soviet Infantry
- Germans attacking
This worked well and was particularly interesting because of the asymmetry in the forces. The Point Defense scenario ended in a draw with the Germans taking one of the farms. The Envelopment scenario was a landslide victory for the Germans, in large part due to the number of small, fast sections they had.
