Capt. Pixel -> 12/SO/E (4/20/2003 2:29:01 AM)

Apparently I'm one turn behind Scharf? :confused: It's a hot time in the old town tonight. :D A flammenwerfer team got dispatched after severely harrassing some Conscripts. Nearby, a Gun crew reported a SPW 250/9 halftrack, a MG Laf team and Zugtroop coming up a main street. Since the infantry were in retreat, Capt. Pixel ordered a T-35 forward to cover the Gun crew and engage the Germans at close range. A surprise attack from a Fuselier squad in an adjacent building was driven back by the T-35, who also managed to pop the halftrack with a 45mm shot. The MG team was destroyed and the Zugtroop was driven back down the street. The T-35 then backed away from the intersection. ;) A few houses away, a Rifle squad moved up to fire at an unsuspecting Pioneer squad. The Pioneers took casualties and retreated into the SO Rifle squad's hex. Hilarity ensued as the Soviets vainly attempted to melee with the Pioneers. They're both still contesting the building. :mad: Further east, Soviet units received fire from a PzKpfw IVe. They also managed to ambush a SPW 251/1A, a Zugtroop and another MG team. Soviet Artillery has made some adjustments to match the advancing targets. DerC seems to be picking up steam and advancing more quickly than before. :( As an aside, one mortar team has reported causing FOUR kills. There are also several runner-ups to that score. :cool: Go Arty!!
