The Panzer IVs slowly came onto the battlefield and set up a base of fire around the bridge stretching the river. The T34s came in all over the place and rushed toward the river to confront the German armor while the SU122 struck toward the farm to support the infantry. By the end of the game neither side had claimed the objective.

The SU122 left to try and destroy some German armor and left the Russian infantry to fend for itself. This lead up to him taking additional moral loss even though he did not lose that many units. The Old Man, in an attempt to keep the pressure on, kept drawing battle chits to keep his forces fighting.

The kicker here was the German ability to continuously keep the Soviet infantry pinned with successful area fire. They took loses as however in the form of the T34 and 2 squads. In typical Soviet fashion they charged! The first squad of Russians was swept away in a blaze of lead but more kept coming! Soviet firepower and support from an SU122, and T34 late in the game ended up killed 2 MG34 Teams and a Grenadier squad. The Germans got to the farm first and set up 2 squads and MG34 teams in and around the barn. The Soviet and German infantry both struck hard at the objective barn/farm on the hill in the German left flank. The game started out slow as we had to look up a lot of rules as a we went. I played the Germans in the form of a Panzer Group and the Old Man played a Soviet Tank Corps group.ġ Grenadier Platoon (Leutnant, command squad, 3 sqauds, 3 MG 34 Teams, 1 light mortar team)ġ Rifle Platoon (Lieutenant, 4 squards, Maxim MG Team mounted in Trucks) So we played a 400 point game using the Bridgehead scenario. As you can see from some of the pics below I used red craft rubber bands to mark casualties.

That would take forever to move them across the battlefield! So I mounted them in squads.

A full strength Soviet Rifle Platoon consists of 35 guys. I decided to base all of the infantry to make up squads and platoons easier to move across the board. All of my infantry is Battlefront / Flames of War. Most of the vehicles I have are Plastic Solider Company with a few Axis & Allies miniatures mixed in. Over the 4th of July weekend I mad a trip to the Old Man’s house and packed all my 15mm Battlegroup figures. Publishers use these marks when books are returned to them.Well I finally got in a complete game of Battlegroup Kursk and by am I happy.
