The RAF turn up to hamper the German heavy boys but are driven off by AA fire |
Best see what the Royal Artillery can do instead! |
Guards MGs and a 17pdr dig in |
Here come the Stuggs and the infantry |
Shermans redeploy |
Recee elements lead the Stugg brigade into combat |
The Germans land a very well sited smoke screen! |
Luckily the British recee unit is providing line of sight for their FAC |
Trying to advance into the smoke |
The Stuggs stall |
Some brave Guardsmen advance out of the smoke |
"I say Carsters old boy those German tanks look rather close!" |
Epic fail on the rocket delivery front! |
Quick lay an ambush, the Germans will never see that coming |
The dug in 17pdr means business! |
German arty makes a return |
This can only possibly end badly for the Guardsmen, its close assault time! |
Our not, fix bayonets boys! Infantry 1 - 0 Panther! |
However their victory is short lived |
Oh f**k! |
Say hello to my little (7.2") friends! |
Surely a VC for these boys, they run out of the French chautex and PIAT a Panther to death! |
and then run back to safety! |
Street fighting! |
Its getting nasty on the right flank! |
Now that the Germans AA unit is dead the RAF are feeling a bit cocky! |
Are they Panzerfuasts? I hope not! |
Strategic withdrawl! |
Clearly one Panther is not enough for these mentalists! |
Still alive! |
Fall back to the second defensive line, err.. so the woods then sarge? |
Its looking rough in the street |
Quick limber up and leg it! |
Pointlessly mean killing of the Honey recee tank |
More Stuggs |
The 6pdr fails to withdraw |
17pdr still going strong, despite its supporting infantry withdrawing to the second line |
Is it a bird? Is it a plane? |
Its a plane armed with rockets! |
Infantry vs. FAC |
The firefly gets KO'd! |
The RAF are really keeping the Brits in it! |
The German heavy boys have made it into the British rear, ouh err missus! |
The British are getting over ran |
A final desperate bayonet charge fails to help |
The British pass a break test at -4 but the CO's driver seems to be on her way so they call it a day and the Germans win! |
Excellent pictures, a very enjoyable post!!
