Chain of command   Leave a comment

We revisited Chain of Command after ten years . Mike and Bruce played the Germans defending a village whilst Darryl and Phil’s Soviets had to push them out .

The scenario was taken from the chain of command scenario book where the Germans are trying to break through to Stalingrad.

The German panzergrenadiers defended stoutly slaughtering any Russian infantry who left the relative safety of the woods. Also even those within suffered against two LMG per squad.

However the Russian tank managed to evade and survive against the anti tank gun which failed to penetrate its armour. Once to the side of the village and out of sight it set about destroying the houses and chasing out any defenders .

Finally with time moving on the Germans decided to withdraw as they had no real answer to the Russian tank and were running out of infantry targets .

Well played everyone and great to get the rules out again . Failed to take photos !
