RECENT BATTLE REPORTS
Dan Higdon

A valiant group of Soviets discovered the hard way that 5 T34-85s and 5 SU-76s are not sufficient to kill (or even really slow down) 5 Panthers and 5 Pz IVfs in an open clearing. The range and power of the Panthers' guns is just too great. [29 Mar 99]

Vince Solimine

Battle for Stonne 1940. French & Germans. Good battle with early war tanks. [28 Mar 99]

Rick Rutherford

Some of the members of our group have just started playing WWII historical games, and we're using the "Mein Panzer" rules for micro-armor. During our latest game, we had a couple of dozen Soviet T-34s assaulting a village held by a dozen German tanks, and the Soviets won a resounding victory. [26 Mar 99]

David Chong

One great aspect of Mein Panzer is that a player can quickly play an enjoyable game controlling a full battalion, but even just controlling a platoon or two each, as we did last week, is very satisfying! [26 Mar 99]

Bryan Stroup

I ran 4 games of Tracks at Jonescon in early January. A British advance guard force met stiff resistence from retreating German troops at the cross roads near hill 102. Control of the hill was imperative as it covered all roads in the area. [10 Feb 99]

Duncan Allen

The last WWII Skirmish game I played was with home grown rules although I was involved in playtesting Mein Panzer. We usually play larger scale games (Command Decision, Clash of Armour) when we do WWII. [9 Feb 99]

jrw4war

Not bad, I am usually an Infantry Skirmish gamer, but my last game of Battlecaptian went very well. [9 Feb 99]

carl Amedio

last game had a company of shermans a company of stuarts and a re-enforced platoon of jacksons track and otherwise destroy a battalion of germany's finest. The victory was due to agressive tactics of the americans and the arrogence of rhe German commander [8 Feb 99]
