BrianG V Pelton round 2 ( PELTON OK ZONE)

[chaos45]

I would have to re-read the rules but its why i drove on narva and pskov so hard in my game vs pelton while mainly taking finland from the north as all my units south of leningrad were pushing for the other 2 cities to reach the surrender condition....

Also keep in mind they made the roll a smaller percentage so even when you hit the condition it can take several rolls to get the surrender....as even after I hit the conditions I think it took 3-4 turns before the finnish finally surrendered.

[BrianG]

1 steps back

pre Russian moves

[BrianG]

A late snow allowed localized attacks

[BrianG]

a heavy turn of rr cuts

[BrianG]

I was trying to get to West side of major river.

Large failed attack

[BrianG]

my northern open screen

[BrianG]

South open before moves.

He retreats back to major river.
My south rr will be linked in 2 more turns

[BrianG]

Middle open. More tactical retreat.

[BrianG]

Failed Mud attack. They will fall next Mud.

[BrianG]

I continue to push West south of lake Ilmen.

It looks promising that something may develop for exploit.

That may also be my imagination[8|] run wild.

[BrianG]

Zhuhov and 5000 artillery tubes.

Nice combo!

[BrianG]

Well. Please explain how the Italian unit slipped away from this attack.

[BrianG]

1 down 4 more to go?

My rr finally got close enough to the Finnish town.

I never got further than the minor north/south river which is East of Helsinki

[Ramblinman]

Well, the unit may have escaped , but at most with 42 men and a single gun...

[BrianG]

I break thru and attack weak unit to displace 2nd ARMY HQ.

Wish I know who was in command.

[BrianG]

Here- more hq's will get the heave ho!

2 in 1 hex.

Hasty attack

[BrianG]

No hq means



No attachment support for this important attack

[BrianG]

Final positions East of Smolensk.

A pretty good attack into the retreating Germans.

[BrianG]

What I see when I open the map. Pelton moves inf unit forward and thus knows it will be surrounded and sealed.

He also retreated into where space is clear weather.

[BrianG]

Final middle


2 units trapped. I will continue to attack West from here.

and will start to move in mobile troops from south to exploit
