I now have the northern and central V-hexes under my control. One full and a half platoon of T-34s were destroyed. There's still at least two platoons of them trying to attack me in the south.

I killed the remaining paratroopers near my south VHs.

Half a dozen turns left. :p

I lost a 88mm but got another one of those T-34s. Nothing major otherwise, a few dead infantry teams.

I lost maybe three PzIIIs this turn.
There was one T34 on a hill that destroyed two of them
A mortar team and some infantry squads hit one T-34 with all they had and finally managed to immobilize it.
It's getting quiet. I haven't seen Russian infantry in a while, and the T-34s seem to be disappearing too.

A crew got killed from collateral damage when I was firing at an immobilized T-34. The one immobilized on one of my rear VHs was destroyed, but since Wehrmacht rifle squads don't have anything to take out tanks I couldn't kill the other one further south-east.

I also took the southern VHs back. I wonder if I could still capture red's rear VHs. :rolleyes:

The end is near. I finally manage to destroy the other immobilized T-34.

Near red's rear VHs, a platoon of SMG infantry tried to close assault my tanks. They didn't destroy any of them but at least one of the tanks is now running back to Mutter.

Other fronts are quiet and I don't expect anymore surprises. Just a few more turns and we're done. It's still hard to say who'll win this.

One of the tanks is still continuing its escape.
I load a SS squad into a truck and drive right into an ambush! A SMG squad and scout team fire at the truck but miss. The SS jumps off and starts shooting, hitting nothing :rolleyes: Then suddenly a tank appears from behind the SMG squad and starts shooting it to rags with MGs. The Russians retreat and the scout team is totally wiped out.

North of red's rear VHs I attack and rout a platoon of infantry.

PzIII tanks charge the village where the last VHs under soviet control are. The SMG squads there are already retreating and the 5cm guns give them just a little bit more speed.

A batallion of 150mm FHs fires at the village at the end of my turn. Even more infantry is killed. The Russians are still trying to reinforce the village but it's too late.. Next turn I'll hopefully have all the VHs. :p

Just killing Russian infantry. I now have all the VHs.
A 150mm grenade strayed away from its target and hit a PzIII in the side. No damage though. :rolleyes:

Well, I think this one clearly goes to DerC. But the kicker is that we have a DRAW

P.S. : The ending was a little funny, I dragged a 120 mm mortar on LOS and killed a Pz III next turn

Hey, you finally posted! I was starting to get a little lonely

I think it was pretty even at the beginning, but then red had the upper hand for until turn 15 or so. I'm a bit surprised actually about how much more points I have. However I did destroy at least two companies of tanks... :p
Oh well. You can't always win. Not even every time.

It was an interesting tactic you used, with some more development it might get even better.

yeah, actually this was my third pbem at all and it gave me very good experience so thank you sansei DerC.

My fourth PBEM
But I've played lots against other humans in online play. PBEM just is better for bigger battles.
