BrianG V Pelton round 2 ( PELTON OK ZONE)

[BrianG]

I reached this hex with Infantry and attack.

Wrong river, obviously, to attack over.

[BrianG]

attack 1

[BrianG]

push 2 or 3.

If I can poke a whole each turn in the line I think Pelton will keep retreating

[BrianG]

push 4

[BrianG]

Push 5.

a loss!

Here for first time in awhile, German get 2 reserve activations.

It does the defense just fine.

[BrianG]

Final land bridge positions.

Further south I push on up to the river lines.

You are all up to date as of this panel.

I am waiting for Peltons next retreat although he may continue to make a stand at land bridge.

Otherwise I think he wants to hold the lines along major rivers.


I hope to be well across before mud sets in.

[BrianG]

retreats

[BrianG]

I lose one retreat

[BrianG]

I look for a hole to push thru. This will hasten the retreating with minimal Russian effort

[BrianG]

one hex v one hex. my green colored army seems to be my top ARMY.

I may have displaced his hq prior to this battle. Not sure how though.

[BrianG]

I attack up the middle .

[BrianG]

a few hexes south also attacked

[BrianG]

here is my lineup for attack across major river.

[BrianG]

attack result. I get over the river.

Pelton will then hold the adjacent hexes for many turns. I will not enlarge this bridgehead.

[BrianG]

end positions

[BrianG]

souyh end. I push to Kiev hoping for a river crossing to attack

[BrianG]

more retreat. 2 units trapped

[BrianG]

Here my river crossing troops are sent back over the river

[BrianG]

Deep recon

I figure these retreating units are heading north via the west part of the swamps. The right swamp is now in my control.


obviously the Germans are low in RR capacity

[BrianG]

back over the river.

To stay it seems!
