__________BURZEVO*

Designed M4 Jess Housley*

By the end of November, Operation Typhoon had broken down. Lead forces of the 258th Infantry Division was ordered to take and hold the village of Burzevo along the Minsk-Moscow road.*
*
The Germans never feared a counter-attack on this -30^F night with a blizzard brewing.*
*
The Russian 20th Tank Brigade had other thoughts.*
*
Play either side with C&C off.*

M4 :rolleyes:

Wow! after blasting the first dozen Soviet tanks in short order, I was thinking, 'This is easy'. Wait a sec, where did he come from? No prob, handle it with this unit. Wait a sec, now where did HE come from? Its OK, I'll just shift this guy down there. CRAP! Where the heck are they all coming from!??! 'HELP! We need reinforcements HQ!'. 'You're gonna have to hold on your own, you're all there is!' Was that Russian I heard in the background before the field phone went dead?

REAL fun Jess. Although initially, it was like shooting up Shermans with one of the Big Cats!

Dear lord Jess, as soon as I think Ive finally played all the scenarios I had back logged you come in with another one.

I played you school house one this morning as The Russians.

The Germans took most of the city, except for the a thin strip of the right side running from the top to the bottom.

I had saved all my reinforcements and counterattacked savagly back to the center of the map.

I lost most of that and the German began to move again with their limited forces. Then my cavlary came and I assulted the Germans again. My poor dragoons took 91% losses but got 2 infantry platoons and 3 Ferninands(sp?).

Nice work. Excellent urban combat scernario.

Im still waiting for that Fallschirmjager on Crete cmapign though.....jk

I could probably trounce it with an Arctic Kat! Since it has no turret, I would have to bring a javelin or sling shot!:p

I got a draw on this beast jess. 5600 Soviet to my 6400.

Anyone do that good on the German side yet?

I took out 400 Bolsheviks and lost 300

I waxed 78 of their armored pieces.

Very enjoyable Bing and myself are in the process of playing this online. Nicely done:D

Jess you just don't want me to finish MCWT do you? I've only managed 3 engagements so far. One draw and 2 DVs.

On a subject near and dear to your heart I am developing a new found respect for your favorite "ride";)

Scared? No. I will admit that I have a healthy respect for the M4. I mean, how clever of them to make a tank that the enemies' rounds actually penetrated both sides of the vehicle! This way, they don't ricochet around inside!;)
