Weasel's "Mr Panther" pic was also neat to see.
MadMike's picture "took the cake" for me. He was able to capture a rare camera angle which showed the defending Americans and also the attacking German's in the same shot.
Nicely done!
BTW, what was the outcome of that firefight?
Cheers, Compass Rose.
the firefight ended well enough, but only because my opponent chose to withdraw his Panther to employ it elsewhere. I got one halftrack with the bazooka, but from then on, it got worse for the defenders.
My opponent targeted the bocage line and the troops were hit by heavy mortar fire, maybe only one third of the troops in the picture survived. But it was enough to convince my opponent to try his luck elsewhere, where I could aim with my own battery of 105s, which turned around the battle for me. So this defence was quite crucial and ultimately a great effort by an ad-hoc defence team.
