[Basson]

Turn 12-13 Basson vs Michael

The German counter attack flanking the Russians from the south and east is now in full progress. The Russians are in firm control of the high ground north of Krupki, but in a rather exposed position.

A JagdPzIV nosing down the highway approaching "Krupki Heights" (according to a liberated Krupki estate agent) from the east is destroyed by an ambushing 85mm AT gun. The Panthers following merely shrugs off the AP rounds from their frontal armour. About 7 Panthers plow on unsupported through the cornfields east of the ridge and are captured, only after defying numerous AP shots at their supposedly thin rear armour.

Further east the abandoned T34's are duly destroyed. A Pak is unloaded on the Krupki railway line and immediately comes under fire from Russian 122's fire over open sights, but survives.

West of Krupki heights a remaining Tiger is driven off and Hummel unit destroyed.

Col Bassonvich however knows that a hammer blow from the remaining German Panthers from the east down the Krupki Highway must surely follow. Can his handfull of dog tired tankers hold on to their minor victory?
