First & Last Stand (Tiger88-Germans vs Big Dawg-Russians)
Turn 13 or so

Comrade LT. General Ivan Briscovich's plan called for an assault in mass into the ruins of the nameless small village in the center of his map. Surely the German commander would retreat in the face of such overwhelming odds because that is what the Russian commander would do. Surely this German commander will determine that he has a far better chance giving up ground in the face of a certain defeat.

Comrade Lt. General Ivan Briscovich watched in horror as his regiment was slaughtered with each consecutive assault. Whole companies disappeared with each passing moment.

The Lt. General ordered his commanders to move their men into the town. "Seize the town now", screamed the Lt. General.

"Major Korkov, Major Anovich, report your positions!"

"Comrade Lt. General everyone is dead", replied the radio operator. The Majors were captured with most of their men during one of the German counter-attack. We are down to company strength. All the others are dead or captured. There are no more infantry. They are all dead."

The Russian Lt General knew that his days were numbered. Who was that German commander? How could he destroy such a fine army so quickly? Was he so good, or was the Russian just overrated? The Russian commander unsnapped his pistol holster knowing that death was certain. "I will not die before an execution squad in disgrace".
