Day2 - Chronicles Of V Panzer Army DAR - Allied Side of Things...

[Tiger 88]

Well fellas - here is where things stand as I begin my turn (end of day 6):



The battle continues to be bloody on both sides...men and equipment have fallen, and as I reported to you on day 5 - the Hun's have not gained that much more ground since. Scott has penetrated both fords that we have been playing for and I believe he is coming at me with KG Telkamp from the West, with a merge of other forces from the East Meyerode. I have tons of 7th AD reinforcements rushing to St. Vivth - I may begin to loosen my grip on some of the ground east of this city - just to spring a nasty trap of shermans and armored infantry upon his forces....I will have to see what he has from the North before I decide!

Here is the ford at Burgruland:



Here is the ford further North:



There is the 500pt city vhex in contention here - I will play hard with his forces here to cut down as many troops as I can. One thing I have noticed is the lack of armor units he has at the front - tons of infantry - perhaps the battle around Schoenberg took its toll - I sure hope so!

Here are the armor losses thus far:



Here are the infantry losses as well:



Here is where things stand at the end of day6:



I managed to pick up another 69points of value, mostly infantry from good arty kills and fire fights along the front, and a small tank battle up Northeast of St.Vivth - where his merging forces from the east are trying to link with KG Telkamp - I managed to kill a King Tiger and made one platoon retreat.
