THE MAIN EVENT II! Lord Bane vs. Matteponk

RE: THE MAIN EVENT II!
I am trying out MickeyD and Dey's whitewashed T34/85 mod that Rico sent me today - thanks guys!

Minute seven: In the South, no vehicles are destroyed - but we can see Lord Bane is sending some of his T34 army on a flanking move. They spot one of Matteponk's approaching infantry platoons and start firing at them. LB's other T34s on the right are sitting back area firing another German infantry platoon which is getting pretty banged up and panicking.

At town center, Lord Bane gets aggressive and tries to go for a knockout punch. He sends his lone vet T34/85 straight up the road hoping to get a side shot on the turretless IV70, but on the way he runs up on another of Matteponk's Pz IVJs. No worry - the green IVJ proves inept - they fire three times and miss every time. The T34 then takes them out - but they have distracted him. The IV70 has had time to turn around and aim point blank for next minute.

Fluidwill asked about the infantry situation. Here is a recon photo looking straight down on the town. Matteponk has a battalion compared to LB's company.

I'd be more positive about Matteponk's chances if his infantry choices had been different - this Volksgrenadier battalion is mostly for short range fighting - and with the lack of cover in winter I doubt if he can get that close. A bunch of crack schrek teams would sway the outcome, because I've seen them work from up to 200 meters. Snipers could blind the tanks and allow the infantry to close. But he has bought neither of those.

Message from Matteponk:

"The plan called for my PzIV(70)s to take care of his T34/85s. Couldn't imagine he'd buy two companies of them though. Have counted 16 so far. Could use another platoon of TDs. My green PzIVs are now being used in a role they were not indended to fulfil, dueling against the veteran russian armor. Will have to rely on my volksgrenadiers and their Panzerfausts. After they have had a chance to catch their breath, that is. Hopefully the russian infantry and tanks will eventually run out of ammo and be overrun by my brave volksgrenadiers. Desperate speculations?"

Hitler is enraged. "Not one step back, Matteponk!" he shouts...
