The map was made by Epoletov (who is a member of this club) and then I customised it by adding some features. I'll attach the map to this post as spmap500.

The Spitfire returned spotted the immobilised (confirmed) Panther on the north road and this time dropped two 250lb bombs. Doesn't look like he did any additional damage to the panzer, but their ears will be ringing for a while.
The other immobilised Panther, in the NE of the central town, was abandoned by all five crew! A PanzerGrenadier squad in a nearby building perhaps guarding the tank.
2nd Lt Picton's infantry platoon supported by Lt Wigg's tank attacked towards the Panther, routing the PanzerGrenadier section.
Lt Drake's infantry also moved into town, shooting up the Panther crew.
In the town streets a Flammpanzer III was spotted. Lt Swift's tanks and an armoured car engaged the Flammpanzer III but couldn't get a solid hit, until Lt Swift finally destroyed it himself at a range of about 150yds. No survivors escaped the burning wreck.
Just to the south of town, British infantry attempted to get close to a Panther but were spotted and machinegunned taking a few casualties.
Also south of town, other British infantry ran into some German infantry and took a few casualties before routing the Germans.
In the far north field (NE of the village on the stream) German Infantry and halftracks appeared in the west tree line and engaged British infantry in the south and east tree line. The Brits fought back with halftrack and Bren Gun Carrier MGs and even a tank. A hidden Brit 6 pounder ATk gun knocked out one of the halftracks but the battle over the northern field continues...
German mortar fire came down NE of the town and in the northern village. And 10.5cm field artillery is now supporting the German attack on the northern field.
