The northern SS PzG regiment had a strength of less than a battalion by the end of the game and that was with about 1100 losses less than in your game.
I think one of the things that made an impact in this game was that I triggered the release of the security division. I sent a couple of T-70 companies around the northern flank and ran into the flak battery at 13,0. Filip was then able to use the (fresh) security regiment to secure his left flank. Otherwise, I think I could have encircled or forced him to abandon the 250 VP at 15,6. And my allowing him to isolate three btl. in the south didn't help either!
It was an enjoyable game. In fact, I have enjoyed these small scenarios more than I thought I would. However, by the time this tournament is over, I will be ready to get out of the snow!
