One thought on “Scn 20 Panzer -Wrap up and quick impressions”
Well stated Kev. I embarked on The Rhino’s of Vitebsk last night using your thoughts on variable activations. Not much to report so far beyond that the Russian decision to come onto the board in two columns has caused the German to have to re-think his garrison’s deployment and will have to shift his forces, allowing the Russians to close with the town relatively unscathed before the German reinforcements get deployed and engaged.
In an earlier set up of the game, I entered the Russians in a single column and were engaged by a forward deployed 75mm ATG on a hilltop improved position overlooking the river crossing. This slowed them enough to have the German lead reinforcement elements to get on board and exchange long range fire with the lend-lease Shermans.
