Germans vs US Airborne Battle Report


This is our second battle report.  This time we are playing a scenario.  We are doing point defence with the Germans defending fuel supplies against the Screaming Eagles.


The German army list for this game is...

Oberleutnant  with aide (both with MP40s)
Forward Artillery Observer with STG44
Sniper team (armed in this gave it would seem with a pot of coffee and some Bavarian strudel)
2 regular Panzergrenadier squads with LMG, SMG, 2 STG44s and NCO with MP40.  Oh and 2 panzerfausts
1 Regular Panther (unpainted sorry, but I have an excuse see below)
1 MMG team



My opponent had

First lieutenant with aide
Forward Air Observer
Medic
Sniper team
3 full squads of paratroopers with all the trimmings
1 inexperienced Sherman with pointless MMG 


This time we kept the cat (beelzebubbles) off the board to film it.


The game was very close, with lots of nail biting moments.  The orders system in bolt action really does lead to some cinematic moments.  I will do a review of my opinions of the game sometime during the week.



Enjoy.
