I was sure that our Panzer Mk IV would be toast within a turn or two given that it was facing 3 Shermans, one of which was Firefly, but the dice did not favour the Allied armour.FrederickChttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06105186844570428983noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7369363918074860264.post-66184853524981164942009-04-25T02:34:00.000-05:002009-04-25T02:34:00.000-05:00You know, Greg has a point there...

But technically, Cam's infantry DID break through the German lines (despite my atrocious armoured "support").
