Active Armor Goodwood

 

I've got the English forces moving on the table 
moving in on both flanks 

using smoke for cover, Though the screaming Mimi's hurt my armor then my air strike fails to hurt the German armor and artillery also fails to hurt the panthers. 

The Panthers are after me  
The attack on the town begins
The Duke of Cornwall infantry assault the panzers and make it in! 
BOOM... the Nebelwerfers have been hit
A major Scrum is developing in the town 
A scrum that build and builds... 
Recon overruns  the Nebelwerfers 
The brutal battle for village 
a pincer movement on the hill 
The Panthers break the Duke of Cornwall light infantry and move to relive the village 
Charge!!! we attack the guns! 
2nd Wiltshire storm into the town! Breaking the 3rd Panzer Grenadiers. 
9th royal Tank Battalion move into engage the Panthers
The German infantry has been killed to a man. 
British armor and infantry close on the Panthers! Securing victory as with have town and the surrounding  hills.   Its a good night when you get to destroy most of an SS division.

Active Armor Operation Kutuzov

 I am leading a soviet attack in the Wake of Citadel looking to break a critical rail line. 

German defenses are formidable. 

My men Storm onto the table
Fighting quickly becomes general 
The Elite German forces soak up hit after hit as if I wasn't there... 
The train rubbles on! 
We finally smash the 88 unit and there was much rejoicing 
Partisans attack... 
The Airstrike disorders the train... but the Partisans are mowed down
Three infantry units swarm the 1st Panzer and finally kill it! 
The tanks finally break through to the south... 

Ura Ura! Soviet Infantry storms out of the woods and strike at the trail.

STUGS move into support the train 
Pig Pile on the train! but the train get away, making a German victory thought a pyrrhic one.

Active Armor Lower Dnieper 1943

 

My Soviet roll forward looking for a German supply depot 
The Germans get first Blood disordering two of my units. 

Armored units clash  

and soviet infantry charges.
Combat around the village intensifies. 

And Soviets Chard again.. 
and again... taking losses as we come in. 
Recon moves into the continuing melee with the 88s. 
My Guards armor are destroyed after a desperate fight
Fighting rages on the left flank. 
We take the 88 by storm our first successful attack 
the left my troops are struggling. The Germans seem to be getting all the good "rolls" (its a computer moderated game)
Still my me manage to blow up the depot. Good Luck in the last turn makes up for bad luck in the rest of the game.
