It is hard to believe that more than two months has passed since my last post. I had just started back into my Barbarossa battle, a German attack near Przemysl, when a bunch of stuff came up for work, and I had to do a lot of travelling, which kind of threw everything in life into chaos again.
I finally got back to the battle the weekend before Thanksgiving, and had time to really get back into the game for several hours, playing roughly 40 turns, reaching the tipping point in the battle as I ran out of time.
This weekend, I got to finish the battle, with the Germans finally destroying Soviet resistence.
The Soviets again took a beating from German artillery, though did inflict notable casualties on the German recce forces and an infantry company. A company of Stug IIIs made it into the battle, the first time in the campaign that we have seen any real armor elements, though they did little more than mop up a Soviet 76mm gun unit that had already been ravaged by German artillery.
I'm working on a full after action report now, and expect to post it by next weekend. After which I think I will finally be able to get back to some regular gaming.
Stay safe out there, and I hope you have a great holiday season.
Nice to see you back again and I'll look forward to the ful report.
