Relax soldier, Paris has fallen. You deserve a rest!
British Commandos made it ashore under heavy German fire and seized the bunkers so elements of the 3rd Infantry Division could make it ashore.

Second battle of two IN BOLTER Wrocław 09.06.2019
After first wave made hole in German defenses, they needed to hold theyr position and secure exit point from beach. Rangers leads the way and they made the job done. They captured exit, but in return they were obj of heavy fire from infantry and German pz4. Time that veterans bought was enough for rest of first wave to catch up and destroy tank. Than second wave came and easily got throu beach to secure whole sector.

Using heavy air support, accurate mortars and some bold jeep action, the US airborne got hold of the hedgerows in this sector.

21st Panzer Division was ordered a counterattack on Normandy. The order was to make a strong breakthrough and push the Allies back to the see.
The game was 2v2 on 1200pts per Player.
Germans had: Sdkfz 223 Command Vehicle, Tiger 1 and two Panther tanks.
On Axis side was a suprising ally – Soviets: Two T34/85, two M3 Stuarts from LendLease, Katyusha, Su76, T34/76 and Ba-10.
The Allies had British: Churchill AVRE, Achilles, Cromwell, Sherman and Staghound.
US forces: Pershing, Chaffee, Calliope Sherman, Sherman Easy Eight, Hellcat.
The battle was fought over one objective in the middle of the table – the german artillery had to be secured.
The first turn was long as the forces had to think about positioning against the enemy. The first accurate shot was taken by Tiger that managed to Immobilize AVRE out of his shooting range and also locked the turret.
After a small victory came the second turn that was better for the allies. They managed to destroy the Katyusha that just arrived on the battlefield. Cromwell managed to destroy T34/85 with one shot. On the other side Panther hit the Pershing but only stunning the crew.
The third turn was hard for the Axis side. But they managed to get another penetration on Pershing immobilizing him this time.
While the right Axis flank was pushed by Quick and small M3 Stuarts supported by Panther, their left flank was pushed by the Allies Cromwell and Sherman supported by Achilles.
The fourth turn was successful for both sides: allies shot down the T34/76 and the Ba-10 running to the battlefield, while the Tiger eliminated Achilles. Therefore the domination on flanks was lowered and the situation became quite balanced.
In the fifth turn both sides started focusing on the scenario objective – capturing the point. While axis managed to destroy a Sherman on the left flank, they also went on a run with Recce M3 Stuart to capture the objective. But it was not fast enough to get there in this turn. Allies also moved their fast vehicle – Staghound and managed to destroy the M3 Stuart. The Hellcat managed to eliminate the Panther covering the right flank therefore destroying the domination the Axis had on this flank. The situation looked far better for the Allies – they had stronger both flanks and the Staghound close to the objective.
The sixth turn started with Staghound capturing the objective – he only needed to survive the game there! But T34/85 shot down the Staghound making it harder to win for the Allies.
In the turn seven Su76 was destroyed by the Allies. The Axis tried a Hail Merry by running Sdkfz223 in direction of the Objective. But waiting there for repairs was Pershing that got to shoot and destroyed the armored car riding in full speed.
The resolution was a minor Victory by the Allies – they didn’t capture the objective but destroyed more tanks then the Axis (8-4 if I remember correctly).

Canadian Vs German grenadiers while the Canadians moved in land from the beaches they took an AVRE with them to clear any hard points before the Sherman’s moved off the beach. We have the Canadian infantry flanking left and the Canadian AVRE and APC Flanking right. I the middle they had a mortar and rifle platoon. Directly opposite them came under MMG fire from the woods and took cover behind a brick wall. Germans opposite FUBAR’d and ran back towards their own lines, the AVRE and APC took heavy fire from a puma and infantry but no casualties. The left flank of the Canadians was taken with ease and the decided to hunker down behind some cover to await a counter attack. On the right flank of the Canadians they were. Beating back the Germans, the puma wanting to get a flank shot lurched out and missed, next the Canadian infantry jumper out of the transport and took some German prisoners and then set the puma on fire exploding the ammo rack blowing it up. Left and right flanks now secured the Germans deciding the done want to be Surrounded decide to run away to fire for another day resulting in a Canadian victory.

The British Paras held off the German force sent to reclaim Pegasus Bridge.
The German force made a good first push, driving the right flank of the brush paras back.
The right flank rallied itself and got back into the fight to stall the German advance.
The paras managed to keep the German force at bay long enough to be relieved by the supporting Commando force.

Another go at pegasus bridge, this time determined German forces made it passed the fortified house due to some reckless run orders but the British counter attack (several viscious assaults) swung the game, once the commandos turned up it was game over for the Germans. I personally blame the Ostruppen, they are now being sent to the eastern front.
