Overview:

A rupture in the Polish lines enabled elements of the German 10th Army to race to the outskirts of Warsaw on 7 September. However, attacks on the city petered out and Panzer-Division 4 was recalled westward to deal with the Bzura counterattack. When German attacks resumed on 15 September, they came this time from the north and were executed by units of the 3rd Army.
Attacker: German (Infanterie-Division 217)

2024-03-02(A) David Ramsey vs Michael SheaD German winThis one is two nice scenarios combined into one but each suffers from the presence of the other. It’s a lot to get your head around - a large map and what looks like an impossible task to take the stone multi hex buildings is balanced with an opportunity to exit VP instead.

I lost both tanks but survived the oba to exit enough guys.
2023-03-12(A) Shane Pask vs German winI thought there were too many buildings to capture in the time available so as soon as one resisted, I bypassed it and ran for the exits. Needed all seven turns but finally exited 45 VP. Both panzers made it off with malfunctioned guns - one malfed its guns on its first shot so rather than risk recall, I just drove it off.
2020-07-09(D) Jeff Wright vs Wayne Saunders German win
2020-06-20(A) Alberto González Ramírez vs Jake Polish winHorrible setup by my side and good deployment of forces by Jake.
This a big map with few forces to cover.
2018-04-19(D) Jeff B vs Pierce Mason Polish win3.5 hrsA devastating Turn 3 saw an early German concession. They lost one of their two tanks to a gun, and a 9-1 directed kill stack crumpled and fell to Polish HMG fire. The Poles had set up primarily out of LOS, as the Germans have a lot of firepower, but with an eye on directing fire at key approach points. This led to a fairly methodical German advance. Concealment was maintained as much as possible by the Poles to limit the effectiveness of German OBA. I thought I had made a mistake by actually going on the attack during my Turn 2 and bungling 2 CCs, but the aforementioned momentum quickly shifted back leading to a Polish victory. This one seems quite tough for the Germans.
