Overview:
Ill-equipped, undermanned and lacking any anti-tank artillery, the Polish defenders relied mostly on improvised anti-tank means such as bottles of gasoline or turpentine, small arms fire, and anti-tank obstacles. On 20 September, the tanks of the Soviet 27th Light Tank Brigade of the 15th Tank Corps reached the city's outskirts. Although both numerically and technically superior, the Soviet forces lacked infantry support and oil, which stopped many tanks. Also, the tank crews had no experience in urban warfare, which was a significant help for the defenders. The Soviets tried to seize the city from the south through the bridge over the Niemen River.Attacker: Russian (27th Light Tank Brigade, 15th Tank Corps)
Defender: Polish (KOP Brigade Grodno and 101st Reserve Cavalry Regiment and Patriotic Volunteers)

2025-04-05 | (A) Jobbo Fett | vs | JobboFett | Polish win | A strong push by the Russians on the right flank, coupled with tanks locking down threats wherever possible started off well enough until the Russian assault attempting to cross an open street only for several Green squads to far outperform their qualities, breaking and killing several squads, threatening an early end to the scenario. Thankfully, the pressure from the tanks was enough to force the Poles back. The Commissar did his job admirably, and an eventual push into the eastern victory building, while extremely lucky, was not able to prevent getting locked into Melee on the last Polish turn, sealing their fate. A close scenario; the Russians seem to need the balance. | ||
2025-02-23 | (D) Jason Wert | vs | Gabe Wert | Russian win | Played with the Russian balance and was fantastic, came down to last turn with multiple CCs and the Russians getting a low odds CC win to clinch it. | ||

2023-03-17 | (A) Shane Pask | vs | Polish win | Pet peev: and/or - Are the VC and or or? In this scenario, the distinction is a big deal. Surely if only one building is required "or" is sufficient even if both are occupied. If both are required, "or" is not applicable. Made a mistake early by entering CC with Russians - Poles did not need to win, just delay the Russians and they did. Commissar and 2 squads entered city hall on turn 4 but the Poles had prepared a welcome party. Russians broke all Poles except one squad and a hero. Poles gambled on CC (squad was green) attacking one squad and the commissar at 1:1. Rolled a 3 to kill them and Russians had nothing left. One BT5 malfed both CMG and MA (CMG disabled). |
