Overview:

On 4 July a Russian offensive cut off Grenadier-Regiment 437. A kampfgruppe lead by Lieutenant Bidermann fell back and soon only a small village stood between them and friendly lines. The seemingly deserted settlement hid Russian infantry backed by two old T-26 tanks. With Landsers out of Panzerfäuste and their only support being two light FlaK halftracks, the obsolete T-26s might well put an end to Bidermann's escape.
Attacker: German (Panzerjaeger-Abteilung 132 and I Battalion, Grenadier-Regiment 437, 132. Infanterie-Division)
Defender: Russian (103rd Rifle Corps, 6th Guards Army, 1st Baltic Front)

Russians collapsed very quickly. One T26S was immobilized by a lucky SdKfz shot. The other malf'd it's MA, then was stunned for 2 player turns by another super lucky SdKfz shot, then permanently disabled it's MA trying to repair and was recalled. MMG malf'd just when it was most needed. 8-1 leader CR on a routine MC and then failed WC...poof...gone. Game was over on turn 3. Wouldn't say it was the most fun ASL game I've ever played. Just utterly gutted by dice. Sometimes it feels like neither side should put any thought or effort into setups or tactics with small scenarios. Just yolo and hope you get the favor of the dice gods because that's the side that will probably come out on top. :-/
