Cleared the west side of the channel and the northeast. They broght the house on the Libesey Woods exit VL. Hammering the position with their Cromwell while charging vehicles and rifle teams in attempts to regain the exit VL.
They failed to secure their escape and are now forced to suffer their fate in Caen.
Result:
-----------------
Our 192nd fighting armor BG in Lingevres.
Every bit of my stacked AT in the south couldn't get a shot up.
An M10 and a Crom rolled up. German ATG, Stug, Schrek team and Marder go to pieces with plenty of time on the clock. I pulled a Stug from my assault in the north in last 3 mins to cover the enemy squads and runaway armor breaking up the middle from getting too deep. It was a tense fight.
They had ATG's everywhere. We're deploying without a lot of cover for advance. They were bent on routing us, bringing a horde of troops rushing in in the final minute. The enemy assault was repelled and we got some room to breath.
Their last tank goes up in smoke.
Result
----------------------
Caen
They switched out BG's in Caen and now attack in with their 5/6 Para.
Their 2cm flak guns covered their assault accross the bridge nicely. I killed as many of them as I could before they finally got accross and cleared some ground.
Result
-------------------------------
Lingevres
Going up against their 22nd. They've no shortage of M10's, Cromwells and rifle teams in this BG.
I primarily covered the center and south, leaving one team recon for the north where Anzac concentrated their infantry advance to grab some points.
They pushed in the south as well but couldn't break through.
I'm not too jolly with the result, though we're clear for a strong defense in the final round.
Ever closer to Panzertruppen victory!
1 round left in this war. Let's bring it home soldats!
I wanted to go for the route, but didn't think it would happen.
I selected three MG teams, a Zug and an MG halftrack to cover all the open ground on the right side of the map while I put everything everything except the Pzt Chicken on the left.
The quiet lasted about 5 seconds when Stumpy opened up with some sort of Gun, I hit it with as many teams as I could and then stormed the building. This is where the tale of our heroes begins.
PzGrenandier team named "Panertruppen Heroes 1"
I got held up assaulting the right hand side of this road by a Vickers, so I went past it on the right. our Heroes leading the way.
Thinge were getting hectic by this stage, but by flanking Stumpy he had to draw men away from the right to cover my advance, but I was able to cut them down as he moved them about.
I wasn't able to get any more screens until things calmed down a bit. I killed all the Paras on the right side of the river, and was going hell for leather at the remaining VL's.
Time was running short, and our Heroes were getting tired, I managed to pick up another VL and made a dash for the last one. Stumpy almost seemed paralysed to stop them.
The boys limped on after a marathon effort and I thought they wouldn't make it. But when the clock reached 00:00 it was a German owned VL.
A ROUTE!
Here are the boys responsible for this awesome battle.
Great fight ANZAC.
Der Panzertruppen had a great time from start to finish. It was our pleasure fighting such an honorable clan. Such a close fight. Both sides going at eachother every bit of the way until Pzt finally broke the Anzac line in the final hours. A great war.
