Eastern Front Battle - Sunday, 18 July at 2 PM
The battle this past Sunday pitted the German forces (Kevin, Guy, Chris D. and Fred) against the Russians forces (Eli, Adam, Charles and Dale) and involved a night meeting engagement at Mogilev. It opened at 2:30 PM, with the Russians launching an attack in mass and the Germans found themselves immediately under the "heavy guns". In the resulting action, the "Huns" found themselves the recipients of both accurate and deadly artillery and heavy tank fire. Unable to move, due to limited visibility, the 2nd SS Panzer Division's tanks were soon knocked out of action and the right wing collapsed under continued Red attacks. On the left, German tanks (Guy) managed to put up a valiant fight but with the center (Kevin and Chris) penetrated and sustaining heavy loses, the Germans forces were forced to concede the battlefield to the Soviet forces. It was a great battle and gave some new fellas a chance to "prove their mettle" and all had a great time.
The next regular Flames of War game will be a Western Front battle and will commence at 1400 hours, on 8 August at Treefort Games. So, all you Yanks out there will again have a chance to tangle with the Huns once again "somewhere" in France. Keep checking back for more updates.
The Defense of Whiskey Outpost - Saturday, 17 July at 2 PM
On the "Bug War Front", four staunch and courageous LMI Squads garrisoned Alpha Outpost and prepared themselves to test the determination of the Arachnid swarms this past Saturday. They didn't have to wait long. Wave upon wave of vicious (and hungry) Bugs thundered toward the isolated garrison and were pounded mercilessly by the valiant troopers from within the compound. Yet they still came.....
Warrior Bugs dropped in mass, as well as two Tank Bugs, and scores of Hoppers under the accurate fire from the LMI troops. Yet they still came....and came....and came! Crashing into the Force Field Fence, many more frenzied Warriors perished and yet the assault never faltered. Pushing aside and climbing over the broken and mangled bodies of their fallen kindred, furious Warriors and Blaster Bugs finally overran the compound and only one surviving trooper was rescued from atop the compound roof. Well over a hundred Bugs perished and the cost to the LMI defenders was about 39 troopers slain.
Military Operations (Phase II of Grand Slam) will commence at 1400, next Saturday, 24 July at Treefort. A "search and destroy" mission will be initiated in an attempt to seal the exit holes around the Outpost Alpha and to capture a Brain Bug that is suspected of having guided the attack this last Saturday. Military forces, which have been mobilizing for the last two weeks, are confident in the success of this mission, however, the Bugs are not stupid. To be sure, a determined and ferocious Arachnid force will surely be on hand to contest every inch of ground gained by the Mobile Infantry. Would you like to know more? Click on the link below...
