Sarge and I played a 5.5 turn SS v Russian scenario this afternoon. I had the SS and believed this to be a lost cause at the end of my Turn 3. German needs to take 17 building locations in 5.5 turns. German has a very small force 11 squads vs 20 Russian squads. Leadership and support is effectively equal.
At the end of Turn 3 I had 5 broken squads with only 1 building take. Rallied the troops and finally began to wither the Russian defenses. Pictures start with the end of German Turn 1 (12) and finishes off with the end of Game (prior to final German advance phase)
