Last nights WW2 game.

Myself & Glenn indulged in a little bit off "Rapid Fire" last night.
Fighting over the control of a bridge somewhere in France.
The Scenario.
French Partizans destroyed the German company holding the bridge and awaited the approaching British force.
The Bridge must be intact and held.
German re-inforcements are on the way with orders to destroy the bridge and stop any attempted Allied crossing of the river.

British Force consisted of.
1 x Bttn of Infantry with  A/T supports in halftracks and carriers.
Mg Support Company.
2 x Medium tank squadrons, (Firefly and 2 Cromwells) & Firefly HQ.
1 x Bridging tank.
1 x Field artillery battery with Sherman OP, ( 2 x Sextons)
&
1 x Groups of Partizans.

German force consisted of.
1 x Armoured Infantry Bttn (Hanomags)
2 x Engineers Companies.

2 x Stugs.
1 x Panther (HQ)
1 x Artillery battery (2 x 105mm) with OP in Staff car.
1 x Pak 40 A/T.

In a very hard fought game, by nightfall, the bridge was intact and still in British hands.
The German engineers having failed to destroy the bridge.
Well done Glenn, a deserved victory after all went wrong at the start, lol.
A few pics of the game....
