Sorry, Chat Noir, we didn't wait for you to announce our "play date" ...
The results are in : Greg and I fought two very tense battles! The heat of war came down on Viipuri. The Russians tried hard to take the cities, but the White Death was able to twarth these plans.
In the first battle my skitroops had brought their best ammo and rather quickly the scores were 4-1 in my favour. Rolling 70% against infantry really helps a lot! (Sorry, Greg) But then my offensive power had diminished due to weak cards (3 recons, artillery bombard ...) And I had to use both Air Power and Barrage to eliminate that single tank that had gotten to safety on its baseline. With another stroke of luck I was able to grab my final medal, just before Greg would storm (and probably take) the weak defenders in Viipuri.
In the second battle I tried to push through on my left flank. It might have worked ... but I rolled just enough flags to allow Greg to pull some single fig units out of harms way. At one time there were 7 single fig units on the battlefield (4 on Greg's side and 3 on mine) Greg managed to shift some troops to support his right flank and actually effectively stopped my advance and even pushed me back to the baseline. Lucky for me, I was able to switch to my right flank and was lucky enough to destroy the defenders and take the town as medal 5 and 6. Me happy ... And I even got a slim chance at victory, but my (close) armoured assault rolled not a single hit on Greg's skitroops. Next turn, Greg (easily) took his final medal.
Thanks, Greg, for two hours of great fun! Good luck with the rest of the tournament!
