Intel blackout!

I am distressed to report that I do not have a map update at this time. I am aware of the fact that the Germans won a battle and claimed some territory, however, the photos I snapped detailing where seem to have been stolen by partisans. (Yes, I saw the map when I shot the photo, and Yes, I have forgotten what I was looking at!)
Any details anyone can provide, please do!

Turn 4!

The Allies advance onwards towards the final showdown at the bridges. During the strategic moves, the Typhoons pounced on the slow moving Tigers bound for the front from Apeldorn, causing considerable havoc resulting in their delay for a turn. Elsewhere, more supplies were dropped as the Axis fighters decided to throw their limited air resources into the tactical pot.

Groesbeek Heights defended!

Only one battle took place this past week. One allied player, diehard Keith, against JP and JR. An intercepted Allied radio message sent in the clear reads as follows:

"Held Groesbeek last night(6-1) in a battle of crazy dice.  There were stupidly bad rolls (my artillery failed to range in on a 4 with 5 attempts) and some stupidly good rolls (my Shermans hit with 10 out of 12 mg shots on a 4, with Jason failing 7 of the 10 saves by rolling 5 1's and 2 2's to wipe out the platoon contesting the objective).

The Security firestorm troop was destroyed and the 2 88's retreated north.  The allied firestorm troops held their ground in Groesbeek."

 

Strategically, the Allies succeeded in interdicting the Tigers that were sent to the front with a swarm of Typhoons, but the Axis did gain a Panther and a few stragglers from earlier losses.

A map will be posted later in the week. In the meantime, have a Great 4th!
