Mid War US tanks vs Canadian Tanks in Hasty Attack

Shermans ready to advance!

Today at Gamezilla, I played a second game, this time against Mark.  The armies were mid war.  For the US, I had a tank company (Confident Trained):
OC and 2IC in Stuarts

Stuart Platoon (4 tanks)
Sherman Platoon (4 tanks)

Armored Rifle Platoon (2 bazookas)
Recon Platoon (2 sections in jeeps, HQ and bazooka in halftrack)
M10 TD Platoon

105mm Howitzer Platoon

The Canadians had a tank company (Confident Trained):

2 x Sherman III platoons (3 x Shermans each)

2 x Recon Platoons (in Bren carriers, British, and confident vets)

And I think that was it....

Set Up

The Canadians rolled off, and won the ability to attack.  The defender (me) has to hold two objectives, both on the left.  One near, one mid.  The objective I placed is on the far, left, on top of that hill.

US 7th Armored Division vs Finn Infantry in Breakthrough

A future tank ace draws first blood!

Game 1 of the tournament Games of Remembrance (1800 LW) was against Nick and his Finn infantry.  This was going to be round two for us playing almost the same armies (now 1800 vs 1650) and the exact same mission.  The big difference was I had a secret weapon my son Xander and his kid luck.

Games of Remembrance 14

Western Europe

Games of Rememberance was a 1800 LW tournament held at the Fredericton Gamezilla as both a chance to get together and roll some dice but more importantly as a chance to remember those that have fought for our freedoms.  One of the other player Nick mentioned that FoW is a great way to remember the men and women, equipment and battles from the Second World War. I couldn't agree more, I hope you enjoy to armies and battlefield shots. I have 3 battle reports coming.
