Re: Dynamic Campaign: Volunteers Wanted
The Russian attack was beaten back, but at a heavy price. At the end of the battle, the Company was driven back into the village. ONly one StuG remained operational, three having been destroyed and the rest being to damaged to fight on.
However, int he end the Russians were not able to press home the final attack: Marginal victory!
As support I had a 10.5cm battery, which proved decisive in holding back the waves of infantry, as well as an allied infantry company, which was bombed heavily at the start of the battle and only played a minor role. 2 88mm guns were also attached, but one got bombed quite early, while the other was retreated into the village.
The three dead stug crews as well as a veteran snipers will be hard to replace.
