As for the soviet antitank efforts in bolt action you have to hit the target first and thensee if you penetrate Stefanavich seemed to roll a lot of 1,s 😀 The Stug at this time in the rules only has HE and has a very low chance of knocking out a BT7 as you rightly point out. The german commander however seemed to roll a 6 ! We actually discussed at the time the unlikely event and made the assumption that the crew had left the top hatches open and the HE shell had by some chance exploded right above the tank killing the crew. It was a desparate and lucky hit from the Germans to stabilise their flank. Well spotted 😀Matt Crumphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06841790422716738842noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3812504077956599309.post-60130904775037698572017-10-14T09:05:43.347+01:002017-10-14T09:05:43.347+01:00Cheers Roy yes all of what you describe is planned...Cheers Roy yes all of what you describe is planned for the future 😀Matt Crumphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06841790422716738842noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3812504077956599309.post-28054229201613006732017-10-14T02:37:15.952+01:002017-10-14T02:37:15.952+01:00Excellent looking battle and a good AAR!

Champion work!<br />I've not played Bolt Action (I think that's the rules you said you use to play) but I was surprised by a couple of points; the Soviet 45mm gun had trouble penetrating the armour of the of these model Pz IIIs & IVs and also the STUG used HE to take out a BT 7 which isn't impossible with its lighter armour but I would have expected HEAT ammo to be used...remember I'm ignorant of these rules....Captain Darlinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10600207936774500844noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3812504077956599309.post-18221527454452099972017-10-13T16:43:01.942+01:002017-10-13T16:43:01.942+01:00Certainly looks good.
