Thoroughly enjoyable game to follow and your bazooka team faired similarly to Densmol's Panzerschreck team in my own recent game. Evil buggers - shame my Canadian PIAT team has half the range of those two; I honestly can't see it having as much success on the battlefield.Daihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04978439841611727387noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3812504077956599309.post-26214019384008805732023-03-21T22:34:41.232+00:002023-03-21T22:34:41.232+00:00These fights in Sicily are truly gorgeous to look ...These fights in Sicily are truly gorgeous to look at, and lots of fun, thanks for sharing!<br /><br />V/R,<br />JackJust Jackhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03552962741823929433noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3812504077956599309.post-2190179189310189922023-03-21T12:03:00.852+00:002023-03-21T12:03:00.852+00:00Nice work on the artillery and the games look good...Nice work on the artillery and the games look good too.(Kym) + Warburton + (Classic40K) https://www.blogger.com/profile/17333928965917754588noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3812504077956599309.post-31470846773165316782023-03-21T11:00:34.583+00:002023-03-21T11:00:34.583+00:00No worries I could have given you a different resp...No worries I could have given you a different response ๐Matt Crumphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06841790422716738842noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3812504077956599309.post-21165154387862724952023-03-21T11:00:11.225+00:002023-03-21T11:00:11.225+00:00Thanks Keith, indeed whilst the Germans held on, t...Thanks Keith, indeed whilst the Germans held on, they had pretty much lost 4 of their 5 infantry teams and both tanks.
