GAVRUS 1600-1700 comments

Lots of action. I've made a point of being more aggressive. Running risks I'd normally not dare to run.

The results are interesting. By pushing in large numbers you can usual get a decision in a area, even though losses might seem high. It is probably better to have high losses and achieve something than have low losses and achieve nothing much, but it's case by case.

At first the British didn't get any heroes, but now there are two manning an ATG and causing enormous trouble. The artillery zeroed in on the orchard is also devastating. Lots of POWs this time too.

More comments later.

A huge artillery mission landed, but did little damage in the end. The heroes were KIA in 0m range fire and the Germans have managed to get themselves organised a bit, though a 2" mortar caused a squad to disappear and a lot of other troops to surrender, though they are not in danger of capture.

Surprising - when I saw the map covered in shell bursts I thought that would be that - but they got away with it.
