Today we played a part of Italian campaing which took place beetwen small forces of American Rangers and German patrols and crews of batteries covering a bay near the Salerno itself. Scenario was provided by Karol and I took Germans and Olek took forces of USA. We played it as part of bigger campaing we played last Wendesday in Bolter, Wrocław, PL. So it was a night…

Hilly terrain with acht coma acht (famous flak 8,8 cm) AA guns batteries.
On the left Germans patrols, on right USA Rangers.
No one see each other.
Hans, hast du was gehört (Hans, have you heard something)?
Germans do not know that enemies are everywhere.
When first patrol dissapeard, another one came to look for them.
Single Karl stayed wounded till was too late.
Almost Fubar on coming out from bunker.
Morale on two sixes, feels like Fubar.
German officer started giving orders to his squads to save situation.
German medium machine gun tries to take position.
Germans advances.
Clearing area from Rangers.
Finally squad from bunker on left moved out, losing leader at the start.
Germans retaken one acht coma acht.
Americans took two of them…
…that will have influence on next game on Wendesday.
A down has come.

Summary:
– interesting game with objectives and many inexperienced units on German side with all veterans on the other side.
– thank you Karol for interesting scenario and Olek for game.
– today my strenght of will had been passed and my Confederates still don’t have cannon.

81 years ago German battleship Bismarck was sunk.
