Task Force Smith again - part 2

 

The mighty NKPA armoured column advances!

An intimidating sight from the TF's point of view.
A lucky artillery round soon found it's mark!
An overview of the whole sorry mess.  Note the NKPA infantry battalion at the end of the column.
Much unpleasantness as the first tanks cross the bridge

The photos are a bit out of synch - this shows the tank column.
Predictably, Russell's new JS-2 was the first tank model to die.
TF Smith's few bazookas and the RCL platoon were kept very busy.  Would the NKs prevail?

A tough assignment for the NKPA - wanting some arty, maybe? I like the sort of set up you use: simple, functional - and interesting.
Cheers,

That looks very grand. I recall play testing this scenario at the club. That huge column of tanks is very hard indeed for the US to stop.

Thanks - I like it to look OK but it's a game, not a diorama!

It was a fun game - and one which will stand replaying.

This time the column of tanks was even bigger!
