Scenario pits elements of 22nd Panzer (John) against units of 26th Tank Corps (yours truly) in and around a fog bound village.
My initial force of foot sloggers supported by numerous T26 Tanks (truly abysmal piece of kit) and have just about gained a foothold on edge of village with several T34s now arriving.
Germans encountered thus far have comprised of infantry with Pz38t/PzII (?) support and a couple of Pak 36 which are easily a match for the T26 horrors which are manned by mostly green crews, so many Soviet AP hits have resulted in 'shell broken up' even at close range !!
The fog has both assisted and hampered in equal measure as able to advance unmolested but stumbling into unseen enemy and I expect heaver Hun kit will appear (PzIII or IV ?).
T34s wade through a sea of destroyed T26 minnows
Gosh, it is a loooong time since I played a PC wargame, the visuals are stunning!
