450 pt Soviet Infantry vs Finn Infantry


COMRADE MESSERLE'S GUARDS RIFLES
  • HQ
  • 1st Company w/ 1 platoon upgraded to Rifle/MG. Add HMG & Komissar. Battalion HQ.
  • 2nd Company lead by Comrade MacLauchlanov. 1 platoon upgraded to SMG. Add Komissar. Battalion 2iC and Komissar.

SEANI TORNI'S FINN INFANTRY
  • HQ
  • Jalkavaaki Platoon (Rifle/MG)
  • Jakaari Platoon (Rifle)

This was the first battle of our ad hoc Infantry Aces Campaign in the Eastern Front. It will become more organized moving forward, and no one has yet achieved ace status to get their first abilities. The board was 4'x4', 450 points/side. In true communist fashion, Joe and I shared duties of soviet command, while Sean lead the Finns. The mission was No Retreat with the soviets on the attack.
