| The board. The mission is Dust Up. |
 |
| Steven's Armored Rifles |
 |
| Jon's Armored Panzergrenadiers |
 |
| Jon starts with 1 PzG platoon, Marders, and his 8-rads on the board. |
 |
| I start with 1 ARP, Shermans, M10s |
 |
| Jon's infantry hold the church with his halftracks parked on the road. |
 |
| Jon's recon move to shut down my TD security section |
 |
| Shermans threaten 8-rads |
 |
| Planes take out a single halftrack |
 |
 |
| M10s security section hides in the area where Jon's reserves will arrive |
 |
| While Shermans take up defensive positions as well. |
 |
| Jon's recon pushes into my flank |
 |
| Jon's defensive position. Halftracks move forward for fire support. |
 |
| reserves arrive! |
 |
| But Jon repels the assault. Bummer. |
 |
| Jon's reserves arrive! |
 |
| A lone marder takes a pot shot |
 |
| And nails a Sherman |
 |
| Halftracks pour the fire on the US ARs as Mortars arrive to reinforce the position. |
 |
| The Armored Rifles dig in and weather the storm |
 |
| Panzer IIIs arrive from reserve! |
 |
| And stormtrooper into cover. |
 |
| M10s spring their ambush |
 |
| Nailing 2 Panzer IIIs and bailing a 3rd. |
 |
| Nebelwerfers arrive from reserve |
 |
| And are immediately harassed by planes! |
 |
| Panzer IIIs fall to combined fire from M10s and Shermans |
 |
| 1 Nebelwerfer goes down |
 |
| Jon's pak 36 nails an M10! |
 |
| Ouch! |
 |
| This is looking tough for the US to break out of. |
 |
| Jon's 8 rads in the rear area |
 |
| As the game is clearly a draw, I roll out with everything hoping my .50 cals can A) run the PzG halftracks and B) bail/destroy the 2 active marders giving me a chance to assault the objective. But it's not to be. We call the game a draw. I lost no Platoons while Jon lost his Panzer IIIs. 2-1 draw. |
