Mike M's continue their advance towards the E20
A view from the NATO side of the table showing Mike M's Russians as they advance from cover to assault the E20
Meanwhile on Fyn Danish troops are still holding on despite increasing casualties
Some support for Nick G's beleaguered Danes in the shape of two RAF Harriers
The Harriers are needed as VDV reinforcements begin to push inland to support the Russian Naval forces
Russian Naval move into the cover of the woods as they continue their advance across Fyn (Great little crater terrain pieces by Neil M to show areas that have been under artillery fire)
Martin K's Russians begin their assault into Kolding against Mark W's Danish. The bus station was to see some heavy fighting on Day Two
Mark W's Danish troops desperately defend Kolding
East German air support attack British positions
Martin K's Russian move into the centre of Kolding
Mike M's Russians come under intense fire as they advance towards the E20 road junction
Russian AA units on the look out for NATO aircraft as in the distance Martin K's Russians continue their relentless assault on Kolding
More RAF Harriers try and stem the tide
Hinds prowl the sky in support of the Russian attacks
The HAWK Battery eventually falls to Russian Naval and VDV forces
Kolding falls to the Martin K's Russian MRR and cuts off the western end of the bridge stranding Nick G's on Fyn
By this point it was after 3.00pm on Sunday and after a quick overview of both tables we decided to call time on the weekend. So after two days gaming the Russians had made considerable progress towards their objectives. On the western edge of the main table the USMC were still in control of the airfield but they had taken heavy casualties from Gerard's Russians and if they weren't relieved soon they would break. Moving eastward Ian W's East Germans had cut the E20 and were beginning to outflank the US Airborne defending. Mike M's Russians were close to breaking through as were Stewart L's and at the eastern end of the table Martin K's Russian MRR had driven the Danish defenders from Kolding and held the western end of the bridge.
WARSAW PACT VICTORY - NATO will now have to retreat northwards and hope for further reinforcements if Denmark is to be held (Maybe we'll revisit this scenario again in the future?)
Next year we already have two events planned. See the homepage for details in the sidebar. If you are interesting in attending any of the events please get in touch. E-mail also in the sidebar.
Thanks to everyone who came along and made it a great weekends gaming. We had some new attendees this year which was great to see and they are already planning forces for next year.
Looking forward to 2026!
