My gracious mentor playing the Germans clobbered me this afternoon as I was unable to do more than serve as a Soviet road bump on Map 5. While the initial Russian setup denied easy moment to the Germans on the west edge and the high speed avenue of approach along the map's central road, the Nazi hordes proceeded to mount a determined right hook, masking attack on the main Russian overwatch position atop the hill. Both sides lost only two steps in combat as the Germans swung around the Russian position in a fast moving torrent after eliminating the Soviet 76.2 mm AT gun on the eastern edge of the hilltop. This re-enactment of the undiluted Schlieffen Plan easily achieved their victory conditions and the Russians were barely able to slow down the German Motorcycle infantry Company in spite of mounting a makeshift hilltop assault.
