29, Let's Go Campaign: Home Run at Osmanville

Despite the Germans having soundly trounced the US forces in the campaign we played through to the last scenario.

It's been a few weeks now, so my memories are dim, but here anyway are the pictures.

I took a mortar to help shoot in my forces. It was, as far as I recall pretty ineffective.

My boys were soon jumping off and taking up positions.

The Shermans were soon trundling toward the objective.

One along each approach road.

Providing encouragement for the infantry.

Who themselves were soon fanning out along the road.

However inevitably a German with a Panzerschreck popped up!

As did another, and my  Heavy Metal support was soon all ablaze!

Bravely the troops pressed on to assault the objective.

Whilst their fellows provided covering fire.

With the objective in US hands and German morale tumbling, Ballzimmer launched a desperate assault.

 

A fierce firefight broke out in the orchard.

Fortunately my troops weathered the storm and as the smoke cleared the last few Germans unfurled their white flags.

Another cracking game. Chain of Command is *hard* to play well and really makes you think. We've enjoyed the campaign, despite it being a comprehensive German victory (the last three games were played even though they had already won the campaign).

We're looking now at another PSC for 2025 - perhaps Old Hickory to give me a chance to see if I can do better with Americans on the defensive.
