3 Days in Livrey
Afternoon of day 2, and Day 3
Red secures the field and advances towards german supply lines.

The afternoon of day 2 sees another allied assault on Edmont's Field.
German FH16 fires on allied positons but once again is no match for allied armor.
Wruff charges the north accross the ditch towards allied supply lines.


...and gets cozy with the RAF.




PAK Track takes position at the Ditch


A Stuart makes a break for it, but gets caught firing downrange by the German softshell




The Stuart makes quick work of the sf.

Once again it's left up to german infantry to deal with the allied tank force.



The south, the allies continue their march towards the germans last line of defense. Taking out another AC and forcing a german retreat to the church and off of their supply route.

Day 3 will decide wether or not the germans can hold and push back the allied advance.
Some very close combat certainly awaits both sides in the morning.
The order is given to assault the tank.
1 shot with a faust is fired, leaving a crater underneath the Stuart, but the tank returns a lethal curtain of fire. The squad doesn't stand a chance.
The silence of the morning air is broken when an allied tank is spotted advancing on the Church from the treeline.

Gerry ATG takes out the tank, but a Stuart follows through and leads the charge through the graveyard into the church.

Then
Red brings the house and the bodies pile up.
Wruffs infantry charges the Stuart and pay a heavy price for their desperate act, as their brothers did before them.
OH, THE HORROR!

Another german sf makes the mistake of being spotted. A couple of light mortars take care of him.

Wruff makes a move on Edmonts Field. Supported (cough) by another 10.5cm sf.

Allied airstrike.
A sure thing against sf's.
Once again, german infantry is left to fight without big guns. Pushing on and taking the field.

Red closes in on the Hotel and Cafe.


Allied infantry move to secure the Hotel.


Grenades fly and the bodies pile up...

But gerry holds the line.
A Stuart moves around to charge the Cafe.

Cafe.
Grenadiers charge the tank
from the Cafe in a desperate act of last defense.

Allied Victory!
