Last Practice for Kingston KUP FOW Tournament

Jim's Schutzen v. Chris' Indians:  Counterattack Mission

Chris is defending from the near quadrant.  Jim is attacking from the LH quadrant.
The first pic is a couple of moves into the game.  The 38T's had initially moved to the right between the hedged fields.  The Valentines moved out of the village to meet them to meet then the 38T's about turned & advanced on the near side.   The German infantry in the wood in the foreground had moved up behind the ridge & have killed most of the Indian defenders in a murderous assault.

The 38t's have been destroyed by a 2pdr ambush,  the Valentines are driving back the German left, but these successes mean nothing as the German infantry have taken the near objective while the German artillery smashing the village and supporting fire from their HMGs & Paks prevented any counterattack.
