Polish 21st light tank bn.vs Soviet Cavalry regiment AAR

[Anatoli]

I played my first Early War game in months earlier this week against David, we were both using lists from my September Campaign v.2 book. As I wanted to field test my R35 company we played a straight core rulebook scenario, since there are no historical scenarios revolving around the 21st Light Tank battalion in my book.

I ran the following list

R-35 tank company from the 21st Light Tank battalion

R-35 HQ tank
4 Platoons of 3 R-35 tanks each
1 Motorcycle reconnaissance platoon (2 sections)
1 Piechoty company: 3 platoons with AT rifles and HMG platoon
________
9 platoons, 1500 points


David ran the following list

Soviet Cavalry regiment

HQ
1 Platoon of mounted Soviet cavalry
1 Platoon of dismounted Soviet cavalry
1 Platoon of 4 BT-5
1 Platoon of 5 BA-10 armored cars
1 Platoon of 76mm infantry guns (3 guns)
1 Platoon of 45mm AT guns (2 guns)
1 Platoon of 76mm AT guns (3 guns + staff team)
1 Platoon of AA MG trucks (3 trucks)
1 Polikarpov air support with Rockets
_____
8 platoons, 1500 points


The scenario was "Fighting withdrawal", handpicked since it's one of the fun scenarios in the book. As the tank company I was the attacker and David was defending with his highly mobile cavalry/mechanized list.

Thanks for the AAR - I'm waiting to game this period with anticipation (a few more EW Soviet tanks to paint).
