This was a really funny game with lots of laughs. I seem to remember the umpire putting his head in his hands at all the hand to hand combat going on. And i am in awe of the Centaur. It was devastating against infantry and pinned hell out of the panzer iv so much my Piat team couldn't get close to it to take a pop at it.   Brilliant game.
