Another outstanding AAR.
Love your write up.
Thanks for sharing.

As the previous mission was a draw we rolled off and the Republicans seized the initiative.

Cowards that they are, rather than attack the Nationalists they instead built barricades.

On Thursday, the Moroccans will be unleashed again at the village of Gran Salchichas.

[flicks fingers under chin]

A good Commander knows when to attack and when to sit on his backside ... smokin' ... a ... fag.

Leading Green troops into the open on a Probe mission is suicide even with the extra Support options.

So, you will have to taunt me a 2nd time notwithstanding that my father smelt of elderberries ... [look it up non-Python fans]

You're going to have to dig me out of this 'ere village at the point of a bayonet* rather than rely on the Panzer 1 crutch to do all the work knowing i can't scratch it

How's that for a riposte!?

Salud!

* which, i might remind you, your Moros ran away from last time [counter-attack led by Durutti personally]

So the gauntlets have been thrown by the both sides!

Eagerly awaiting for the next battle and AAR you chaps will entertain us with!

NEWSFLASH!!

One solitary Section of brave Asaltos holds off entire Tabor of Regulares in action after action notwithstanding Fascist tank support.

THAT IS ALL

Gotta love those Asaltos. Your public need more information!!!

As that Panzer 1 had been "Molotoved" and abandoned by the Nationalists in our last game ,and the Village defences held/strengthened, i think that there is a very good argument that it is now lost as a Support Option.

What say you fellas?

Should Scrivs be allowed to attempt to take the Village with yet more Tank support? Oh i dare say that the Bilbao will make an appearance but even so.

....the loss of foreign armour by a Nationalist force would have to be frowned upon by a platoon commander's superiors...I doubt they would give him another one to lose lest Herr Hitler gets word of it...

....no more Pz1 I say...Viva Espana!!

.....I hope we see a propaganda picture with the milicianos standing all over and around the fascist beast!

..sorry Scrivs

x2 what he said!

Unless of course, he has more Pz1s to wield on the field of battle

Maybe the Nationalist leadership is strongly against it, but their German allies want to redeem the loss of their honour in the previous encounter and thus they send yet another steel "behemoth" to the battle.

I hope the wreck of the burned tank will feature as a object in the next game... or at least, feature as a... errmm.... feature

..I like it...objective...re capture the Pz 1 before the world press takes a snap and La Pasionaria blurts it out over Radio Sevilla confirming the weakness of Krupp steel against the men of the Iron Column!

There are lies, damned lies, statistics and AAR's

Ohh, i like the idea of a scrap over the Panzer 1 ...

We can use it as one of your jump-off points - however you cannot use a Chain of Command dice to move it.

I feel a trap coming on, you devious Nationalist you ...

I think it should be a "special" jump off point placed in an area of my choosing as my troops control the village (i will forgo one of the usual Jump Off points after the Patrol Phase). Agree that it cannot be moved.

That or replicate the layout of our last game, including the location of the PzR1, and treat the tank as an objective.

Your move Scrivs.
