Gauntlet - Day 2 - Longstop hill

For the second days gaming the hills were re-configured into a version of Longstop hill and we played the November 42 attack in the morning and the successful April 43 attack in the afternoon.

The November attack set two allied platoons attacking a single German platoon occupying the hill


The rules were Bolt Action


The British wing struggling against the stubborn German defenders


The American move forward on the south


And breaking through the defenses


The the tide turned for the British as well


The German front line crumbles


However it's a Pyrrhic victory as the Allies done have enough strength left to resist the German counter attack


No pictures for the afternoon game except this one, where the North Irish Horse arrived with their Churchills to support the assault.
