Race for the Reichstag - 30.04.1945 / 06h00 in the morning

I painted, assembled and based the forces...
I built the terrain...

now the easiest part... playing the game.

Rules are RoE - Great Escape Games..

The Kônigslatz in 20mm

Finished ! At last

Deutsche Stellungen an der Königsplatz

Been stuckhome last week-end - was on duty - so took time to work on the german

"side" of the Königsplatz. Should add some stuff..

at least, they can start to feel "home"

Race for the Reichstag - Soviet forces

Reaching the third step our of five - step 4 will be the terrain in front of the Reichstag itself...

so here we go with the Soviet Support..

tanks first

then various support.. Mortars, MMG and the Red Flag Party..

Awaiting them are some of the last Panzers fielded into Sector Z...

and an MMG Team from the Anhalter Rgt..

THE OLD TOWN- 09-44

While german forces close from every side, it is time for the remaining Freedom Fighters to gather for a last defense..

Figs are Battlefields

Tram is Kerr and King

Floor S&S

Ivan Kommt.

As part of my long term project... Battle for the Reichstag, here is the infantry element of my Russian Army. will be made of :

One- 6 men command group

Six - 10 men Infantry squad

One - two men Sniper Team.

well stored and preserved forces..

to be continued with German and Russian Tanks and Support units..

Gepanzerte Maus

A new foe in my 20mm army..

the armoured Mouse..

nearly finished...

Been busy on the dome last week-end. final result is not as good as I wanted, but it's gonna be it.

Need now to concentrate on the entrance - really unsatisfied with columns - then shift to the Königsplatz ... enthusiastic project.... on top of the roof is a Soviet detachment in 20mm.. It's not the Red Banner Squad, this one is still in the "to-do" box...

Introduction to RoE..

the battle was supposed to be AAche, but it turned out as a usual Great Patriotic war skirmish..

Russian forces were two squads - one each - opposed to two german squads. we used the regular infantry rules, except the Opportunity Fire one. Russian victory....

esso il nemicco...
