It was time to play the 4 and 5 battles for the Campaign.

The match up were Jeff Young (Canadians) vs Serge Carignan (Soviets/East Germans) for battle 5

and Francis and Mike (Canadians, French) vs Duncan A (Soviets/Poles) for battle 3.

Mike has already posted his battle report.

Unfortunately I did not take too many pictures.

The following was the terrain.

The following picture is the start. The Canadians had 40% off and choose to put 3 platoons of Leopards in reserves with a platoon of Lynx. The remainder of the force is hiding behind the hill and in the woods. They have 6 ADATS in ambush.

The Soviets complete a spearhead move and put one platoon of T72s and 2 platoons of T55s in the spearhead.

This picture was taken at end of first turn. The Canadians moved thier Leopard from behind the hill and took out five out of six T64s. (Bottom Right) The Arty sent a mine field on the T 72s.

The following picture was at the end of turn 3.

The Leopard came on from reserve in the next turn and took out all T55s but 2.

The Canadians lost one ADATS, and one TOW platoon.

The Soviets/West Germans lost all tanks. 22 of them.

The was a decisive Canadian win.
