WWII 1939 - September Blitzkrieg in Poland

A strong force of Panzers, along with German infantry supported by 10.5cm batteries and a flight of Stuka ground attack aircraft, battered their way through stubborn Polish defences to claim a victory with typical Teutonic efficiency and ruthlessness.

The real heroes of the battle, however, were a detachment of Polish Bofors A/T guns which managed to KO three Panzers, including a Pz.III. Likewise, a Polish rifle company disabled 2 German A/T guns that had exposed themselves in an overly aggressive and foolhardy move.

Rules used were Rapid Fire Reloaded which work well, although the interaction between tanks and infantry feels a bit 'off' sometimes.

Figures and vehicles are nearly all from 'First to Fight' in 20mm scale. This is a Polish manufacturer who produce a comprehensive range for this campaign. Well worth checking out : First To Fight WrzesieĊ„ 1939 - Sklep Modelarski They also available through the normal distributers.
