2024-12-27(A) Tuomo Lukkari vs Teemu Lukkari Russian win
2021-09-04(A) Richard Jenulis vs Brent Morris Russian winA turn three Human Wave got the Russians into the Nail Factory but at a cost in counters. It looked good for the Germans until Mr. 9-2 directing the .50 Cal went win a ROF terror turning the game around. Two civilian interrogations and lots of sniper activity for the Russians, albeit most of the snippers targeted the German counterpart.
2020-02-20(A) David Shannon vs Tim Reade DrawSadly we never finished the game (due to lockdowns). A fine introduction to night rules and it was in the balance after three turns.
Russian tip - stay cloaked as long as possible to allow advancing into gutted buildings without becoming CX.
2019-12-16(D) David Stoffey vs Jay Dragonetti German winWe used the German balance and felt it made the Germans favor the scenario too much. Would recommend the scenario without any balance.
2016-06-29(D) rene cote vs Mrosberg Russian winFirst night scenario. Managed to,threaten the rail station from the north but failed. Gave a good fight with FT in the nail factory but too little too late.
