Overview:
The Poles formed several ad hoc formations to resist the Soviet invasion. Operation Group Dubno was initially formed to resist the Germans, but would find themselves instead fighting the Russians. An armored unit, named Company Jakubowicz, was formed on 14 September and assigned to the Dubno Group. It contained Renault tanks from the 21st Light Tank battalion and three Hotchkiss tanks. The Soviet Ukrainian Front advanced into southeastern Poland, and Group Dubno went into action, providing the invaders an Iron Greeting.Attacker: Polish (Elements Operational Group Dubno)

| 2024-01-30 | (A) Andy Bagley | vs | Johan Vrijdaghs | Polish win | Second playing of this scenario, which again featured a mass of opposing tanks chasing each other around the village. Early success for the Poles meant that there was virtually nothing left of the Russian at-start forces by the time their reinforcements arrived, so I just had to hold on to the victory buildings I captured. A few good Russian shots made this harder than it might have been, and there was still a theoretical chance of a Russian comeback when we ran out of time, but it was very unlikely and my opponent generously conceded. | ||
