BATTLE IN VILLERS FROMAGE

EACH SIDE HAD 15 MEN AND TWO TANKS

The battle began when I used my A7V to crush the  barbed wire on the edge of the village. My opponent on the far side moved his FT-17 up the wire with confident redcoats certain of an easy victory. After all-my last campaign had been a DISASTER.
Anyway, my brave Prussians advanced into town, massacring French civilians who resisted as we set up. The Brits were not as lucky, and a man was caught and killed in the barbed wire-the first of many deaths. My Sturmpanzerwagens fired at his infantry and missed every shot.
As the FT-17 advanced at its amazingly fast speed of 7.7 km/h I knocked it out with two shots from #503's(An A7V)57 mm cannon.

Then disaster struck when he attacked one of my lines of defense, breaching it with only 3 losses due to barbed wire. However, as soon as I moved Baden forward with my troops they surrendered on the spot! Psychological warfare DOES work in wargames!

Then his powerful MK IV Male advanced with the speed of a caterpillar to the front lines. The tank fired at my army-but they were obviously poorly trained because all it did was somehow kill a pigeon circling 100  feet above the town. I ordered my men to take cover behind the houses and to let the Panzers deal with the threat.
Baden fired while #503 snuck around the side of the village to perform an action that would decide the fate of the battle.
Baden's shells tore away the forward machine gun of the MK IV. The MK IV fired back and did little or no damage to my Sturmpanzer.

And now for the part that would go down in history as a great action in tank warfare:
A group of 5 redcoats marched down the street and found their path blocked by Prussian infantrymen, they turned around to find that the other exit was blocked by a huge iron fortress-A7V #503.
The A7V started firing at the surrounded Brits and the Prussian men did the same. The Poms were hastily and easily killed in the trap for only 3 losses of my own.
The MK IV exploded and the Britons retreated from the village, screaming in terror.
THE BATTLEFIELD WAS MINE.


OUTCOME
I won with my brilliant coordination of my Sturmpanzers and the infantry. I poured concentrated firepower on the only real threat(The MK IV)until it was put out of action.

THE BATTLE OF VILLERS ODEUR

The battle started when the enemy FT-17 light tank supported by five infantrymen approached the barbed wire. I did the same on the other side of the village with my A7V. We both proceeded to cross the wire and advance into the village. The Brits then dug in their troops behind the town's war memorial and the  FT behind a building.
The next thing I did makes me sound REALLY bad but here it is:
I fired at the war memorial to destroy it - and that I did!
I advanced as the monument toppled. Then I destroyed their will to fight with two high-explosive shells through their red uniforms. My Panzers kept advancing slowly over the wreckage of a house.
Three Brits turned and ran, dropping their rifles and screaming in terror. The dangerous MK IV male was EASILY a match for my Sturmpanzers, and some of my crews lost their nerve as it approached.
The FT on the other hand shied away from my guns as I advanced. My Prussian army seemed UNBEATABLE as it closed in on my English opponent. The FT, now partially concealed behind a wall loaded a shell and waited for my infantry. when they came in range, it fired. Killing two of my soldiers immediately while my A7V loaded a shell and swiveled the cannon at the puny vehicle. When it fired the shot did no more then destroying the wall it was cowering behind. My other Panzer was just as accurate when using its gun on nearby infantry.
Suddenly I heard men screaming in pain to my right. I looked to see the Renault, tracks covered with blood, crushing my poor soldiers! Then it killed two more with its cannon!
Suddenly the MK IV approached slightly to fire at me and my tanks. I fired first and knocked out its forward machine gun.
Then in one last act of defiance, the MK IV crawled onto the roof of the house in front of it to destroy my advancing forces.
Its metal carcass was struck repeatedly by fire from army and ground to a halt before exploding and killing all crew inside.
The Brits surrendered to the Prussians. I had won.
