AUTUMN BIG GAME 2019 REPORT (11)

While Reichsmarshall Goering was now safely ensconced with the Spanish Blue Division, his Fallschirmjager were widely scattered over the fields of Mortimer's Cross (and some had not even made it, their Elefun markers falling off table). A sudden rush for their equipment pods, as NCOs barked the well trained paratroopers back into some sort of section order, and a widely differing fate for different sections.....

To the east of the table, falling into Communist held territory, the Fallschirmjager had difficulty re-organising before
Colonel Comrade Professor Winter's highly trained OGPU troops (and their allies) fell upon them. Here, a lonely
trooper realises his utter isolation. Behind him, and admittedly rather blurrily, some of his comrades are executing
the Soviet Realist Film Crew (making sure there will be no witnesses, presumably) while being pelted with
catapult stones from the Soviet backed Boy Scouts. Our lonely Fallschirmjager will not survive for long...
A different story in HMG territory to the west of Mortimer's Cross. Here a section of Fallschirmjager have
re-organised themselves quickly, and are now heading towards Farmer Giles' land (carefully avoiding
Farmer Roo's), supported by a section of Govt. Infantry,the Hereford Auxiliary Reserve Division ("HARD")
The Government "Advanced Crusader" tank leads two more sections of Fallschirmjager towards Farmer
Giles' land. Farmer Roo's infantry advance in support, keeping a wary eye out for "any trespassers or townies".
