Wargaming in Lockdown - Turn 7

So, Turn 7 just got resolved.  Hot off the presses....

Osterreich Outlook


Prussian Perspective


With two turns to go, it is still exciting and in the balance.

Will the Austrians co-ordinate and use weight of numbers?

Will the Prussians use fresh troops and greater range (it is called "needling the enemy...") to hold the Austrian steamroller, perhaps to put it into reverse??  (As a Prussian - I DO HOPE SO!).

Stay tuned for turn eight - or Acht!  (putting the Acht! into Achtung!!)

Ladies & Gentlemen - your Good Friday reading!

Osterreich Outlook


Prussian Perspective


As in most BBB games, there is still opportunity for both sides to win this one.  

Will the Austrians wipe out the Prussians faster than the Prussian re-inforcements can deploy?

Will the Prussians, still hanging on, take the offensive?

Stay tuned for turn 6 !
