Synopsis:Currently things are roughly even. Unfortunately my M26 platoon is apparently crewed by unlucky bastards, right off the bat two tanks bogged down and suffered mechanical failures attempting to traverse a small patch of forested area. The remaining three commenced a long range gun duel with the Panthers which eventually lead to losing on of my Pershings despite hull down position with the Pershings doing piss all to the Panthers. Luckily my Easy 8's flanking maneuver was successful and they managed to destroy two of the Panthers so far. Additionally one of my M24s managed a on hit one of the Panthers, and despite not doing damaged the crew failed their morale check and are currently fleeing. My left flank is in a bad way one of my M24s managed to immobilize one of the Panzer IVs before being popped by the others and the rest of the platoon is bearing down on the other one. Tomorrow I hope to continue the Easy 8 flank attack using the bocage for cover and hopefully snuff the remaining Panthers. If that goes well I will pull the two functional M26s and two of the M24s and try to engage the Panzer IVs while the Easy 8s go hunt down his Panzer IIIs
