MidWar at EndGame

NorCal hosted a small MidWar event last weekend at 65 points, and I brought a DAK Rifle Company- HQ, two Rifle Platoons, 5cm PaKs, Marders, Artillery, and an armored car platoon.

In the first round I would defend against Dave's British Churchill Squadron in No Retreat.

Dave drove all of his tanks and armored cars through this patch of woods, but I had placed my minefields to prevent them from easily coming out to shoot me.  His first tank made it through unscathed, but his formation commander hit a mine!
His lone Churchill assaulted me and pushed me back from the objective a bit, but his other Churchill hit another mine and the formation broke.
I narrowly won this one, only the minefields had any effect on the big tanks.  My Marders were able to destroy his Sherman platoon, leading to an 8-1 victory.

In round two I battled Sam's British Honey Squadron in Bridgehead.

Sam's Universal Carriers pushed his deployment down my flank pretty far, and the Honeys were able to overwhelm my objective early.  My Artillery and PaKs were quickly destroyed.
My reserve units came in and assaulted a pair of 17/25 Pounders, but couldn't do anything else.
A quick 1-8 loss to a quick and overwhelming attack by light tanks.  The Marders came in on the opposite side of my deployment area, and that was it.  Well played, Sam!

In the last round I faced Wyn and his US Stuart Company in Breakthrough.

I knocked out quite a few tanks early, from an ambush by the PaKs and a lucky artillery strike.
My PaKs held this scrub patch for way longer than they should have, and took out quite a few Stuarts, but ultimately were assaulted to death.  My infantry platoons did the opposite, and died super fast...
My formation broke once the second infantry unit broke and ran, but I was pretty close to breaking Wyn's army, too.  2-7 loss for me.

Fun event, looking forward to the next!
