First game up was against another paratrooper list 

The prep bombardment gave everyone pins. My Bren carrier was destroyed and 2 of his flame jeeps were destroyed. The battle raged for 8 turns! Both sides took a beating, my sniper was useless and didn't do a thing! After adding all the VPs up I took the win by 3 or 4 . 

The last game was against Germans. Not.maby infantry but 2 huge Panzer 4s!! I failed my prep bombardment roll and got hammered by my opponents. 2 pins on everything and my arty observer was taken out. From then on I struggled to move anywhere with pins  and was pounded by the tanks. My poor Cromwell was hammered by shots set on fire twice and turret jammed.  When it finally could move I thought let's go and it charged forward but missed a point blank shot.

Surrounded my Cromwell survived another turn and then it died . 

I called the game when I had 1 unit left as everything else had been destroyed. A true stomping!

But awesome fun getting to play 2 games in one day .
