Solo play of Traces of Victory from @vucasimulations.bsky.social #wargaming
One order pre-GT1, 2 each turns 1&2. Turn 2 German reinforcements arrive. But turn 2 was clear so the Jugs joined the party and provided XX Corps enough help to cross the Moselle.

Turn three. Good lunge by the Germans down south although as the Soviets I was able to counter attack and kill the Mech infantry unit. Total kills for the Soviets was two German infantry units. Pretty good I think. Would make it tough to win. Held VV so can now retreat to the north.
