karl saw the panzer IV blow apart a a building on the other side of the street, limbs were flung everywhere. he ordered his men forward into the front half of the shop where they took up positions in the windows. the remains of the soviet squad charged out into the street. karl's men opened fire. three soviets were cut down whilst the survivors took cover behind rubble. karl took out his last stick grenade and threw it at the russians. it landed in front of the rubble and was promptly thrown back. it landed next to franz who promptly threw himself onto the grenade to save the rest of the section and was blown to smithereens. one of the soviets popped up from behind the rubble and shot steffen in the head. karl jumped through the broken shop window and ran over to the panzer IV and crouched behind it, albrecht and erwin followed him.

karl saw a soviet anti-tank round slam into the panzer IV, it didn't do much damage to the tank, but the soviets had revealed their position. big mistake. erwin took out a grenade and threw it. it landed inside the house that the soviets were hiding in and exploded, several mangled bodies were flung into the street. the grenade was promptly followed up by a hail of fire from karl, erwin and albrecht, karl heard a scream and saw a soviet fall out of the remains of a window. albrecht, being the squads resident marksman, shot another soviet before moving back behind the tank.

Faction: Axis
Country: Croatia
Squad type: Anti-tank Infantry of the Croation Legion
Squad members:
Bojan Topelkoff-Commander (Wz. 35 anti-tank rifle)
Antonio (same)
Antun (same)
Bara (same)
Bartolomej (Panzerschreck crewman)
Aleksander (same)
Bozidar (K98, Bayonet)
Dalibor (same)
Davor (same)
Hrvoje (same)

Bojan led his miserable little anti-tank squad and their escort down the street. The day was going badly as they had gotten lost in the streets of Stalingrad and had clearly become detatched from the 369th infantry. Not only that but they had no idea where the enemy were and being an anti-tank team they would be all the more easier to kill.

"Casnik," asked a very lost Dalibor, "Where are we going?"
"Tišina!" Bojan angrily answered, "I am trying to think idiot!"
"Čujem pucnjava gospodine!" suddenly cried Bozidar, "I hear a tank!"
"Nastavite s oprezom. We shall see whose tank it is." said Bojan.

The anti-tank team moved carefully forward and spotted a Panzer IV firing on a building.
They carefully moved forward and to prevent friendly fire infurled a German flag. Almost immediately a burst of gunfire ripped into Dalibor's stomach, causing him to drop and gurgle on the ground.

"Uzmi poklopac!" Cried out Bojan as the remaining members of the unit ducked behind a pile of rubble.

As Antonio leaped his loaded anti-tank rifle hit the rubble going off pointed in the direction of the Panzer, whose machine gun suddenly ceased fire. Bojan turned to see their flag lying dangerously out of reach.

"Pištolj se okreće!" Said Antonio, "They are turning their gun and will fire on us!"
Bojan turned to the Panzerschreck team who had loaded their gun, "Ubiti tenk! We must destroy it before it kills us all!"
"No. gospodine! Do you really want us to-" "FIRE!" Screamed Bojan and the Panzerschreck belched an 88mm at the Panzer.

The Croatian coughed in the gas cloud the weapon made as it fired, and saw the round explode on the tank...

Michael saw the Croatian squad and the flag. He also saw the man with the flag getting killed. Infantry. Good. Tanks in urban combat are useless without infantry. Suddenly an anti-tank round hit the Panzer. It was shot by the Croatians. Michael was in rage. But there was something wrong. He couldn't decide what because he was still dizzy from the shot. But something was wrong. But what? The engine. He couldn't hear the sound of the engine. That was bad. Very bad.

"Release smoke grenades!" Michael breathed easier when smoke covered the tank. He poked his head out of the tank and shouted towards the Croatians: "YOU SCHWEINFEST! YOU BETTER GET KILLED OR I'LL SHOOT YOU MYSELF! Now cover us while we start the tank you idiots." As Michael closed the hatch he heard a gunshot and felt a bullet fly by his head. A close one. "Klaus, try to start the engine." Michael heard the engine rotating and attempting to start. It almost did. "Again." Michael commanded. The air in the tank was full of tension mixed with fear. It seemed as the crew wasn't even breathing. And finally the engine started. The roar of the engine felt as the waves on the shore at home. How could Michael ever have thought that it was disturbing?

The tank moved forward a bit and started randomly shooting towards the Soviets with all the weapons. They probably didn't do much damage as they didn't see through the smoke.

karl furiously dashed across the street with albrecht and erwin. he crouched down next to the croatian commander.
"what in the name of the fuhrer do you think you're doing you fool! you nearly took out our tank! one more foolish move and i'll shoot you myself! that is, if the soviets don't get you first!" karl angrily spat. "useless allies. we should'nt have let them join our nation in this war in the first place! they are casuing us more greif than our enimies!" albrecht muttered.

Bojan felt a wave of relief as the apparently unconcerned Panzer had apparently avoided their 88mm under a smokescreen. And, very conveniently had not shot them... Yet. This was tempered with the fact that three German soldiers approached the leader of whom was screaming in German.

After listening to the screaming German Bohan responded, "We are sorry sir for causing any problems, it seemed to us that the tank was about to kill us. And, we value self preservation above all." The German was obviously still very irritated. "Uhhh.. We are an anti-tank unit, I should tell you that, and as you can see we're not well equipped for fighting men with guns. However we can provide aid if it's needed, just point to where the Russian dogs hide."

karl was still furious. "thanks to you idiots the soviets have got away! now, if you want to live, get into one of those buildings and kill anything wearing a soviet uniform! one more slip and you won't live to see the victory of the third reich!"

Bojan pointed at an intact building. "Premjesti! We will station ourselves in that building behind this rubble pile."

With that the Croats fled from the Germans and stationed themselves in the building waiting until the sun would reflect off the cap of some Russian dog.

karl scowled at the croatians as they scarpered off into a ruined building. "cowards." he muttered.
"forwards!" time to hunt the soviets!" karl ordered, he ran forwards and looking up at the croatians in the ruined building, resisted the urge to spray them with bullets from his MP40.
karl ran past the tank as it trundled forwards, albrecht and erwin followed closely.

Bojan started puffing a ciggarette. Surely the Germans would not have an anit-tank squad become targets for snipers, not if they wanted to survive any armour that showed up around here. However the Croats were determined to stay where they were.
 

DeletedUser

Dimitri Squad didn't run to far as they wanted to stop those tanks. So they weent down a ally way between the houses (which this ally way is right next to the house they were just in) and the exit the ally way and go inside the house across the street.

They set up their bazookas ready and the machine gunners laying down waiting. They wait for the tanks...though hoping they don;t really come.

As they wait, one of them starts busting down the walls to the next building next to the one they are in, and he keeps doing that a lot of the way across.

karl, erwin and albrecht cautiously advanced down the street, following the panzer IV, erwin walked past a small alleyway and was instantly ripped to shreds by machinegun fire. karl and albrecht instantly took cover behind a pile of rubble and returned fire. but it was no good, there was too many of them.
"we need support!" karl shouted. it was time for the croatians to prove their worth.

"Gospodine, čujem pucnjavu!" Yelled Davor. Bojan paused, "Yes, I do hear it, and I hear our comrades calling for support. We shall go, and assist no?" The men hurridely packed up and advanced towards the house where a machinegun was chattering away on the pathetic remains of the Germans.

The men set up, the Soviets were to busy lining up their sights on the tank. "FIRE!" A panzerschreck rocket followed by heavy anti-tank rounds laced through the building. Bojan smiled happily as he listened to screams and groans inside it.

Michael heard bullets hitting the hull of the tank. The infantry had to be in trouble. "Halt. Werner. Hit them with..." He stopped as the Croatian Panzerschrecks hit the commies, "...machine gun" He and his tank was in a somewhat bad situation: If the German infantry was killed of he wouldn't have infantry cover (as he didn't think he could count on the stupid Croatians) and if he didn't have infantry cover they would be a sitting duck for the Soviet AT teams

(look everyone, this thread is pretty much dead, so we'll end it just like we ended the dunkirk thread. everyone do one last post before i wrap it up and get regal to lock it. kith has agreed that i can do this.)

karl saw the soviets infront of him be torn to shreds by the croatians. hopefully all of the communist scum would be dead. but just to make sure, karl decided to go forward.
"cover me!" he told albrecht.
karl stood up and ran towards the alleyway, MP40 at his hip,he saw a muzzle flash and felt a tremendous pain in his chest, he collapsed on the ground just as albrecht began to fire.
karl found breathing hard, the bullet must've punctured a lung.

Bojan watched as the pair of Germans went out to die, fanatical fools the were. However, he paused the bullets had not only come from the original Russian position. He then peered down the street, only to see a large group of battle hardened Soviets advancing just outside of the tanks view armed with machineguns, rifles, and anti-tank arms, they were closely being followed by two smaller tanks who were hard to identify but from the looks of it armed with cannons and not machine guns. The Croat didn't spare a second.

"Retreat! Let these German fools fight their own one sided war!" And with that the Croats hurridely ran for their lives leaving behind the single German and tank to deal with the large group of Russians.

"Oh well", Bojan thought as they ran through ruined buildings, "This was Stalingrad, and if a bunch of Germans and a tank were eliminated, nobody would give a second thought about a bunch of Croatians running for their lives in the area. After all, it is Stalingrad."

OK people. i might as well wrap it up here.

here's what happened to the characters;

karl died of his lung wound, and albrecht was killed soon after.

michael and his tank beat a hasty retreat, but were shot up by the soviet T-34's, the crew bailed out and were taken prisoner.

bojan and his croatians ran back to the nearest german camp where they were put on
tank hunting duties where they sustained losses, they were eventually captured when the germans in stalingrad were surrounded and forced to surrender.

the remains of dimitri squad joined up with the soviets in the area and were granted medals, the following year they fought during the battle of kursk where they all they sustained heavy injuries, they spent the rest of the war in hospital.

so that's stalingrad wrapped up, and i'll get regal to lock it.
so goodbye for now, but i'll see you soon in the forests of the ardenne...
