3rd POV
Tony: Alright, listen up everyone. We've got a tough situation on our hands with those guys going to try and use their SU-100Y's from afar, So to counter them we're gonna be headed into the city. To set up a trap that can give us the upper hand. Any ideas?
Jacob: I was thinking we could use the narrow streets to our advantage. We position two Sherman's at the entrance of a street, creating a choke point. That'll slow down their advance and give the 76 a clear line of fire to knock out their heavier tanks while they're bogged down with the shows
Benjamin: Good idea. And we can have the third Sherman hiding in a building or behind some debris. When their tanks get stuck in that choke point, we hit them from behind and their front with a coordinated ambush.
Tony: I like it. We need to time this perfectly though. As they start getting stuck in the choke point, we hit them simultaneously. Our main goal is to disable their lead tanks and cut off their escape
Michael: We should also consider using smoke grenades If things get hairy to obscure their vision. So they won't be able to see our positions clearly and it'll buy us some extra time to get into position to put some shells into their side.
Tony: Let's also make sure our communication is on point. Radio silence until the ambush begins. We don't want to tip them off too early.
Jacob: Agreed. This is our best shot at taking them down, We'll need precision, timing, and coordination to make this work.
Tony: Alright, let's move out and execute this plan. Good luck, everyone. And let's give those Soviet bastards a surprise they won't ever forget.
Third-person POV
Five Sherman's roll out from the starting location three M4A2, One M4A2 76 And the flag tank a Jumbo They're heading for a nearby abandoned city to lure the Soviets into a trap

Once they entered their positions they began to wait for the Soviet advance into the city and they did not have to wait long as they could already hear the rumble of the Soviet engines.
The Soviets were entering the city slow and methodical checking for traps but as they entered the road where the Americans were hiding they were beginning to think the Americans just weren't here but as they drove further into that narrow road they'd be proven very wrong.
*BOOM*
And with a 75 millimeter shell from one of the Sherman's at the entrance of the road goes the rearmost T-34-85 Cutting off the Soviets escape route.

*BOOM*
The 85 millimeter shell slams right into the front of the showroom knocking it out of the fight.

*BOOM* X 2
The jumbo and 76 returned fire with the jumbo once again bouncing its shell but the 76 slammed into the turret face penetrating and knocking out the IS-1, Winning the practice match for the Americans.
Tony commander of the American team hops out of his jumbo and walks up to the knocked out IS-1
Tony: That was one hell of a match
The commander of the Soviet team Ivan hops out of his knocked out IS-1 and jumps down to talk with Tony
Ivan: Yeah Tony that was one good match but it could have been better
Tony: Please tell me how that match could have been better Mr fake Russian
Ivan: 1 words hurt and 2 would have been much better if we would have won
Tony: ha Maybe next time maybe next time anyway on a more exciting topic's HQ sent over a radio message before the ambush talking about some invitation the japs sent over.
Ivan: Cool but first we gotta get all these tanks back to HQ
(48 Minutes later)
After returning all 10 tanks back to their garages at the school all the teams meet up for a 'What not to do' meeting
Tony: Ok So anyone want to go first
Hinkle Gram the commander of the First T 34-85 to be knocked out stands up
Hinkle: I feel we fail to be aware enough not being able to see the obvious signs of a trap,I feel if we would have sent in a scout tank instead of our entire force we may have been able to win the match
Mumbles of agreement are heard throughout the Soviet team
Tony:Thank you Hinkle you can sit down now, Anyone else?
After a few seconds of Silence go by Tony speaks again
Tony: No one, okay. On to more important matters the invite to the 63rd National tankrey tournament in Japan
