UPDATE: Web-Grognards, 13/10/96 From: Alan Poulter <alan@poulter.demon.co.uk> Date: Sun, 13 Oct 1996 00:00:00 +0000 Hi, The Schwerpunkt Challenge has been won!. The winner, who will be sent a free copy of Schwerpunkt's latest computer game, Rostov, is Allan Rothberg (arothberg@earthlink.net). Well done, Allan! He correctly answered that the Germans can't bomb Rostov because the air unit in Stalino is one hex too far to range the target. The Grognards Challenge: Allan Rothberg was also the first of the correct entrants to guess 'Target: Libya' in S&T 109. There were a lot of incorrect guesses. This is Allan's third win and the first win of two competitions at once on Web Grognards. A new Challenge awaits! A list of new links and files on Web-Grognards follows.
