Although the Battle of Stonne is not widely known, it was one brutal and crucial engagement. Captain Billotte managed to knockout 13 tanks and 2 anti-tank guns in a short engagement that was part of the Battle of Stonne, which lasted only for two days but say the small village change hands 17 times. ---** Credits & Special Thanks **--- The Counter-Design is heavily inspired by Black ICE Mod for the game Hearts of Iron 3 by Paradox Interactive https://forum.paradoxplaza.com/forum/index.php?forums/blackice.467/ ---** Sources **--- Frieser, Karl-Heinz: Blitzkrieg Legend Billotte Medal from World of Tanks http://worldoftanks.com/en/content/guide/general/achievements/ ---** Notes on Accuracy & “Methodology” **--- Main source for information and maps is Frieser (see sources).
