2020-09-13(D) Rob MacGinley vs Jean-Yves Tessier German winGermans seemed stalled early but then the mass of German vehicles
2015-08-28(A) Gordon Jupp vs Derek Cox French winWell I got the required infantry element off but failed miserably with the AFV's! We had a wind change which resulted in a light wind and lots of drifting smoke (which helped a lot)but I just couldn't touch the French tanks, who all seemed to have guided AP! Fun game tho!
2014-06-17(D) X von Marwitz vs Rudi Grossholdermann French winPlayed this scenario in preparation for a tournament as the French. It is somewhat strange to behold: A no less than 12 German Panzers and half a dozen of trucks loaded with troops along with a 37L in tow. The terrain is quite open as Plowed Fields are in effect. This already lets you conclude that the German needs to exit some stuff, some of it infantry. The French start with about half a dozen squad-equivalents of infantry which led by a 9-2 and 7-0 and an extremely deadly 47L ATG only capable of firing APCR which will most likely easily penetrate anything that will move into its sights. The French are restricted to set up on board 16 only. Their options for setup are somewhat limited if they want to cover some part of board 33. They are reinforced by a number of thick skinned French tanks with pea-shooter armament early until in turn 5 two S35 Soumas make their dreaded appearance with their 47 guns. At that time, the French will be under extreme pressure if not flattened. The fun level was not very high as the French in this one. As the open ground that can soon be covered by the lavish presence of tank MGs, movement is very restricted for the French for infantry. The French tankers are up to some frustration, as their pea-shooters are unlikely to kill anything IF they hit - burdened by red TH#s, range, and German movement. Basically, they sit and hope that they survive until the Germans need to come close. The Germans are able to move about blindingly fast if they so desire. They will fear the ATG, which is unlikely to cover all German approaches. They could try and rush, hoping to flood the French and get away before the Soumas get onboard, hoping that the losses they sustain in the process are bearable. Or they can try to advance as much as possible out of harm's way with vulnerable units, reducing the French with their tanks. My opponent chose the latter path. Basically, I could not much harm him for quite some time (29TH attempts, 5TK rolls, neglible effect in one VASL session). During turn 4 things heated up a little, and I started to do some damage, my infantry having malfed/broken its MTR, LMG and lost the 9-2 and three 248 HS. Still, I was pretty convinced that the German would bring this home. When at long last the Soumas came on, I was hurting the German who conceded during the German MPh of Turn 6. I have to say, though, that my German opponent was plagued by Malfunction, which hit 4 or 5 of his tanks and the ATG. Bottom line: Hm, I guess I would pass this one when offered to play it again.
2012-06-19(A) Andy Beaton vs Jeff Wasserman French winA puzzling scenario - getting the infantry across the board in trucks is the only choice, but it's hard to get even a semi-safe route
2009-03-13(A) David Ramsey vs Sam Prior French winComplex scenario to play well. The French gun is a killer!
