Overview:

The left wing of the French 14th Infantry Division was held by the 2nd Infantry Division. On June 9, this division was forced to withdraw from its position. The Germans thus seized a bridgehead across a river and the panzers began to cross. The 14th’s general vigorously blamed his counterpart and ordered that he organize an immediate counterattack. Instead, that general ordered a 3 kilometer retreat, exposing the flank of the 14th, forcing it to withdraw. The 4th Regiment,7ème DLM was assigned to reconnoiter and slow the German advance wherever possible.
Attacker: French (1er Escadron (Capitaine Gobert) of 4ème Régiment d'Auto-Mitrailleuses of 7ème DLM)
Defender: German (Panzer Regiment 1. Panzer Brigade 1. of 1. Panzer Division)

2011-09-16(A) nathan wegener vs Albert W German winGermans rolled snakes on first hit attempt and the game went downhill from there for me.
2011-06-02(D) Ian Willey vs Martin Mayers French winThis time the dice were not so nasty and allowed a glimse of what the scenario can offer, though they still favoured Martin to the point I could not generate more than one kill (multiple imobile) whilst it only ever took a hit for Martin to then kill. Lot more fun though but overall I rated it average on my playings, should be better. Best tank only scenario if it reaches potential.
2011-05-26(A) Ian Willey vs Martin Mayers German winI could not get a kill, Martin could not roll above 6, very very short game.
