The headlong advance south towards France’s second largest city, Lyon, by Infantry Regiment Grossdeutschland continued with an assault gun from Lt. Von Werlhoff’s platoon leading the way. The first serious French resistance was met near Neuville-sur-Seine. There was a barricade in front of the village, which had a heavy machine gun, two light machine guns and a 47mm anti-tank gun. The assault spearheaded by the 6th Company, Infantry Regiment GD approached the barricade. Machine gun and rifle fire suddenly erupted from every house and near-by park. The assault gun immediately went into position and blasted the barricade.
Attacker: German (Kompanie 6, Infantry Regiment Grossdeutschland / StuG.Abt. 640)
I think this is a tough on on the French even though my AFV malfed its MA on its first shot, a SMOKE attempt. The German Elite INF made steady work of the French taking prisoners, clearing the road Turn 7 and preventing a small counter-attack on the French turn. If you take the French, definitely ask for the balance, though you might need more help than that.

A steady push by the Germans forced the French back and took a number of prisoners. The STUG was good support and provided smoke when needed to neutralise the French HMG. Came down to last turn and needed to eliminate remaining French squad and half squad. H/S eliminated in CC and the squad held in melee for the win.

West Coast Rumble 2020 round two. My hidden AT crew un-HIPped, moved and advanced next to the road on the last turn for the sleaze win. There Germans danced all around the orchard hex on turns one and two but never entered it. ;)

We gave the French the balance and the Germans still won on the last turn. The Germans and French had traveled from one end of the board to the other.

Good scenario. Colin made effective use of his dummy counters, tying the German mortars down in the north. Game came down to two simultaneous CC along the road. Good opportunities for a defender to fight a mobile defence.

Lots of different ways to play this one as the defender. Up front in your face or deploy all forces at the rear. I did a bit of both and had a group of concealed units which got around to the rear and attempted to deny the road control victory condition. Another quick one.

Close, exciting game down to the last half turn.. I lost my StuG right at the start to a very sneakily placed AT gun, and it was a struggle for the rest of the game. Great fun.

VASL-Great game and a recommended scenario, the Chateau fell without too much difficulty, but the Germans had to get their hands dirty in CC to clear the French out of the village on Board 10. The French earned 7 CVP and the StG was MA Malf and IMMOB. The French AT never fired a shot.

The French have a tough road for victory. A fall back appears to be a viable defensive strategy.
CC will probably decide the game.

Lucky break at the start made it possible for me to cause all sorts of problems later
