Overview:

In the arctic twilight, the 13th Demi-Brigade of the French Foreign Legion and five Hotchkiss tanks were successfully put ashore by British landing craft northeast of Narvik. One legion battalion and two tanks were sent to retake the supply center of the Norwegian 6th Brigade which had been captured by the Germans. Liberating the weapons depot would provide much-needed arms and ammunition for the Norwegians. . .

2020-05-09(D) Maurizio Mai vs Gunny German winI found it interesting, with HIP set up, and AFVs impossible to be killed. I believe the game was doomed for the French by Turn 3 when A) one tank first malf the MA and then, trying to repair it, broke it and the tank was recalled, B) two fire lines KIAed two MMC and limited the movement of the infantry, C) German MMC fired to the French MMG on the hill, kept the ROF for 4 shots and annihilated the whole stack. French conceded 1,5 turn before the end. My opponent didn't like at all :).
2020-03-15(A) O Ramaille vs German winThe French began well with a critical hit from the mortar that wipe out a squad in a building. The French approach was quite well performed with the armor to prevent the German reinforcements to reach the weapons depot. However, the German reinforcements managed to get into the building and won several close combats with a battle hardened leader. The French lost more than half of their forces and were unable to wipe out the Germand defenders from the building. A German victory.
2020-03-07(D) David Ramsey vs Martin Vicca French winHeld out as long as possible but a critical hit from the mortar destroyed my hopes..
2020-03-07(D) Ian Morris vs Simon French winCouldn’t land a shot on him until late in the game. Lost my last MMC to a FPF shot against the three squads coming to cc him.
2020-03-05(A) Simon Staniforth vs French win
