Overview:

In the days following Operation Spring, the 2nd Canadian Infantry Division conducted several short but sharp engagements to improve their positions. One such position was the adjoining villages of St. Andre-sur-Orne and St. Martin-de-Fontenay. The Canadians held the southeast portion of St. Andre and all of St. Martin except the church on the southern outskirts. Brigadier H.A. Young wanted the church taken. He believed the objective could be taken by a company of infantry supported by engineers.

2020-06-24(A) David Garvin vs Paul Washington German (SS) winI got off to a pretty terrible start as my 2 inch mortar failed to get SMK and then switched to HE.
My approach was pretty good and Paul was kind enough to have me create a hero. That said, I was unable to break into the church.
I probably unwisely went to my right to try to break in; that said, Paul had an MMG covering that other approach.
Great fun
2020-05-17(A) Michael Davey vs German Canadian winGame was in the balance going into last turn
2020-04-09(D) David Ford vs Dan Barnaba German (SS) winA series of firsts. My first Vassal game and my first losing of a scenario on the Archive. The Germans managed to stay in unbroken in the church, although everyone was in melee. Dan's Canadians came in hard from the North. They eschewed any strong flanking move and went straight for the church. He had good luck with his mortar placing smoke in the courtyard, thus covering his advance. There were several attempts to place the DC which failed until a lone HS managed to place it right in the middle of a large melee-lots of fun resulted from that! The game came down to the last two CC rolls in the last German turn of the game. The Germans managed to avoid getting killed and pulled out a close win. I really enjoyed the game and will be using Vassal much more in the future.
