Overview:

Field Marshal Model was beginning to comprehend the threat posed by the British at the Arnhem Road Bridge. He likewise understood the implications of the other Allied airborne landings and XXX Corps’ northward drive. Promising armor reinforcements for both kampfgruppen, Model demanded that Captain Knasut and Major Brinkman open the roadway south to Nijmegen. Knaust and Brinkmann sent heavily armed patrols forward to aggressively probe the British positions. One such attack came late in the morning from the industrial parks east of the bridge.
Attacker: German (SS) (Kampfgruppe Knaust and Brinkmann, SS-Panzer Division 9)
Defender: British (Company A, 2nd Parachute Battalion, 1st Parachute Brigade, 1st British Airborne Division)

2022-12-04(A) Ron Garcia vs Darryl M. British winProbably a decent scenario but horrible dice ruined any chance for a meaningful game for my Germans. By mid turn 2 two of three tanks had malfunctioned MA's, the 9-1 leader was wounded from yet another 12, and needing a 10 or less to take out a walking wounded squad resulted in - yep - another 12 which promptly withdrew into the cellar and became an even bigger nuisance. Needless to say, I called this one early.
2020-12-13(A) Jeff Wright vs Dave Johannsen German (SS) win
2020-07-05(D) patrick palma vs Juan German (SS) win
2020-02-09(A) Jesus Pie vs tozesantos German (SS) winVery exiting scenario with good troops on both sides.
2019-05-22(D) Kevin Duval vs Dwayne Duval British winUsed British balance.
