Overview:

Colonel Frost realized that disaster was now only a heartbeat away for his 2nd Para Battalion. Frost’s beloved battalion was being buried in the ruins of the buildings around him and his positions were being overrun. Yet Frost knew he was surrounded by the bravest of the Paras and was not yet ready to surrender. He was determined to deny the Germans access to the Arnhem Road Bridge to the last bullet. Major Digby Tatham-Warter, wearing an old bowler with umbrella in hand, also realized the gravity of the situation and once more led his Paras to evict a platoon of Germans that had infiltrated the ever-shrinking perimeter.
Attacker: British (2nd Parachute Battalion and No. 3 Platoon, Royal Army Service Corps)
Defender: German (SS) (SS-Panzer Division 9 and Kampfgruppe Knaust)

2023-02-06(D) Ron Garcia vs Darryl M. German (SS) winDecent scenario. Plays fast but nothing unique about it. Has a Stalingradesque feel to it with elite troops battling it out for stone buildings. My dice were pretty good and my opponent's were piss poor. That was the difference in this game. Whenever I needed to make a critical roll, I did. Whenever my opponent needed to, he failed. In fact, I don't think think I failed a MC the whole scenario (although I did lose some guys in CC).

My thoughts for the Germans is to hunker down in building M18 with a few HS dispersed to keep the British from rushing you on turn 1. If you can keep the British from getting a foothold in building M18 through turn 3, the game should be yours.

For the British: flank from the west side and apply pressure from building M14. A LMG in building O13 and, depending on the situation by turn 3, the orchard in O15 are probably worth it for the firelanes they can lay down the street splitting the German reinforcements from the at start group. Two 1FP firelanes aren't much, but it will give the Germans something to think about. A unit with a PIAT or PF in Q15 wouldn't hurt, either.
