2024-07-03(A) M T vs V.K. DrawFun game and the first draw I ever played.

I really like the concept in this scenario. I would however probably lower the EVP needed for victory, maybe to 9 or 8. I think that would help keep the game more dynamic.
2023-12-16(A) Paul Works vs James Treu American win
2023-03-15(D) Kevin Duval vs Dwayne Duval German (SS) winUsed American balance. Most units of both forces met head-on with Americans deciding to send 3 squads with leader around flank to try for easy exit. Germans (with superior Morale) won the toe-to-toe fight leaving the Americans coming up short in EVP.
2022-11-25(A) Rob MacGinley vs Mike Abbott German (SS) winSo its run towards each other snd shoot well
A failed paln from me since I roll High!!
2022-06-24(D) Paul Legg vs Stuart Brant German (SS) winDouible One 2022 - Mini Round 1
We rolled for sides and I got the Germans. This ended up being the theme, no matter who rolled or the selected criteria I ended up with the Axis side in all 6 games. I also got to move first in this one. This scenario is unusual in that both sides get dummies. I bought mine on in 3 lots of 2 whilst my opponent came on as one large stack and then grew 5 separate piles. With judicious use of leaders and double time I gained the large woods and significant strategic locations, some of which I held with dummies. The patrols finally met on the third turn. I nearly broke through on the final turns but settled for using my superior morale to take prisoners and won on the cvp conditions.
