Overview:

As the British troops in Calais were preparing to defend the town, the Rifle Brigade received orders to escort a column of ten-ton lorries loaded with rations for the British at Dunkirk. A composite force of infantry and tanks was made up to handle this task. Unfortunately, by the time the convoy moved out at 0400 hours, units of the 1st Panzer Division were already present in strength in the area. Halfway between le Beau Marais and Marck, three miles outside of Calais, the column met a strong German blocking position, with infantry and anti-tank guns positioned in the houses and allotments.
Attacker: British (B Company, 1st Battalion, The Rifle Brigade/3rd Royal Tank Regiment)

2023-06-07(A) Craig Renier vs Steve Boro German winThe British struck at the German right and center using the infantry to clear the way for the armor. The tone of the attack was set early when the lone British Mortar had no smoke on the first roll. The German attacks were very effective while the British regularly failed their MCs. The British IFT attacks were low, but the Germans answered with low MC rolls. Being a bit too cautious through Turn 2, the British moved aggressively on Turn 3. However, the German defensive fire was devastating, achieving Ks and KIAs across the board. A German HS struck out on CC-Reaction Fire. Needing a 3 for a Immobilization, the Germans rolled a 2, wrecking the British AFV. With the heavy losses, and the German forces virtually intact, the British conceded knowing their was no way to dislodge the remaining defenders.
2023-05-25(D) Steven Cummings vs Eric Zagden-Gross British win
2022-12-20(D) David Garvin vs Nick Faryna British winInitial British moves pretty much wiped out my screen. My AT Guns were ineffective, but later in the match my infantry stood tall; however, in the end, my forces fell to the Brits in a close match.
2020-06-09(D) Dan Best vs Dave Mareske British win
2020-06-09(A) Dave Mareske vs Dan Best British winA very close game. The Germans needed to destroy one more tank to get the win, but the British were in the village shooting away and breaking the Germans. Germans destroyed two tanks with the AT guns and two with an LMG. The ATRs did not do anything. Some good Melee wins for the British secured good positions towards the end of the game. I recommend this one!
