Overview:

After the fall of the Peel-Raam positions and the improvised Zuid-Willemsvaart Canal line, total chaos reigned among the Dutch army in Brabant provinces. All hope to stem the thrust of 9th Panzer for the Moerdijk bridges lied with the French, moving up from the south. But French objectives did not stroke with those of the Dutch as the primary mission of the Armee Giraud was to form a solid defense line to protect the all important Antwerpen harbour. To that effect, French forces were building up behind the Wilhelmina Canal from Ootserhout town to Tilburg and south of this city to the Belgian border. Late on the 11th, French activity was limited to a few reconnaissance efforts northeast of this freshly established line. At dusk, one of their detachments under the command of Captain Dudognon was sent out to investigate the condition of the Reusel stream bridge at Moergestel. At 23:00 contact was established with the Dutch unit responsible for the demolition of the artefact. Suddenly, out of the dark, a small German motorized column approached the stream crossing at high speed. . .

2025-06-21(A) Jobbo Fett vs JobboFett French / Dutch winAn interesting scenario that dips its toes into night rules with a small OoB and map area. It feels like it might be a little too easy to blow up the bridge with the Set DC, considering all of the rules for its use (and exceptions in SSRs), but at the very least it is possible to go around the water obstacles and potentially threaten the objective, even if the amount of time to do so is quite limited. In my game, the Germans were unlucky and their armoured cars beaten back by opposing kind manned by the French, which severely limited the infantry's ability to push ahead. Not too hard to set up and play.
