Overview:

"Strength Through Unity" -- At the end of May 1940, the Belgian army was in dire straits and backed into the western part of the country. However, the German advance was anything but a cakewalk. The Lys river line was stubbornly defended by Belgian troops whose zeal was reminiscent of their fathers’ 25 years earlier on the Yser. Near Oostrozebeke, the Germans managed to penetrate the 8th division’s front. They used civilians as human shields and infiltrated through grain which was already tall enough to provide cover. Infantrymen of the 21st Line Regiment fell back and fought side by side with the gunners of the 5th Artillery who had to blow up their own guns. Major Leclerq, commanding officer of the 1st Battalion of the 21st, decided to counter-attack with a combined force of infantrymen, gunners and engineers. At 1830, the bugles signaled the charge.
Attacker: Belgian (1st Battalion, 21st Line Regiment, 4th Group, 5th Artillery Regiment and 10th Engineers Regiment)
Defender: German (1st Battalion, 455th Infantry Regiment)

2022-01-26(A) pierre vasad vs Gruhl German winLe rush des belges au départ et la précision des tirs allemands a posé de nombreuses questions de routings et les failure to rout (+ une disruption) des belges leur ont coûté la victoire. Les allemands ont enfoncé le clou avec deux CH du mortier au 4 et 5e tour.
2021-02-13(A) O Ramaille vs Belgian winGerman fire was poor and was unable to stop the Belgians. On the opposite, the accurate and deadly fire of the Belgian MMG and mortar (2 critical hits) were quite decisive. A simple and fun but dicey scenario.
2020-01-27(A) Pascal Boileau vs Doba Serge German winA short and very fun scenario until the very last turn. A win was still possible during the last Belgian MPh despite the devastating effect of the German fire lane. At the end, Serge builded a "wall" which was very effective to definitely stop the Belgians units even with FPF.
