Overview:

From Rate of Fire newsletter: "This scenario featured an action from Normandy, with a combined arms German force attacking British infantry and two (count them) 17 pdrs. Of the five games played, four were German wins. Only one game featured an early concession, the other all went to the 7th or 8th turns. In retrospect, the game was still felt to slightly favour the Germans; changes were an additional British half squad and HIP for one MMC."
Attacker: German (Panzer-Lehr-Regiment 130, Panzer-Lehr-Division)
Defender: Commonwealth (3rd Canadian Infantry Division and (British) 22nd Armoured Brigade)

2024-09-07(D) Rob MacGinley vs Jason Nichols Commonwealth winThis is a really good game to practise combined arms
Teh CW setup with tricky 17 pounder in town setup but always feared discovery - that happend with one but not the other
The firefly should get hull down behind a wall and wait to duke it out with panthers - remember the victory is Germans taking buildings so have lots of CW halflings re-taking things that have been taken and you can un do his timetable
For the Germans The MK4s lay down smoke to any overwatch posns then teh infantry drive forward with pamthers being careful to show frontal armour untill posns are cleared of ATGs in hiding - Cromwells are easy to swat - no so the firefly but you have to gang up
Basically JAson had both bad luck and a few simple mistakes at the start - lost momentum and struggled to get it back so was unable to take buildings
2023-10-15(D) Dan Best vs Kermit Mullins German win
