Overview:

"20 Years Later" - - -Beginning in September 1939, on both sides of the Franco-German border, the armed units took up their positions, protected by the coverage units. For this purpose, France had created the Border Guards, but poorly trained, poorly armed, composed of soldiers who sometimes had family in Germany, these units generally performed badly. On the 8th September, a detachment received orders to reconnoiter the German village of Berensdorf. - - - Victory conditions: To win, the French player must exit > 9 CVP (in Good Order) off south board edge.
Attacker: French (Detachment de Gardes Frontaliers)
Defender: German (Detachment Grenschutz)

2024-09-09(D) Jobbo Fett vs JobboFett French winThe French got off to an early start by having a squad break, but rescuing the rest of their forces through schemery, bypass, and lack of LOS from the initial German positions. The longer range of the French really helped out when taking potshots, of which the French typically had the better luck, and the Germans were unable to match that with their own morale checks.

A steady retreat and some choice sacrifices meant the Germans could never catch up to the French to put any large amount of pressure. By the end, French losses equaled 6 CVP and they were able to exit 14 to secure the victory. I appreciated the SSR to restrict No Quarter, which makes understanding the prisoner rules that much more important when choosing to move as the Germans. Worth a 2nd play, short and sweet.
