Overview:

Taking place during the Market-Garden offensive of 1944, a small group of British infantry, with two anti-tank guns, must hold off a German force supported by three armored assault guns. All of the British units may use hidden setup, so the German player will see nothing but a empty map as he begins his attack.

2020-12-18(D) Craig Renier vs Richard Vierra German (SS) winThe Germans directed their attack on the south side of the field, slowly advancing with infantry scouting for the British guns. One British squad positioned near the board edge was able to reduce the first squad to enter, but the remaining German force entered unscathed. At Turn 3 the Germans had advanced across half the board and entered into CC against the British MMC with the PIAT. The first British gun was set up on the North side with LOS down the road and had only 1 MF in LOS down the road when firing at the German tanks. The TH was lowered even more with the aide of a MMC laid smoke. Even though the Germans took heavy losses in CC, the British MMC and SMC were tied up in CC long enough for the German tanks to progress up the hill on the South side and move carefully towards West edge. On the last turn, the British had a faint hope, having won CC, by maneuvering the PIAT within striking distance and sending a HS into CC against a tank. But with the 2nd British gun emplaced in the brush on the North side, there was little hope of keeping at least two tanks from exiting. When the PIAT broke and CC failed, the Germans quickly exited the three tanks for a Victory.
2020-09-30(D) Ken Rutkowski vs George H British winThis was interesting. I thought I hid my guns pretty good. I rolled 10 on 5 of 6 TH rolls. The one that was successful couldn't even stun the German afv. Game came down to the last DF First Fire die roll. I had a 4ift with a -3 drm and rolled a 3 to prevent the German from exiting that last needed VP's. He had 16 of the 17 needed.
2020-08-16(D) Vilis Pavulans vs Jakob Gruvaeus British winNo fair game with my opponent trying to learn AFVs and getting the difficult side and the balance wasn´t enough. It was a close game though and came down to the last defensive fire with a 57gun firing AP ammo and managing to break the one squad that was needed for german victory.
2020-05-09(D) Derek Dunn vs Bruce Carson British winGood scenario to work through AT Guns and Tanks.
2020-05-03(A) Kevin Sanders vs British winWent to the last roll. Lost the winning tank to a AT gun. Solid Brit defense stopped 2 winning squads as well. Hard and have to move.
