Overview:

In a furious assault in the villages of Veldwezelt and Briedgen, 114 German fallschirmjagers capture two bridges across the Albert Canal and destroyed the detonator wiring. Still under desultory fire, engineers removed the explosives. Lt. Altman, commanding the paratroops, reported success and settled back to await relief by the 4th Panzer Division. But it was not to be that simple. The Belgian command, acting with rare alacrity, ordered the 2nd Carabiniers to recapture the lost bridges. The paratroopers, outnumbered and exhausted after 30 hours without respite, gave ground slowly but steadily. In desperation, Altmann called in the Luftwaffe, who immediately dispatched a flight of Stukas.

2022-03-15(D) David Garvin vs Bill Sosnicki German win
2020-07-02(A) Dave Mareske vs Dan Best German winDan set up a good defense that was hard to break. By the time I was able to get through the Belgians had very little left. The Belgians ran out of gas on turn 8 and they still were facing four full squads. A highlight (for Dan) has a leader battle hardened and became heroic on an interdiction roll!
2020-06-08(D) David Garvin vs Nick Faryna German win
2019-12-14(A) Jeff B vs Timothy Davis Belgian winThis scenario's a real dud. It's a pure dicefest, with the Belgians lining up on one side of the canal and the Germans on the other (assuming they make it across safely - which shouldn't be a problem). The Germans have the TEM advantage, while the Belgians have the range. But the big swing factor is the Stukas. In our game the Germans didn't get them in time before the Belgians had the breakthrough on the dice, eliminating 1.5 German squads, breaking the 9-2, and breaking another 2.5 squads.
