Overview:

It was vital for the German 6th and 18th Armies to get across the River Maas and the Dutch defensive line just beyond it swiftly. The Dutch defensive line – the so-called “Peel Line” – was composed of MG bunkers and artillery casemates fronted by an anti-tank ditch, wire and mines. It was certain to slow the German advance. Before hostilities opened, German Abwehr troops in the uniform of Dutch MPs seized the railroad bridges at Gennap. Armored trains filled with German troops rolled across and five miles further to the Peel Line. The first resistance was met as the trains crossed the bridge over the anti-tank ditch. The trains proceeded another half-mile and then detrained their troops and organized for an attack against the back of the Peel Line. . .

2021-03-01(A) manzoli andrea vs Galletto Dutch winI made a bad setup try to reach simultaneously 2 pillbox!! dutch never gave up
2020-06-23(A) Dave Mareske vs Dan Best German winThe Dutch put two pillboxes on the hill and one out in the open on board 33. Since the Germans only needed two they went for the hill risking some -2 shots but staying mostly intact. They used the mortars, a 9-1 and a MMG to pin down the Dutch on board 33, the rest assaulted the hill, breaking and taking prisoners, getting the win by turn 5 with little chance for a Dutch counter attack. This one is tough on the Dutch, but I would recommend keeping the pillboxes together. Both the German FTs rolled 12s on the one and only attacks.
