Overview:

The northern wing of Guards Armoured Division expected a clear run to Brussels. Crossing the Somme battlefields of the First World War, the Grenadiers set their sights on Waterloo, where they had gained their title in 1815. Even after two tanks were knocked out in front of Pont-À-Marcq, it was hoped that resistance would evaporate; but here the defenders proved resolute. While the rest of the brigade took another route, the Grenadiers prepared to attack.
Attacker: British (King's Company, 1st (Motor) Battalion and 2nd Squadron, 2nd (Armoured) Battalion, The Grenadier Guards)
Defender: German (Pont-à-Marcq Garrison)

2023-09-10(A) Douglas Leslie vs Jeff Howell British winAs the British, I took the extra infantry and artillery module on the basis that I was worried that the AFVs would provide juicy targets for the Germans to take me towards the CVP cap. The Germans took the heavy mortar, SS squad, and the killer HT. Basically I deployed everything that I could to cross the open ground towards the factory and, with the help of some smoke, managed to get there relatively unscathed. The artillery didn't do much but sheer weight of numbers overwhelmed the defenders with a turn to spare. Fun scenario with some replay value due to the various force selection options for both sides.
