Overview:

At the start of the invasion of France and the Low Countries-FALL GELB (CASE YELLOW)-most of Infanterie Regiment “Grossdeutschland” was attached to Panzer-Division 10, where it fought at Stonne, and later was employed against the British counterattack at Arras. After Dunkirk, the Germans launched FALL ROT (CASE RED), and “Grossdeutschland” was transferred south, where it helped establish a crossing of the La Noye River at both Quiry-le-See and Paillart on 8 June. The French 2nd and 4th Armies were crumbling as “Grossdeutschland” led the pursuit.

2026-03-10(A) Franjo B vs German winA bit crazy. Panzers were pursuing the Somuas and, after eliminating them, they went for the French infantry. The French could have won with a bit of luck (well, more than a bit) but the German armor had a last round of incredible Defensive fire shots and the French were doomed at the end of their 5th turn. I’ve enjoyed the experience, but it was quite chaotic.
2025-08-14(A) Herve Duval vs In progressI can’t see how the Germans can prevent the French from exiting. The R35 can exit in T2 (8vp) and the infantry double timing along the west road can be close to exiting by the end of T2
2025-01-10(A) Alvaro Diaz-Arce vs Manolo German winI forgot to move a couple stacks in an APh and were left in the open to be shredded to pieces, otherwise I think I could have pulled the win.
2022-01-14(D) Alberto Pomar vs César Moreno French win
2021-10-28(D) Craig Renier vs Eric Zagdan-Gross French winThe French rushed to the south with 2 AFVs, 4 MMCs, and 3 SMCs totaling 15 VPs and left a delaying force behind. The Germans attempted to maneuver around the French right flank to catch up. The Germans broke the French delaying force, but it had done its job by slowing the German advance. German reinforcements took some risks in order to get in front of the French, but lost an AFV in the process. On Turn 4, the French infantry exited with 1 VP shy of a win. With a German AFV in LOS, a French AFV moved to the south. The German AFV took 3 shots, attained 3 hits, but had no effect on every one. The French AFV exited for a win.

A savvy French player can make this nearly impossible for the Germans to win without the help of favorable dice rolls.
