(VASL Log)		Poor scenario design.
2026-04-24(A) Douglas Leslie vs Jonas Bjorkqvist German win

(VASL Log)		FNF game. The Germans drew group 2 while the French got the AT guns . Jonas opted to hold back and let the Germans come to him. Basically, he couldn't get a kill on a German vehicle and conceded on turn three with two AMRs down and one ATG taken out. Tough scenario to balance with three possible groups for each side and an even chance of moving first. I wouldn't fancy the French chances with group three but the combo that we got made for an interesting armour battle.
2026-04-24(D) Paul Legg vs Rich Domovic German win

(VASL Log)		Friday Night Fight - Conceded on turn 3 despite getting to move first. I received the Group 2 tanks which went through the centre to influent both boards an split the infantry and armoured cars between both boards. On reflection I think a better option is to concentrate the infantry on the southern board and AC on the north. With me having the tanks I would send to the north group and the other two to the south to support the infantry. Because I split my forces, the ACs in the north hung back to support the infantry, instead of pushing for the bridge. This allowed the Germans to cross the stream in force and swamp my forces, so I would be unable to stop the exit points.
2024-05-14(D) O Ramaille vs French winBoth French and German split their force to get to the two bridges over the flooded stream. French with additional AMRs moved first waiting for the Panzers on the other side of the bridges. The Panzers crossed the northern stream but were eventually quite all destroyed by the AMD 35s or recalled by a sniper shot. On the southern bridge, the Panzers were more lucky and destroyed the AMRs. Still, one panzer was burnt on CC by French infantry. Two Panzers managed to exit but not enough to win. The Germans suffered 34 CVP and inflicted 26 CVP. A major French victory.
