Overview:

In 1935, the Belgian government agreed to purchase 25 French-built AMC 35 tanks, armed with a 47 mm gun and a Hotchkiss MG. Over the next years, for economic and political reasons, the order was reduced to only 10 vehicles. When Hitler’s army invaded Belgium on 10 May 1940, the AMC 35s were the best armored vehicles in the Belgian arsenal. By 16 May, German forces had broken through Belgian lines along the entire front and two of these tanks were about to charge into battle for the first time.
Attacker: German (Advance elements of 56. infanterie-Division, IX. Armeekorps)

2022-02-11(D) nathan wegener vs James Treu Belgian winTense game - early rolls went the Germans' way and they surged across the canal taking out the MMG in M8. T2 Germans took out the second MMG in up in the insta-VC hex. Just enough resistance to avoid death and then the Tigers came on and shored up the defense. I had the AA gun guarding the flank with several 1 hex stone buildings and it brought a rain of steel on would be attackers breaking and killing several squads over the next couple turns. The tanks got a couple lucky rolls breaking up Kraut kill stacks. End game was still tense as the German squads rallied back and rushed the gun whose crew broke in FPF. The reinforcing squads arrived in the nick of time to stop the attack and push the Germans back out of the 6th VC building.German dice went cold in T4 allowing a comeback.
2021-06-24(D) Andy Bagley vs Joe Arthur German winVery well played by my opponent (though aided by never failing a smoke dr), who placed as mush smoke as possible to cover the bridge crossing, and even fired on the truck wreck, causing a blaze that further hindered my firing. I tried a bluff by putting dummies instead of a MG in 23M8, but this didn't really work, I should have gone for the obvious fire lane. Having crossed the bridge successfully, the Germans were able to advance on both the East and West flanks, and easily secured sufficient victory buildings without ever having to bother with building 68Q6.
2021-04-28(A) Øyvind Jacobsen Bjørkås vs Tuomo L Belgian winA very close and enjoyable game. The Germans got hammered early but managed to get everybody across the river eventually, taking 7 buildings in their last turn, but getting stretched thin though this and the Belgians took back 2 buildings in their last turn to clinch the win.
2021-02-28(A) Will Willow vs C. Argent Belgian winLots of wild swings in dice. Went to the last turn.
2020-05-18(A) Vilis Pavulans vs Peter Rogneholt German winPlayed against Peter who was helpful, giving me tips and helped me remember important stuff, picking up SWs and so on. Then two decisive rolls were on my side and that tipped the scenario over to me. His crew, manning the gun broke early and after that, as revenge for a 3 on the IFT my sniper woke and got his 8-1 leader and broke the MG squad and with that, the left flank was open for my brave troops, liberating Belgium.
