Overview:
During Operation Diadem, the 1st “Free French” Division was given the task to shield the right flank of the French Mountain Corps which was to lead the main attack into the difficult Aurunci Mountains. On 17th May, the French were progressing quickly along the Liri River valley thanks to the retreat of the German troops after the breakthrough around Monte Petrella. Around noon, the leading elements of the BM11 (March Battalion 11), abandoned by the accompanying tanks that were stopped sooner by mines, were stopped by MG fire coming from fortified houses on both sides of the road.Attacker: Free French (Elements of Bataillon de Marche n° 11, 1st DFL)
Defender: German (Elements 71 Infanterie-Division)

| 2022-10-30 | (A) Dmitry Klyuykov | vs | Slava Zipunov | Free French win (VASL Log) | French failed to blow up the German stone building but secured their half of the map, denying Germans enough VP. | |
| 2022-06-25 | (D) Ian Morris | vs | Gerard | Free French win | Lost despite outrageous dice luck, rolling at least eight snakes. Got close to the CVP victory, but couldn’t quite seal it. | |
| 2022-06-25 | (D) Simon Staniforth | vs | Magnus Rimvall | German win | My third playing in a couple of months this time at the Double One tourney. We both bid German and my opponent got the balance. He went hard after the initial on board German forces but couldn’t get control of the Fortified J3 building in the early turns. The German reinforcements all came on the west edge and were able to defeat the majority of the 3rd Company troops and pick up the necessary VP for a win in T4. A good challenge for both sides this smallish infantry only scenario | |
| 2022-06-25 | (D) Richard Webb | vs | Martin Barker | Free French win | Great little scenario at Double One. Lots of decisions and interesting terrain for an infantry only scenario. Came up short on VP locations, due to some silly mistakes and Martin's cunning defense and never say die attitude |
