Overview:

By the end of May 1940, the catastrophic unfolding of the battle for France caused the Allies to evacuate Norway. Nevertheless, it was decided to take Narvik in order to close the campaign on a victory and lessen the earlier humiliations. On the 28th, after an artillery barrage, a company of the 2nd Battalion of the Podhalansha Light Infantry and a pair of H-39s attacked along the coastal road to secure the town of Ankenes and thus control the Beisfjord south of Narvik.
Attacker: French (2ème and 4ème Bataillon, Brigade Autonome de Chasseurs de Podhale with 342ème C.A.C.C.)

2022-06-20(A) David Garvin vs Nick Faryna In progressGreat game, in the end, I was able to pin a German squad to retain the win!
2021-12-30(D) David Garvin vs Varick Ready German winThe dice just were not with the French this day. Between a sniper attack to kill a leader followed by a timely berserk elite German squad (that survived all defensive fire against him), the French just were not able to get near the buildings. By turn 3, they had suffered 12 CVP already, so the bell tolled.
2021-10-24(D) Kevin Duval vs Dwayne Duval German winUsed French balance. Germans on the Alpine Hills kept the French tied down & gained enough CVP to cause French from gaining any forward momentum.
2021-05-17(A) Dan Best vs Kermit Mullins German win
2021-05-17(D) Kermit Mullins vs Dan Best German winDan's French had some early luck against the Germans when they eliminated the two squads with the 9-2. Despite that success, ill-timed breaks disrupted the French attack, while the German sniper repeatedly broke squads on the north edge, stopping any advance along the north edge. By mid-game, Dan's tanks rolled into the fight and headed straight at the Germans. In a chaotic battle that followed, both would be destroyed and that would push the French over the CVP cap for a German win.
