Overview:

Defending part of the Dunkirk perimeter, the three battalions of the 137e R.I. were in position along the Aa Canal. The II Battalion of the 137e R.I. was attacked at several points along the canal. The fighting was fierce at the Saint-Folquin bridge where I.R. Grossdeutschland was attempting to force its way across the canal, supported by assault guns. Knowing that a French counterattack was imminent, the II/137e R.I. and two attached 75mm self-propelled AA guns were determined to slow the German advance as much as possible until then. Grossdeutschland fought its way across the Aa Canal, inflicting heavy losses on the II/137e and knocking out the French SPAA guns, but not before they destroyed several German assault guns. The II/137e launched the counterattack at 0900 hours, reinforced by five Hotchkiss H35 tanks.
Attacker: German (Elements of Infanterie-Regiment (mot) Grossdeutschland and Sturmgeschütz-Batterie 640, subordinated to Panzer- Division 1.)
Defender: French (Elements of the II/137e Régiment d’Infanterie, 21e Division d’Infanterie and the 402e Regimental Air Defense detachment and Reinforcements of II./137e R.I.)

2020-10-08(D) Andy Beaton vs Steve Pleva German winFrench got some early hits in but were massacred trying to retreat to the rail line. The Germans were over the line in force well before French reinforcements arrived so the French conceded.
2020-06-04(A) Andy Beaton vs Spencer Armstrong German winGermans took the short route and steamrolled the French defenders west of the tracks. Took some casualties but enough guys were over the tracks before the French defence gelled. French tanks and OBA reduced me to 2 good squads and a wounded 10-2 hero fighting a French squad by himself but it was enough.
For the bucket list: My Stuka was driven off by heavy AA before it could bomb anyone.
2020-05-11(A) Jeff B vs Steve Etzelmueller German winMy opponent wanted to play something from the new DFtB and selected this to defend. I told him it was going to be quite difficult for him and boy was I right. French setup restrictions force them to setup unconcealed in rather poor cover relatively close to the Germans. With a 9-2, 8-1, lots of MGs, and two StuGs, expect the French to be shot to shit - and they were. Two KIAs worth. StuGs both dropped smoke to allow a fairly safe bridge crossing, and away we were. I chose the southern route, as it offered fair protection with all the grain and woods. French were down to one good squad here by the start of Turn 2. As the French scrambled to retreat back to the elevated RR, the Germans ran fairly unopposed through the center of the board. By the end of Turn 4 they were at the RR doorstep, with every intention of going for the decisive building control VC, French did their best to reinforce this area, but without great MGs or MAs their tanks couldn't hold off the Germans and it was over after German T6. I really never even thought about using my OBA.
