Overview:

On D-Day+5, the Allies were scrambling to expand their beachhead on their path to seize the prize of Caen. As part of this effort, the 6th Green Howards were given the task of occupying the village of Cristot, which intelligence reports suggested was virtually undefended. The Green Howards’ C.O., Lt. Col. Robin Hastings, was not so sure. With Shermans from the 7th Dragoon Guards in support of his infantry, he pressed on, albeit with caution. Before long, Hastings’ misgivings would prove well-founded.

2021-08-17(D) Jeff B vs Joe Arthur British winI knew from the get-go this would be a highly unlikely win for the Germans. With not even enough bodies to cover every possible victory location it would be an extremely boringly static defense as well. Trying to retake the fortified buildings would be a fool's errand, so my plan was to hold out as long as possible and go for the exit. Had I known wind blowing into the Brit's faces would develop on Turn 7 I may have given it a try at least though. As it was my troops held out until Turn 9. Turn 6 saw my Tigers race onboard and blast apart two Shermans and provide cover for the rest of my men running across he south towards the woods. But without supporting infantry in the middle it was all too easy for the Brits to line the narrow woods-road with PIATs. Meanwhile the AT gun had positioned itself toward the bottom of Board 9a to prevent my HTs from making an early break. And then we have the OBA. Bottom line is there were just too many tools for the Brits to use and, while the journey was a bit more interesting than I would've expected, the easily predictable end result tasted a bit bitter after spending 18 hours on this beast.
