Overview:

VASL setup file under USER FILES . . .On 14th May, out of fear of an encirclement, a retreat was ordered from the fortified positions on the border with Belgium that were successfully resisting the German attack. The new positions had be reconnoitered but not prepared before the move and the Germans closely followed the French troops. Inor village was supposed to be on the rear of the front but the Germans managed to slip forces through a gap in the French line to reach it. The forward elements of the 6th Infanterie Division tried to take the village by a coup de main before the French had time to organize their defense.

2026-03-28(A) Dave Mareske vs Dan Best German winThe armored trucks took some shots at the French truck, with one exiting on Turn 1. The French had some decent tries at street fighting but failed each time. Eventually, all the French broke in the village and the Germans were able to mop up.

2023-12-13(A) nathan wegener vs Wes Vaughn German winHighlight was rolling thru town on the first turn with my AC's stopping to take pot shots at the wagon and towed gun. Rolled snakes and eliminated them. The rest of the game was spent rolling through the town building by building pushing the French back until they were all broken in turn 4 despite losing all my AC's in street fights. Nothing to stop me from exiting my truck, crew and gun along with a couple of squads of prisoners with a guarding HS. Wasn't clear to us how the French were supposed to stop the Germans.
