Overview:

At the initial stage of the German invasion of Poland, the XXII Corps had orders to break the defense south of Cracow, defended by the Polish 10th (Motorized) Cavalry Brigade. In charge of the brigade was Colonel St. Maczek, who immediately started to use the brigade's 121st Light Tank Company as a kind of "fire brigade", thrown in at threatened parts of the front in order to secure any breach. - - - - Maczek Fire Brigade is a tourney-sized 5.5 turn scenario. German light tanks and elite infantry from the 4th Light Division have orders to secure 12 buildings defended by Polish infantry. The "fire brigade" in the form of Vickers tanks enter as Polish reinforcements.

(VASL Log)		It was my first time playing with trucks and motorcycles and I was caught a bit off-guard by how incredibly slowly these vehicles move off-road. The length of the scenario is barely enough to make it to the other side of the board when off-roading around the village.
The first half of the village was cleared pretty fast by liberally employing smoke and VBM freezing. I then scored three somewhat lucky MG kills against the Polish AFVs, which left their armoured forces a bit overwhelmed and gave my infantry pretty much free movement through the rest of the village. The deal was sealed when two of my motorcycle squads managed to race unharmed past the lone Polish squad defending the access road to the two buildings on the far side of the village.
