2020-05-06(A) O Ramaille vs Macari Samuel German winThe French tried to escape and placed some units with MMG and ATR to cover their retreat. The R35 tanks withdrew and two of them were left to cover the flank German attack. Unfortunately, the French gun is poor and quite inefficient against the German armor. The panzers have a lower armor factor but a better weaponry. The panzers thus took the better out of the French tanks and cut the retreat of the French infantry. A few men were still able to escape but not enough to claim victory with only 8/13 EVP needed.
2020-05-06(D) Macari Samuel vs O Ramaille German winThe Germans were first surprised by the speed with which the French tanks came out of the map. They then chose to block the French infantry with two tanks and take it in a vice with their troops arriving from the rear. The result turned in their favor also because of the elimination of the last French tank.
2019-01-05(A) O Ramaille vs French winThe French ran to the South but were soon caught up. However, even in motion the French tanks destroyed two panzers with critical hits while a third one was turned to wreck in close combat. The German infantry was too late to prevent the escape of 3 French tanks, 3 squads and a leader, just enough for the French to win.
2015-09-16(D) Marc Guénette vs Louis-David Plourde German winReally. really enjoyed this one. Will play it again.
2015-01-24(D) Paul Messina vs Andy Maly German winWhat a great scenario! The battle waged back-and-forth for a good portion of the game. I was finally able to break a key French stack near the end of the scenario that made the French position untenable. This is a must play for opponents of equal ability.
