Overview:

By the end of May 1940, the catastrophic unfolding of the battle for France caused the Allies to evacuate Norway. Nevertheless, it was decided to take Narvik in order to close the campaign on a victory and lessen the earlier humiliations. On the 28th, after an artillery barrage, a company of the 2nd Battalion of the Podhalansha Light Infantry and a pair of H-39s attacked along the coastal road to secure the town of Ankenes and thus control the Beisfjord south of Narvik.
Attacker: French (2ème and 4ème Bataillon, Brigade Autonome de Chasseurs de Podhale with 342ème C.A.C.C.)
Defender: German (Kompanie 2, Gebirgsjäger-Regiment 137, Marine Battalion Freitag-Loingholen and Strosstruppe Rieger)

2021-05-17(D) Kermit Mullins vs Dan Best German winDan's French had some early luck against the Germans when they eliminated the two squads with the 9-2. Despite that success, ill-timed breaks disrupted the French attack, while the German sniper repeatedly broke squads on the north edge, stopping any advance along the north edge. By mid-game, Dan's tanks rolled into the fight and headed straight at the Germans. In a chaotic battle that followed, both would be destroyed and that would push the French over the CVP cap for a German win.

2021-02-22(A) Raoul Duke vs David Goldman French winVery tight scenario, and the French took brutal casualties in the first few turns, as the Germans executed an expert fighting withdrawal from initial positions.

Massive deployment and an armored push over Hill 534 took pressure off the center and allowed the French to close.

The last two turns were characterized by a flurry of Melees. Though initially inconclusive, enough ended in French victories to give them 10 building hexes, and a win.
