This is a short (12 turns), low unit count (35 total) scenario, the keys to victory are the 10 town hexes on map 27, 2 VPs per hex, the French are spread thin trying to defend all of those town hexes, on the bright side they do have a reduced company of S35s with three tank leaders, which on paper are more than a match for the German Panzers.

Main Germany attack come from the SE while a company of PzIs feinted from the NE to try and hold the French infantry from reinforcing the southern defenders.

The S35s came out to play and tried to disrupt the German attack and was engaged by the German Panzers, with the PzIIs maneuvering to set up the crossfire bonus for the PzIII & PzIV platoons, once unlimbered the Pak36s. German armor efficiency was the difference in this short battle, especially with the PzIV who took out two steps before the French finally reduced it a step.

With their armor and 25mm ATG demoralized or KO, the Germans were able to capture enough town hexes for the victory.
