Poor France. So full of hope so short on die rolls. The French began with their 3 armor each dug in in one of the town hexes. The American had their tank destroyers on the hill opposite the town with their infantry behind them and the Stuarts all on the other hill. The initial turn resulted in the tank destroyers eliminating one of the French tank platoon and the American infantry moving around the base of the hill to set up for an assault on the town. French reinforcements began moving in from the SW corner of the board as the Americans closed on the town with ineffective French opportunity fire (a sadly for the French recurring theme). While the American infantry assaulted the town, the tanks destroyer and halftracks moved east of the town to prepare for the oncoming reinforcements. The Stuarts remained on the hill. American opportunity fire from the halftracks devastated the French infantry as the Legionaires attempted to close on the town and French bombardment had no effect. As the reinforcing French armor began to move closer the Stuarts blasted them with opportunity fire. A compelling American victory as the town was captured, all the French armor destroyed and the lone French infantry platoon and a 75mm attempted to flee from the carnage. All for the cost of one M3/75.Not a great scenario but a fun start to this campaign. Perhaps if the French had better die rolls it might have been more interesting but the result was a foregone conclussion way too early. |
