Scenario POCH009

The Germans set up on the 60 meter hill. The Greeks advance around the hill staying 2 hexes away from hill. Once the Greeks are next to the hill, the Germans can roll for reinforcements. Bruce set up both reduced platoons in the same hex. This meant that the full strength platoon and MG units had more DF points. His mistake was that the paras in this scenario are 8/6 morale.

I was able to assault them. He could not get a morale shift during assault attacks. The Greeks have 14 squads. What I should have done with 22 turns to play is wait. One assault broke in a hes and I had units adjacent 60 meter hill hex. The 60 meter hill had 3 hexes. Germans occupied 2. One turn I survived a 30 FP 7 die and rolled on the 16 column No effect. This is where I moan and groan that I got 3 initiatives out of 22. We both started with 2. Around turn 17 I lost my 6th step to go to 1 initiative. When that first attack faltered and nothing happen to the para I went after the other side side of the 60 meter hill. That is when I found out that the two reduced platoons were stacked. I should have retreated and recovered the group. Then move them to the same side as the weak paras and close to the empty hex. Do a little moving to keep the full strength unit honest. If they fire, I can move into empty hex and the 2 half platoons are a risk. I can not under state how much I like this scenario. 14 Greek units against 4 sort of Germans and a variable reinforcement. Everyone should play this scenario.
