Scenario FaoF015

First play went pretty much as some others with the Germans merely passing by the French who were caught during baguette break shooting at Deutschdust (translation: couldn't roll worth a hoot).

Second play went with a more up-front bottleneck defense. Some decent initial AT fire by the seemingly more alert French killed two steps of PzIVD's, disrupting one. Non-leader S35's could move within five hexes of the PzII's (whose AT range is only 4 with no ability to extend) and killed off two steps. The Germans exited everything else, but the French had one last shot at a fleeing PzII at a -1 (range of 6 and OF) rolling a 10! The Germans win by pip with 7 steps exited, five destroyed with no French steps lost.

So a bit of excitement here, but it felt a bit contrived. Not a particularly interesting scenario really. Were the scenario on a single board along the long axis, maybe ...
