Do the French move first?

Germans move first, as rather prosaically indicated by the arrow adjacent to their symbol on the map.
I've add this explicitly to the text.. thanks

Ah yes, just noticed the symbol

What does the “2” included with the German Mark IV and French FT-17 designate? Does it mean these tanks earn two victory points if destroyed? Or perhaps that each tank is given two silhouette tokens? I would think it’s the former since both the British Mark IV and Whippet tanks only get one silhouette token. Thanks.

Strictly speaking it is the number of figures in the unit on the VASSAL module.

Silhouette tokens are rather obviously surrogate figures
e.g. a tank with 1 sihouette marker is equivalent to 2 figures;
a tank with 2 silhouette markers is equivalent to 3 figures

The designation therefore can be considered as a tank and a silhouette token if you wish.

Tanks are worth 2VP, but only when the final figure is

Tanks are worth 2VP, but only when the final figure is eliminated

Got it. Thanks. I just played the Claudun scenario, and enjoyed it very much. 👍 Will there be more scenarios with the FT-17 in the future?
