  • Brilliant scenario; the must fun we have had playing this game. After hours of blood and nerves, it came down to the last activations.

I played this game as the Americans and crushed the Germans. Given some hindsight, I think the Germans should go for the Tank Buster generals deck. They should also try to keep spread out, to minimize damage, use the hedge rows to screen your movement. Keep one stand up north to grab the American points if they do not defend it after their last reinforcements come in. Also the Jagpanzers should destory the buildings in front of the hospital to deny cover to the Americans when they smash trough the hedge row.

I don't know what to tell you about tactics,but I can tell you we had a great timewith this scenario.Really liked the bocage rules ,and also the weather deck.The Germans hung on for the win.The last weather check brought thunderstorms in round 11.If not for the storm restricting movement, I think the Americans would have won.

I also played this scenario as Americans. I took out both German tanks, had to LEAD BY EXAMPLE card, had teo squads stacked with 3 officer squads and was ready to move 5 with the officers and then be able to move 4 more with the two squads. I could have been assaulted the German hospital with 6 squads. The weather card turned up THUNDERSTORM. My oppenent who was ready to concede now realized that I could not possibly reach the objective. That thunderstorm card snatched defeat from the jaws of victory for me.. its amazing that one stupid weather card on the last weather check could so undo all the careful preparation for the final assault.
