Scenario FaoF047

This was a 2-session play-through of a semi-balanced, but flawed, Fall of France scenario, with a relentless and wily opponent playing the defending German side. We used the consolidation, excess initiative and smoke optional rules. We and skipped the FOW rule. I led the attacking French in what proved to be a near-hopeless enterprise, that oddly ended well for the bad-dice-rolling French side.

The French were tasked with exiting units accross the map board and eliminating as many Boche steps as possible. The German invaders score by delaying, or outright halting the the advancing French in what amounts to a meeting engagement, with a substantial number of German units already in place on the battle map. The rest came in as reinforcements on the west edge, after they began rolling for their reinforcements starting on turn 5. Unfortunately for the Boche, they did not show up until turn 9. This play-through was a see saw scenario that went back-and-forth during play that ended in a frustrating draw. Had the German reinforcements arrived on time, they would surely have truimphed in this one.
