Short, one map scenario, the Germans are on the attack with the outnumbered (3-1) French defending. Keys to victory are the 14 town hexes, each side receives 2pts for each controlled at the end plus the usual steps lost.

The French deployed their forces as best they could split around the two main town clusters on each side of the river (10pts & 12 pts) with the P178s and the Dragoons acting as a mobile reserve.

Due to being only 12 turns the Germans threw finesse out the window and went directly for the two main targets. They quickly overran the northern town cluster but their other force to the west struggled to get across the river at first but by then their other battalion was freed up to join the pincher on the remaining town cluster. The Bufla showed its present by dispatching several P178 platoons when the French mobile reserve counterattacked before getting KO by a French 25mm ATG. Germans had a tough go but good leadership kept them in the game for a minor victory.
