Scenario FoF2012

Large scenario, both in terms of maps and units with the Germans tasked with clearing the French from all town hexes on maps 29, 30, 31 & 33 and controlling more town hexes on maps 26 & 27, it helps that the Germans setup on maps 29 & 30.

The French put up surprisingly good resistance, it helped that they had 8/6 morale, they were defending town hexes, could count on 5 OBA batteries and the Germans were broken up into three kampfgruppes. The French used their mobile forces: the dragoons, cavalry, P178s, AMR35s and P16s to jab and poke at the advancing Germans, causing any infantry and guns to dismount or unlimber, the French did KO a couple loaded vehicles which had the effect of keeping the ATGs slightly out of range, all but the Flak 88. What little German armor tried to eliminate or drive away the lighter French forces with their vulnerable PzIIs until the lone Pz38 platoon got into the fight. Overall, the Germans were thwarted from meeting two of their three objectives. Not a bad scenario.
