Scenario FaoF006

I was in the mood to play a quick scenario from 1940 before I went to bed with a low unit count and with only a few turns and this was it. The Germans are on the attack with a strong armored force and no infantry support, the French have armor but not much punch in the fire power but they do have some infantry and one small AT gun as well. The problem is, they have too much to defend and the Germans can just group the correct combinations of armor at whatever the French setup in this scenario. I had a total German victory in this scenario and feel it favors the Germans. Usually an all armor force will never take town hexes from Infantry, but the French motorcycle Infantry is too weak and too spread-out, when the Germans can just stack three armor units parked adjacent and pound away. Also the Germans have armor efficiency and a higher morale. But all is not lost if you choose to play this scenario, as it’s a good scenario to fine-tone your early war attack skills with German units and getting the correct combinations and solving the puzzle on how to best win this scenario, makes it worth a play or two. I believe it’s a much better solo scenario then a face to face. It’s a nice quick playing scenario as well.
