Scenario Dk44010

A good mixed infantry-and-armor scenario, with the British and New Zealanders defending a group of hills against the Afrika Korps. The German armor has a chance of running out of gas when moving.

Apparently the Germans gave priority to their tanks, because all of the Hetzer platoons ran out of gas before getting anywhere near their objectives. The New Zealanders' Shermans, due to being dug-in on the hills, were actually less vulnerable than the German tanks for once. They managed to take out ten steps of German tanks while losing only three of their own.

That was the difference in the scenario, as the German infantry just didn't have enough force to take the hills by themselves. Major Allied victory.
