Scenario FaoF018

This was played against Vince over Skype. Played over only half a board, this was out most intense PG action since we started playing. I won't cover the actual play of our game for this I will refer the reader to Herr Hughes accurate if slightly rose tinted AAR. When I mark PG scenario's my guidelines are was the game memorable, was it balanced enough to keep both players interested and was it fun. This scenario was memorable and reasonably balanced and we had fun at times. It is also hard work with large stacks in a congested board, assaults which will last for many turns and will result in lots of low level morale checks, hence the 4 rating. Both Vince and I are amazed that so far this scenario has only seen German victories, I believe that this is very winnable as the French and while not bemoaning my luck if the early French shooting had been more accurate before the Germans closed into close combat and a slightly better set up in regards to the A/T guns then this battle could well have had another outcome. That said the German commander was on top form using assaults to tie down troops and also to advance through the French lines, once those Panzer's are in your rear there is little the French player can do! This scenario is hard work, good fun and recommended for the more experienced player.
