This introductory scenario pits a small German force against the entire Luxembourg counter mix, essentially a battalion of infantry with an attached Engineer company against a mixed battalion of Luxembourg regulars and militia. The Germans are tasked with clearing the road of all enemy troops and obstacles in the way of their advance. The Germans advanced on a broad front and quickly engaged the Luxembourg troops but caused relatively few casualties. The brittle morale of the Luxembourg troops allowed them to flee more often than not, and prevented them from regrouping effectively. Unfortunately for the Germans, they were unable to corral the fleeing Militia and Gendarme platoons. While they were able to inflict sufficient casualties to claim a draw, the scattered Luxembourg troops were able to maneuver themselves astride the east-west highway, securing a draw for this match. I will likely play this again and try a different tactic with the Germans. The Luxembourg troops really have no chance of winning; fighting for survival is really their only hope. An increased level of German aggression may tip the scales in their favor. |
