Scenario AirI019

This scenario is very similar in victory conditions, setup and morale. Forces are slightly changed as well as the Germans having more OBA, but still has the Americans attacking and the Germans defending hex 0406. The number of turns has been cut in half to only 22 turns.

In my play the Americans advanced up the road toward the town at 0508 and the Germans are setup to defend this and hex 0406. The Germans move up to occupy 0406 and the surrounding hexes. They get dug in as the Americans start to engage. American OBA has some early effect, dislodging some of the digging Germans. Germans rely on Op fire and OBA to hit the Americans. The Americans move to flank the Germans from the north through the hedgerows. Several key assaults by the Americans get stalled and early FoW rolls speed the game up. In the end the Americans fail to get all the hexes cleared and the Germans win.

This scenario is good but is too similar to 18 to make it new and interesting. Of the two I would play this one as it is shorter than the 18, but has the same feel.
