This scenario presents an interesting problem, you can either make a quick run on the town, necessitating extravagant casualties but "making up the time line" or one can take longer to take the town but miss the time line. SINCE the "timeline" was NOT a prerequisite for the scenario, the Germans chose to try to take the town early anyway. About the neatest thing the Germans did was to stage a double pronged attack across both bridges at the same time. About the best one could do. (P.S. I AM learning how to stage a decent defense in the face of overwhelming odds.)
