Scenario	POCH006

This was a standard, relatively boring, scenario that requires the Jerry paratroopers to exit units and accumulate Tommy step losses. I led the Germans and the methodical & doughty CavDo managed the Brits in this 4-session play through. Both sides drew crummy leaders, with the high morale, Wehrmacht boys coming out slightly ahead with more combat modifiers. The Brits suffered a senior leader decapitation in the 8th game turn, that caused a fair measure of havoc down the chain of command.

All in all a pretty average fight. The German were mostly on defense, with only a pair of decent counterattacks and just two decent air strikes. They also managed to throw a great many combat 7-die rolls, The Tommies generally react to the Jerries and also threw many combat sevens. Eventually the Germans slide off the board, with 4 steps lost, while the Brits lose 11 steps resulting in a unfulfilling Wehrmacht victory.

This gamey scenario is in need of a rewrite. As published, it is better suited to SOLO play. It barely rates a 3 from me. Give this tedious one a pass in SHARED play.
