In this scenario a smallish German force is defending against a reduced glider battalion supported by tanks and a substantial amount of OBA. The Germans also have some OBA and a 50mm AT gun to try to cause some problems for the American tankers. This is also a short scenario in which the Americans are tasked with the need to clear two towns and an exit from the board. As in many Airborne scenarios, the defender primarily has to keep their head down, shoot Opportunity Fire and hope to survive the ensuing assault.

The addition of some powerful OBA gives this scenario a different feel from many of the other scenarios and the OBA was able to do two critical jobs for the Americans.

First, it caused the 50mm AT gun to become disrupted permitting the American to feel comfortable moving the Shermans up to assault the town hex and the resulting column shift from combined arms helped to take the first town. The Shermans did ultimately take a step loss but only after severely compromising the defense of the town. Simultaneously, the Americans were able to advance against the second town and gain LOS on some defenders who were blocking the exit. Once the LOS was established the OBA removed the exit defenders and the remaining American force with the aid of some engineers were able to clear the second town with little trouble.

I gave this scenario a "3", not because it was a stellar play in my version but because the normal result will be much closer than mine. The American has some tough choices as to the development of their attack and these choices will leave them open to artillery and Opportunity Fire from the Germans which can severely disrupt their assault schedule and with the short scenario length this will leave the result in doubt.
