The French morale for non-tanks is 6/5. The German morale is 8/7. That is a HUGE difference. Best not assault. Except this scenario is all about controlling towns!

The French begin stronger and advance to capture towns before the German reinforcements arrive. The lumbering French FCM 36 tanks fire uphill into a town to soften the occupying Germans without much effect. French HMGs and INF assault the town. Wow! All three are demoralized and the Germans are unharmed. The French infantry manage to out-flank the smaller German force to capture the north town and the FMC 36s advance up the river road and, after the German armored car makes a quick retreat, captures the west town. The German reinforcements arrive. So much for the French advance.

The panzers took the brunt of the FMC's fire but this let the Bufla safely advance to firing position. The Germans took the initiative and the Bufla reduced one of the FMCs. Each turn thereafter the disrupted FMC leader and his subordinate platoon limp out of sight of the Bufla. Then the Bufla advances to get a clear line of sight. The German engineers make quick work of the three French infantry controlling the north town. They continue south.

The French retreat to the south town. Finally, the Bufla dispatches the remaining FMCs. The Germans are within a hex of the town. Game ends.

Each side controlled the same number of town hexes, but, after eliminating nearly all the French tanks, the Germans earned a major victory.

Fun game. Each side got to be on offense.
