My very first ftf Panzer Grenadier, played at the Heat of Battle IV game convention held at the National WWII Museum in New Orleans.

The French earn points for destroying Germans, and for exiting units off the west edge; the Germans earn points for preventing the French from exiting. The Germans set up in woods and villages along the roads. The French infantry and trucks hung back while the tanks attempted to open a hole for them.

The German reinforcements were very late in arriving (turn 9 or 10), and the on-board tanks were unable to do much damage to the French armor. The French tanks were also unable to do much to the panzers, leaving them in place to block the French trucks. Eventually, several of the French tanks were able to bull their way past the German tanks and exit off the west edge just before the German reinforcements arrived. The French infantry and trucks were unable to make it past the German reinforcements and the Germans earned a minor victory.
