Hi All,
Just got this and I'm having a blast. Tonight will be my 6th attempt at the tutorial scenario and I figure I now have a good plan. Last nights attempt almost worked, but I didn't have enough flank forces so the enemy used their presence on the flanks to slow my advance with their ZOCs.

Has anyone actually won this one? - Just to check that it is possible! :crosseye: I'm guessing this is one of the harder scenarios? Or are my newbie tendencies really showing me up here?

Thanks
RobP

Rob:

It is definately one of the harder STARTED Scn in the series - likely harder than I should have made it. But a number of the guys did play and WIN the Scn - and with a Major victory too.

This is an action I learned about while playtesting another game by another company years ago and it was a bit of a personal eye-opener because previous to this I thought the early fighting by German and Belgian troops we a one sided affair in the Germans favour.

If I were you I wouldn't get too hung up on it. Move on to one of the other scns.
