We’ve just finished the end of scenario 1 of the Decision at Elst Campaign game. We’re new to tanks having just played one tank-only scenario beforehand.
Having a passel of fun, but the death tally at the end seems a bit one sided.
British losses (approx):
12 squads, 1 10-2 leader, 1 crew, 3 Sherman’s (incl. firefly)
German losses:
1 squad, 1 panther.
The Brit’s have managed to take the northern ‘Hell’s Highway’ entry hex on the west a couple of buildings on the western margin and the row of buildings in the north.
We’re in this for the fun, not the competition. Given the large numbers of Brits at the start I would have expected more casualties than the Germans, but this seems a bit extreme. If this is a truly terrible start for the Brits, we’d probably like to balance it a bit for Scenario 2. Maybe Brits get 50% of their losses back rather than 25%?
Interested in people’s thoughts, particularly if you have played it before.
