Onwards - CASLO 1
The first of the four “Valour at Casa Berardi” scenarios, from Lone Canuck publishing, is a 5 ½ turns, all infantry fight, with 7 Canadian squads versus 4 ½ German squad equivalents. Lots of 2MF terrain for the attacking Canadians to get through to exit 5 VP off the opposite board edge.
Pre-Game –
The Germans set up a HMG Pillbox in the northern corner (boresighting the hedgeline); another HMG PB sets up forward to interdict northward movement on the Canadian left & the German heavy mortar is set to fire down the road (but boresights another hedge hex). Wire encloses the north corner & the southeast section to slow any late game exit. Four extra concealment counters were rolled up, all setting up forward as dummies; all German units set up back, except the one PB in the left flank woods.
As the Canadians look at the field, no fortifications are visible (due to the hedgelines); the few German concealed units look sparse on the Canadian left, but there’s too much open ground to contend with, so they set up to assault down the right board margin. LtMtrs & LMG on their left flank will provide Smoke & flank protection; fast running will be needed to win the day.
