The 119th US Infantry have 8 turns to seize one of the two objectives for a win...
D-Day
American Command Cards:
30th
Infantry Division Old Hickory: Motivation for Last Stand 3+ Rally 4+
P-47 2000lb
Bomb Load: AT4 FP2+
Desert
Veterans: M10 TD Skill 3+
D-Day Waffen SS Command Cards
(Not Weapons-SS I know but Panzer Lehr were, as a demonstration unit,
exceptionally well trained)
The best
infantry: Motivation 3+ Hit on 4+ Skill 3+
To reflect
the German defensive tactics of forward strongpoints backed up by deep
defences:
Machine Gun Nests and Pakfront cards, allowing these elements to act independently and be concealed and well dug-in, so that Firepower tests to destroy them must be re-rolled.
We'll leave the 119th while they regroup under cover after having bumped Panzer Lehr - they have 3 more moves to take one or other objective. To be resumed...
