Re: campaign scenario setup help
The infantry platoon in the south was successful in destroying the wooden bridge there. unfortunately the 105mm guns couldn't damage the northern bridge enough to make it collapse.
here a costly fight developed with a platoon of S-35 tanks heavily damaging my only tank and taking out 2 at rifles and a scout section because they were to aggressive. Must have been the wine and beer they stole from the belgian chateau.
The artillery group also had to take heavy losses as a group of french commandos attaked them in the woods where they were staioned. Since they didnt have any security platoon the results where the loss of the mortar and one infantry gun as well as the flak we just stole from the french.
In the center only a few infantry squads tried to cross the ridge and were easily driven back by the HMG staioned there.
Many french stayed on the western side of the river not knowing where to attack and after taking some losses the moral became to low with the french tanks starting to rout on their own.
Soon the reinforcements will arrive and the french are getting more defensive knowing that they have lost the opportunity for counterattacking. Only some polish infantry still has the motivation to counterattack but since the heavy tanks the french still have stay on the western side this small attack is turned back a few hundred meters after crossing the bridge.
Right know it looks as if the damaged tank can be saved since it only got holes in the hull and the turret is still working.
Its sitting close to the northern bridge hoping no heavy artillery will bombard.
The Morane flight also hasnt done any damge up until now. I expect them to amke at least one more strafing run maybe they manage again to attack their own troops.
Destroying the southern bridge helped a lot since half tha attackers army is sitting in front of it not knowing where to go.
