This is to be the first of a series of AARs covering the invasion of France using the Panzer Battles Normandy game. I hope to work through all seven scenarios one-by-one. Only after writing this up did I see the Blitz is home to an excellent AAR on the Orne bridge scenario. Had I known, I might have started with the US drops. Oh well, I would have done it eventually anyway.
I have written detailed AARs before; however, it took me nearly the entire scenario before I began to get comfortable with the format. I am not from a military background so if my banter is off, let me know. My own critique of this initial effort is that it could use more screenshots. There are a few per turn. I encourage you to jump back and forth if the described units or locations fog over in your mind. The entire battlefield is covered multiple times from different levels.
Scenario, AAR and game comments are at the end.
All comments welcome.
