That makes sense. Axis AI withdraws troops northwards, leaving gaps for you to exploit.

I'm not sure if I can get the northwestern objective in time, but against scripted AI at least rest of the objectives seem doable.

Indeed. Great if the AI scripts yield an historical outcome, more or less, but the H2H version allows room for the Axis to achieve something, and makes it harder for the Allies.

UPDATE: I just played the AI version. It was great fun, and very well set up. I didn't manage to get tanks into Antwerp by turn 5, All_American, and would love to know how you did that. I did get tanks into the city by the start of day 2. The Axis script does, in fact, withdraw a little from the ring of bunkers, as Mike Prucha hinted, and if you can find the hole it might be possible to make faster progress, but I didn't find it in time. Is this what you did, All_American, or did you somehow manage to blast your way through in 5 turns? That is beyond me, how you managed ot get up there in 5 turns...
