Extremely challenging for the Axis defender, more like a forlorn hope with the amount of armour and support fire available to the Allies. But still highly recommended.

Maybe i'm a bit biased because i lost, but this is not a scenario i'd recommend for H2H play. The british simply get to many tanks & arty, not to mention plenty of time to get the job done, for it to be a balanced fight.

Not a bad scenario but (speaking as the British attacker) it doesn't seem like the German defender is given enough to get the job done, especially with the amount of time allowed.

I put down the PBEM balance as moderately pro British even though I won a decisive victory as Axis. I was fortunate to take out a lot of Guardsman's tanks during our match. Had a lot of fun playing this and think this scenario would be even more fun to play if the German side would get some reinforcements later on in the game.

Seemed to be a bug in blasting hedgerows as no matter how much I cleared my tanks refused to go through and to re route whole of map.
Good typical Normandy fight though, enjoyed it

Should add I still thought it pro British just that I was very unlucky in losing several tanks to mines because of the hedgerow bug.

If the British player avoids the roads and uses his sappers to clear routes through the bocage, they can easily avoid the mines and bring overwhelming firepower to bear with the numerous tanks and artillery at their disposal. Once this is done, there is very little for the German player to do other than have their pixeltruppen die as valiantly as possible inside the village!
