2025-11-15(A) Lionel Colin vs Totilhus (Olivier) Vichy winOlivier lost the OBA early and his AT guns were not efficient enough to stop my tanks.
2025-11-15(D) O Ramaille vs Lionel Colin Vichy winThe British defense was spread out among the hills to slow down the Vichy advance. With the first French in view, the British called for offboard mortar support but they were used elsewhere. The French attacked strong and were able to eliminate sequentially the different nests of resistance with the help of the French mortar. The 2 pounder AT guns were not that much efficient to pierce the R35 armor. Only two of them were eliminated. The French were then able to wipe out the first two lines of defense and exit two R35, enough for victory.
2023-09-14(A) Eric Partizan Eric vs British win
2023-05-03(A) Andy Bagley vs Neil Brunger Vichy winInteresting scenario and probably more balanced than our experience would suggest. As the Vichy, I managed to overwhelm the Brits, but certainly had luck on my side to help me. The British OBA phone and one ATG both malf'd, the other ATG suffered a critical hit from my 81mm mortar at long range, and a British leader and squad went berserk, and were mown down trying to charge my HMG. A few more low DRs meant that by turn 5 the British had virtually nothing left, so conceded. I'd play this again though, as the terrain is interesting with lots of tricky LOSs amongst the hills and very little cover.
