I also meant to ask if you are enjoying this round / any thoughts or changes needed.

I tried to scatter a number of little tactical decisions around the board to pump up the action like the curving setup areas around the central town and the isolated overlook positons. I hope they are enhancing the scenario. I thought the airborne interdiction strike-force would be an "interesting" challenge for the relief force to encounter. Although I did not intended for them to be a major roadblock just a big speed bump.

Thanks again for playing!

I see the bridge defense forces as serving the functions of being a delayer and attriter. With the ammo load outs repaired, it adds a great deal to the game. As it is, there was a 3 to 5 net impact in tanks/heavy AFV's surviving the crossing in my game.

The fun factor would be increased if the Germans could have bought at least one big cat. Given of the number and levels of experience that the Allies were able to purchase in 76 mm AFV's, this should not throw off game balance.

Overall very well done--at least to mid game. I would seek feedback on map design, as the approach terrain to the town is significantly different (not necessarily a bad thing) for each side.

The bridge forces were definately a nuisance and added a huge wrench to
my Initial plans (offensively) but I thought they Improved the game overall.
1 big cat would have been well within the realm of fair but a whole platoon would have thrown the game out of whack (In my opinion). My armored cars were the heroes in mine and Bobs game as they did excellent recon in finding open paths and had quite a few kills on their own.

Yo Mark--it's been 3 weeks since I first sent you the last file. Is everything OK in Unicorn land?
